Screen Element Description
Choke Group You can choose one of the 8 Choke Groups here or leave this option set to
Off. If you assign more than one Sound to the same Choke Group, they will
cancel each other out. This is a behavior you can find in vintage drum ma-
chines (typically used to “choke” the open hi-hat with the closed one), but
also in monophonic synthesizers that are only capable of playing one note
at a time.
Glide If Legato is selected, this allows for a portamento effect between consecu-
tive steps.
Pitchbend Here you can adjust how the Sound reacts on incoming MIDI Pitchbend
messages from an external MIDI controller or your host application. For
more information on how to setup your Sounds to receive MIDI, refer to
section ↑4.10.1, Sound MIDI Batch Setup.
Engine Controls
Mode This allows you to determine the mode of the sampling engine. Available
options are Standard and Vintage.
Model If you choose Vintage in Mode, you can select between two Models, which
emulate the sound of the MPC60 and SP1200. The sonic characteristics
of these legendary Samplers are often used in Hip-Hop and similar genres
of music.
Filter If you choose S1200 (see above), you can further shape the emulation by
activating a filter here. The available filters are: None (no filter), Low, Lo-
Mid, Hi-Mid, and High.
