Logic Pro Quick Sampler Pitch controls
Quick Sampler Pitch controls affect the playback pitch behavior of the current audio file.
You can control pitch over time with a dedicated multimode envelope. Parameters that are
modulation targets are indicated by a white dot when a note is played. The modulation
range is shown as an orange ring around target parameters.
If you’re new to synthesizers and the concepts behind components such as filters, LFOs,
and envelopes, see Synthesizer basics overview.
Quick Sampler Pitch parameters
• Coarse knob and field: Tune the instrument in semitone steps.
• Fine knob and field: Tune the instrument in cents. One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
• Glide knob and field: Set the amount of time it takes to slide between the pitches of
each played note.
• Env Depth knob and field: Set the amount of envelope modulation.
• Key Tracking button: Turn on to change the pitch and speed of sample playback when
different notes are played. Turn off to play the sample at the original pitch and speed
when any key is struck.
• Bend Range pop-up menu: Set the pitch bend range in semitones.
• Envelope display: Drag points or lines in the display to adjust envelope parameter
values. Alternatively, drag vertically, or double-click on envelope parameter fields to
type in values.
• Envelope Type pop-up menu: Choose the envelope type. This alters the number and
appearance of envelope parameter fields and the graphical envelope display. The
envelope types shown are abbreviations for the controls in the envelope shape: AR is
an envelope that provides Attack and Release controls. AHDSR provides Attack, Hold,
Decay, Sustain, and Release parameters.
• Attack handle and field: Drag horizontally to set the time it takes for the envelope to
reach the initial level. Drag the field vertically.
• Hold handle and field: Drag horizontally to set the time the full level is held, following
the attack phase, before the decay phase begins. Drag the field vertically.
