The Included VST Instruments
Spector
Detune
Detunes the oscillators (in all oscillator modes except “1Osc”). Low values give gentle
chorus-like detuning; raising the control detunes the oscillators by several semitones
for clangorous special effects.
Raster
This parameter reduces the number of harmonics present in the oscillator waveforms
in the following manner:
Portamento
This parameter makes the pitch glide between the notes you play. The parameter
setting determines the time it takes for the pitch to glide from one note to the next.
Turn the knob clockwise for longer glide time.
The “Mode” switch allows you to apply glide only when you play a legato note (when
switch is set to Legato). Legato is when you play a note without releasing the
previously played note. Note that Legato mode only works with monophonic parts.
Spectrum Filter Sections
This is where you create the contours (frequency response characteristics) for the two
128 pole resonant spectrum filters “A” and “B”.
• You can use the Preset pop-up menu to select a preset contour if you like.
• To change the contour, click and draw with the mouse.
Once you change the selected contour, it is labeled as “Custom” in the Preset
field above the display, indicating that you’re no longer using one of the presets.
3 Osc 3 oscillators with the same pitch.
2 Osc 2 oscillators with the same pitch.
2 Osc 1:2 One oscillator with base pitch and one pitched one octave down.
1 Osc A single oscillator. In this mode, the Detune and Cut II parameters are not
active.
Setting Description
0 All harmonics present.
1 Only every second harmonic present.
2 Only every third harmonic present.
… …and so on.
