Configuration Window
Content Size
The Content Size configuration option defines
how much waveform content Strike loads into
RAM by default. To adjust the RAM usage, select
a value from the menu that best fits your com-
puter’s system resources. Because lower values
limit the range of expressive nuance in Strike, it
is recommended that you use higher Content
Size values, if possible.
Oversampling
Using Oversampling can help avoid aliasing
noise when adjusting the tuning of Instruments
like crash cymbals, which can be rich in over-
tone content. Oversampling increases the plug-
in’s internal sampling rate to achieve higher
quality at the expense of slightly higher CPU
load.
Polyphony (Voices)
Configure the maximum number of voices (In-
strument hits played at a time) that you want to
reserve for Strike, using the Polyphony setting.
Strike intelligently manages the number voices
to suit the current Setting’s requirements. If you
experience problems with system resources such
as audio drop-outs, decrease the number of
voices.
Beat Sync
The Beat Synchronization setting defines how
Strike synchronizes to the Pro Tools session.
There are three settings:
Off Synchronizes to the Pro Tools session tempo,
but not to the bar|beat position. When a Pattern
is triggered, it synchronizes to the currently
playing Pattern, or if no Pattern is playing, it
plays immediately, from the start of the new
Pattern. This is the default setting.
Bar Synchronizes to the Pro Tools session tempo
and to the current bar position. This means a
Pattern that is triggered in the last quarter of a
bar will not play from the start but from the cor-
responding position in the Pattern, and will
start playing a new bar at the same time
Pro Tools does.
