Voice Section

Octave

Adjusts the pitch in octave steps.

Pitchbend Up/Pitchbend Down

Determines the range for the modulation that is applied when you move the pitchbend wheel.

Glide

Allows you to bend the pitch between notes that follow each other. You achieve the best results in Mono mode.

Fingered

Activate this parameter to glide the pitch only between notes that are played legato.

Mono

Activates monophonic playback.

Retrigger

This option is only available in Mono mode. If Retrigger is activated, a note that was stolen by another note is retriggered if you still hold the stolen note when you release the new one.

This way, you can play trills by holding one note and quickly and repeatedly pressing and releasing another note, for example.

Trigger Mode

Defines the trigger behavior for new notes.

  • Normal triggers a new note when the previous note gets stolen. The sample and the envelope of the new note are triggered from the start.

    To minimize discontinuities, use the Fade Out parameter of the zone.

  • Resume does not always trigger a new note.

    If the new note stays within the same zone, the envelope is retriggered, but resumes at the level of the stolen note. The pitch of the zone is set to the new note.

    If the new note plays in a different zone, the sample and the envelope of the new note are triggered from the start.

  • Legato does not always trigger a new note.

    If the new note stays within the same zone, the envelope keeps running. The pitch of the zone is set to the new note.

    If the new note plays in a different zone, the sample and the envelope of the new note are triggered from the start.

  • Resume Keeps Zone does not trigger a new note upon note stealing. The envelope resumes at the level of the stolen note and the pitch of the zone is set to the new note, even if the new note plays in a different zone.

  • Legato Keeps Zone does not trigger a new note upon note stealing. The envelope keeps running and the pitch of the zone is set to the new note, even if the new note plays in a different zone.

Note

If Resume or Legato are selected, you might hear an unnatural attack, depending on the sample. To avoid this, activate Use Start Range on the Glide tab in the Voice Control section for the zone.
