7. How do I Use Them? Use the Target Selector (see diagram above) to choose the target then
turn the knobs on either the Envelope or the LFO. REMEMBER to turn the Envelope on and
off for each effect (click the switch as shown). To turn off the LFO, reset the Amount (AMT)
to the middle so the knob pointing straight up.
8. Why Can't I Hear the Effect? If you're still on the Kick Drum it will be hard to hear any LFO
effect, although the Envelope might make a difference. These effects are more audible on
longer samples or on sustained instrument sounds such as 3OSC.
9. Play with the Misc settings . These functions work by automating note or MIDI data sent
to the plugin on the Channel. The echo for example sends out repeated notes with successively
lower velocity (volume). Cut groups are particularly useful as they can allow you to create
realistic percussion parts, like a closed hi-hat Channel stops an open hi-hat Channel. So one
sound on one Channel can stop another. The ‘By’ number is the one a Channel will listen for
to stop itself. The Cut channel is the signal the Channel itself sends. Notice, Cut itself, sets
both to the same number. When you load a synthesizer plugin the Arpeggiator is a lot of fun.
Click the up-arrow to the left of the Arpeggiator label and hold down any 3 notes and listen to
what it does.
