The included effect plug-ins
• By starting playback and editing the patterns for the cut-
off and resonance parameters, you can hear how your filter
patterns affect the sound source connected to StepFilter
directly.
Selecting new patterns
• Created patterns are saved with the project, and up to 8
different cutoff and resonance patterns can be saved in-
ternally.
Both the cutoff and resonance patterns are saved together in the 8 Pattern
memories.
• To select new patterns you use the pattern selector.
New patterns are all set to the same step value by default.
Pattern Selector
Using pattern copy and paste to create variations
You can use the Copy and Paste buttons below the pattern
selector to copy a pattern to another pattern memory loca-
tion, which is useful for creating variations on a pattern.
• Select the pattern you wish to copy, click the Copy but-
ton, select another pattern memory location and click Paste.
The pattern is copied to the new location, and can now be edited to cre-
ate variations using the original pattern as a starting point.
StepFilter parameters
ToneBooster
ToneBooster is a filter that allows you to raise the gain in a
selected frequency range. It is particularly useful when in-
serted before AmpSimulator in the plug-in chain (see
“AmpSimulator” on page 7), greatly enhancing the tonal
varieties available.
The following parameters are available:
Parameter/
Value
Description
Base Cutoff This sets the base filter cutoff frequency. Cutoff values
set in the Cutoff grid window are values relative to the
Base Cutoff value.
Base Resonance This sets the base filter resonance. Resonance values
set in the Resonance grid window are values relative to
the Base Resonance value. Note that very high Base
Resonance settings can produce loud ringing effects at
certain frequencies.
Glide This will apply glide between the pattern step values,
causing values to change more smoothly.
Filter Mode This slider selects between low pass (LP), band pass
(BP) or high pass (HP) filter modes (from left to right
respectively).
Sync 1/1 to 1/32
(Straight, Triplet
or Dotted)
This sets the pattern beat resolution, i.e. what note val-
ues the pattern will play in relation to the tempo.
Output Sets the overall volume.
Mix Adjusts the mix between dry and processed signal.
Parameter Description
Tone This sets the center filter frequency.
Gain Allows you to adjust the gain of the selected frequency
range by up to 24dB.
Width This sets the resonance of the filter.
Mode This sets the basic operational mode of the filter; Peak or
Band pass.
