when hitting the drums. This panel is unique among BFD’s humanization functions

in that it not only applies to the Groove Librarian, but also when using the plugin as

a sound module - i.e. using the host’s sequencing functions to trigger its sounds

as single hits.

Here are a few examples showing how to interpret the graph curves. If, for

instance, you are using the Humanize Timing panel:

With a graphical shape similar to that shown in the

picture to the left, the randomization can be quite

extreme. Effectively, the graph is showing you that

there is an equal probability of all timing displace-

ments, large or small.

With the graph shape shown in this picture, there will

be a reasonable amount of randomization: most notes

will have a slight timing deviation, but there will be

the odd note which is displaced to a more extreme

degree.

When the graph looks like the one shown in this

picture, there will be no randomization of timing: the

graph is showing that there is an equal probability of

no timing deviations occurring.

The principle is exactly the same for the Humanize Velocity panel.
