Chapter 13 Sculpture 308
Set the range for the basic bass sound
To more realistically replicate the dierent tonal ranges of the bass, use Sculpture’s
scaling function.
When turned on, the key-scaling function is used to adjust the timbre of the sound, independent
of pitch. Before using the blue sliders to do this, try the Resolution parameter.
m Click the Keyscale button at the bottom of the Material Pad. The key scale below C3 is displayed
in green, the range above in light blue. The Material Pad with its Keyscale parameters activated is
shown here:
Note: The most relevant performance range for basses is found exclusively below C3. For this
reason, you should make use of the green sliders to set the actual timbre of the sound. The
primary sliders found around the ring determine the timbre of the sound above C3. For the
moment, ignore the blue sliders (which control high key scaling) and simply set them to the
same positions as the main sliders.
