No automatic copying: This option prevents automatic copying of plug-ins when you split
or copy objects.
Load/Save patches/banks: Save an instrument's settings and sounds. The standard
formats for this are: *.fxp for patches or *.fxb for whole banks. Several instruments possess
their own patch/bank format. Settings are then loaded and saved directly via the
instrument's interface.
Set parameters randomly: Use this function to set all parameters of an instrument to a
random value. For synthesizers, this option can cause surprising results, and it provides
interesting results for sound design thanks to random generation of new sounds. Note,
however, that parameters may only be set when they are accessible via the interface. With
some very complex virtual synthesizers, e.g. modular systems, some parameters may not
be modifiable using this option. Note that due to the random placement of various
parameters, very extreme sounds may be generated. This may cause no sound to be
produced at all or extremely loud volumes and frequency ranges. For this reason, keep an
eye on the preview volume while experimenting with this function.
Automate next parameter: The next parameter which you change during playback will be
recorded via automation. You may also do this by holding "Ctrl + Alt" while clicking and
changing the parameters with the mouse.
Learn hardware controller: Activate this function to learn your hardware controller.
1. Grab and move the plug-in element that you want to learn
2. Move the element on the hardware controller you selected
Note:
The hardware controller element must have been learned in the hardware controller setup
beforehand and may not be empty.
Learned elements permanently modify the internal mode in the hardware controller setup.
Assignment is also available later for other projects.
Assignment may be cleared again via the "Restore modes" button beside the internal mode
in the hardware controller setup
Detailed information about adding hardware controllers is provided under "Hardware
controller -> Learn controller for plug-in/mixer elements (view page 372)"
