DSI Mopho SoundEditor - Introduction
Welcome to SoundEditor, a full-featured Editor and Sound Development tool for the
Dave Smith Instruments (DSI) Mopho synthesizer.
SoundEditor provides the ultimate editing and sound development experience by
displaying all Mopho Program parameters in a single, intuitive graphical interface. The
interface allows you to view the complete details of any Program at a glance and edit any
parameter using the mouse or computer keyboard. It allows you to see how the factory
Programs are put together, or to freely experiment to see what you can create. Programs
can be auditioned from SoundEditor at any time over the full range of notes (C0 - C8)
without the need for a separate MIDI controller.
SoundEditor is available in two versions: a Light Edition (free), and a Pro Edition. Both
versions offer the full Program editing capabilities described above, with the Pro Edition
offering these additional features:
• A Librarian that allows you to compile, organize and save Programs in Libraries
for easy storage and retrieval. An unlimited number of Library les can be
created.
• A Program Genetics function, where you can create entire banks of new sounds
from any two source Programs.
• A Morpher function, allowing you to smoothly transition (morph) between any
two Programs as you audition the sound in real time.
• Phantom Program Banks, which allow you to have up to 16 virtual Program
banks available at any time.
• A Snapshots function that allows you to con gure multiple UNDO points while
editing a Program.
• Enhanced Sequencer functionality that allows you to create, modify, and store
an unlimited number of Sequencer les that can be applied to any Mopho
Program.
This manual describes the functions and features found in both the Light and Pro
Editions. To get the most from SoundEditor, please read this User Guide carefully.
We hope you enjoy using SoundEditor for your Mopho synthesizer!
