Element Description
Fade (Gate Mode only) Set a simple fade-in fade-out amount to avoid pops or clicks that may
occur when using the Gate mode. To increase the fade of Gate mode,
turn the Fade knob clockwise by clicking and dragging upwards. To
decrease the fade, turn the Fade knob counter-clockwise by clicking
and dragging downwards. Press the [SHIFT] button on your computer
keyboard while turning the knob to increase or decrease the fade in
finer increments.
Tune Transpose the tune (range: -36 – +36 semitones) of the Audio plug-
in. You can use this knob to set the playback pitch of the loop to 'C',
and then the loop's pitch will match the pitch of Notes programmed
into the Pattern.
To increase the tuning of the waveform, turn the Tune knob clockwise
by clicking and dragging upwards. To decrease the tuning of the
waveform, turn the Tune knob counter-clockwise by clicking and
dragging downwards. Press [SHIFT] button on your computer
keyboard while turning the knob to increase or decrease the tuning in
cents.
Pitchbend Set the Pitchbend range (-12 – +12) for the Audio plug-in which is
relative to the Tune. This parameter controls the affect of the Pitch
Wheel/Slider on your MIDI controller.
To increase the range of the Pitchbend, turn the Pitchbend knob
clockwise by clicking and dragging upwards. To decrease the range of
the Pitchbend, turn the Pitchbend knob counter-clockwise by
clicking and dragging downwards. Press the [SHIFT] button on your
computer keyboard while turning the knob to increase or decrease the
Pitchbend range in cents.
