Pitch Parameters
Glide
Glide, also known as portamento, determines the
amount of time it takes for a pitch to glide from
the current note to the next note played. This ef-
fect is commonly used on synthesizers.
Glide is adjustable from a low of 0.0% (no glide)
to a high of 100% (maximum glide). A setting of
100% will take the longest time to travel from
the current note to the next note played. The ef-
fect is also dependant on the interval (distance
of pitch) between the two notes: The larger the
interval, the more noticeable the effect.
Bend Range
Bend Range sets the maximum interval of pitch
bend that can be applied to Reso with a MIDI
controller’s pitch bend wheel. This parameter is
adjustable from 0 semitones (no bend) to 12
semitones (1 octave).
Master Tune
Master Tune can be used to tune the pitch of
Reso’s output to another instrument. By default,
this parameter is set to 440.0 Hz It can be ad-
justed from a low of 430.0 Hz to a high of
450.0 Hz.
Detune Amount
Detuning is a common sound-thickening tech-
nique used on synthesizers and many effects de-
vices. Reso’s Detune Amount parameter allows
you to set the maximum amount of pitch de-
tuning that occurs when multiple voices are
stacked together using Voice Stacking. Using a
combination of voice stacking and detuning,
you can create timbres that are exceptionally
fat.
Voices can be detuned up to 50.0 cents. (One
cent is equal to 1/100th of a semitone.)
Detune Velocity
Detune Velocity controls how MIDI key velocity
affects voice detuning. In essence, this parame-
ter gives you touch-sensitive control over voice
detuning when you play Reso with a MIDI key-
board.
This parameter is adjustable from a low of
0.0 cents (no velocity-sensitive detuning) to a
high of 50.0 cents (maximum velocity-sensitive
detuning).
If Detune Velocity is set to 0.0 cents, detuning
will not change no matter how hard or soft you
strike a key on your MIDI controller. Con-
versely, if you set Detune Velocity to 50.0 cents,
a hard strike will detune voices a maximum of
50.0 cents.
Pitch parameters
Detune Velocity only has an effect when
you play Reso with a velocity-sensitive
MIDI keyboard controller.
