4. Filter: Switches on a filter which influences the sound. "Filter type" allows
you to select a filter type. "Cut-off" regulates the filter frequency, "Resonance"
controls the strength of the amplification of the filter frequency. "Velocity"
specifies how strongly beat should influence the filter frequency, and the
volume can be balanced using the "Gain" controller. The filter envelope (ADSR
slider) influences the filter frequency depending on the time.
5. Delay: Switches on an echo effect, "Time" controls the delay time, "Level"
controls the strength of the echo sound.
6. Reverb: Switches on a reverb effect, "Time" controls the delay time, "Level"
controls the strength of the echo sound.
7. Value display: The value display shows the exact value of the parameter
which was just modified.
8. Dynamic range: Usually, the relationship between the created volume and
MIDI velocity is proportional. Since some MIDI keyboards produce a velocity
which is too hard for loud sounds or the other way around, this behavior can
be balanced out with the "MIDI input curve". The dynamics of the sound can
be influenced with "dynamic" and "dynamic curve", i.e. the relationship
between the quietest and loudest sounds.
9. Voices: Here you can control the amount of voices played simultaneously. If
notes are no longer played during fast passages, you can increase the amount
of voices here (performance will not be as good).
10. Keyboard: Here you can preview the Vita sounds. This only works during
playback or recording.
Revolta 2
Revolta 2 is a further development of Revolta. It is polyphonic and playable
with up to 12 tones, including an additional noise generator, a step sequencer,
and an extra-flexible modulations matrix. An effects section with 9 different
effects and presets (created by a professional designer) make it a full-fledged
synthesizer for all kinds of lead, sequence, and pad sounds.
REVOLTA 2 has a whole array of presets. The sounds have been created by
professional sound engineers and demonstrate the huge potential of this
instrument from the word start. First off, however, we would like to encourage
you to try out the various control functions and to experiment as much as you
like. The sky's the limit to your creativity.
