The Parameter Offset Row
In this row you can view and enter offset values per step for any parameter in the
Synthesizer section framed in yellow. Editing parameters themselves is done, as before,
using the controls in the Synthesizer section. In addition, it is however possible to edit
offset values directly in the offset row.
Note: These have an effect only in relation to the actual parameter value. In other
words: a value entered into the parameter offset row will be either added to the value
set in the Synthesizer section (if the offset value is positive) or subtracted (if the offset
value is negative).
Entering Offsets
By clicking in the parameter offset row you select the step into which you would like to
enter a value. Every following parameter change made in the Synthesizer section will
be recorded as an offset value for this step in the parameter offset row. To provide a
better overview, the parameter offsets in the Synthesizer section are displayed by a
yellow range of values. To enter an offset for a new parameter, click-drag on any yellow-
outlined parameter in the Synthesizer section.
Once a parameter offset has been created for a given parameter on a given step, this
will be represented in two ways. First, a yellow bar on the parameter will be drawn
from the original parameter to the new parameter. In the Parameter offset row, the
offset from the original parameter is represented as a yellow line starting from the zero
point and going up for positive offsets or down for negative offsets.
