14 ES M
This chapter introduces you to Logic’s ES M synthesizer.
The monophonic ES M (ES Mono) is a good starting point if you’re looking for bass
sounds that punch through your mix.
Parameters of the ES M
8, 16, 32
The 8, 16, and 32 buttons set the ES M’s octave transposition.
Glide
The ES M permanently works in a fingered portamento mode, with notes played in a
legato style resulting in a glide (portamento) from pitch to pitch. The speed of the glide
is set with the Glide parameter. At a value of 0, no glide effect occurs.
Mix
Mix crossfades between a sawtooth wave and a 50% rectangular wave, which is heard
one octave lower.
Cutoff
This parameter sets the cutoff frequency of the resonance-capable dynamic lowpass
filter. Its slope is 24 dB/Octave.
