Stereo (Key)
Panning position (left/right) is determined by MIDI note number. Dependent on
settings, the further up/down the keyboard you play, the more the voice signal is
panned left/right.
Stereo (Pickup)
Spreads the two pickups across the stereo base. In other words, the pickup position,
combined with this parameter, will be spread further towards/from the left/right stereo
channels.
Note: You can create animated “width” and “chorus” effects by modulating the Pickup
Position parameters with an LFO or other modulator.
Amplitude Envelope Parameters
This is a “classic” analog synthesizer ADSR envelope that scales the Pickup signals before
passing them on to the Waveshaper and Filter. This approach/positioning of the
Amplitude Envelope at this point in the signal path produces more natural sounding
results when the Waveshaper is used.
Note: Even with long decay/release times, the sound may decay quickly. This can be
caused by high Inner or Media Loss values (in the String material section) or by Objects
(2 or 3) that are used to “damp” the string.
Attack—Soft
The Attack parameter features two sliders. The lower slider determines the Attack time,
when the keyboard/incoming note data is played at minimum velocity.
Attack—Hard
The upper Attack slider determines the Attack time when the keyboard/incoming note
data is played at maximum velocity.
