The included VST Instruments
Using Embracer in Surround Mode
When you want to enjoy Embracer in 3D, set it up in sur-
round mode and listen to it on a surround system. Let’s
assume you have a surround monitoring system set up
with your VST mixer and your VST output connections are
properly set up.
1. Open an instance of Embracer in the VST instruments
rack and set it to surround mode.
2. When you open the mixer you will see two separate
stereo channels for the Embracer. The first is titled “Em-
bracer” and the second “Embracer rear”.
3. Assign both channel outputs to the surround output
bus.
The two channel strips will now show independent surround panners. By
default, the first output pair is assigned to the front left and right channels
and the second output pair to the rear left and right channels. The sur-
round width can be controlled with the “width” parameter.
4. Double-click on the surround panner to open its con-
trol panel. Set the “Mono/Stereo” parameter to either
“Y-Mirror”, “X-mirror” or “XY-mirror”. You can now freely
adjust the surround panning to your taste.
5. If your surround configuration includes a center or LFE
channel, you can also add some of Embracer’s signal to
the center or LFE channels. Feel free to experiment to find
out what works best in a given project and mix.
Monologue – Monophonic Analog
Modeling Synthesizer (Cubase only)
Monologue is a monophonic analog synthesizer based on
physical modeling technology. It offers full, rich and color-
ful sounds without consuming a lot of CPU power. The
Monologue synthesizer is the perfect tool for bass, lead
and sequenced sounds.
The Monophonic Analog Modeling Synthesizer has the
following properties:
• 2 oscillators with sawtooth, square and triangle waveforms.
• An additional noise generator for white noise.
• Monologue has two filters: a high pass filter and a versatile
multimode filter.
• Monologue has a single LFO.
• Monologue has 4-stage ADSR mod and amp envelopes.
• Monologue has an effects section with chorus, phaser, and
flanger effects, plus separate delay and overdrive units.
• Monologue has a X/Y matrix pad for additional realtime modu-
lation with access to all Monologue parameters.
