Directing MIDI to the Rotary
For real-time MIDI control of the Speed parameter, MIDI
must be directed to the Rotary.
Whenever the Rotary has been added as an insert ef-
fect (for an audio track or an FX channel), it will be avail-
able on the Output Routing pop-up menu for MIDI tracks.
If Rotary is selected on the “out:” menu, MIDI will be directed to the plug-
in from the selected track.
Tranceformer
Tranceformer is a ring modulator effect, in which the in-
coming audio is ring modulated by an internal, variable fre-
quency oscillator, producing new harmonics. A second
oscillator can be used to modulate the frequency of the
first oscillator, in sync with the Song tempo if needed.
Ö Note that clicking and dragging in the display allows
you to adjust the Tone and Depth parameters at the same
time!
Slow Fine adjustment of the high rotor Slow speed.
Fast Fine adjustment of the high rotor Fast speed.
Accel. Fine adjustment of the high rotor acceleration time.
Amp Mod High rotor amplitude modulation.
Freq Mod High rotor frequency modulation.
Slow Fine adjustment of the low rotor Slow speed.
Fast Fine adjustment of the low rotor Fast speed.
Accel. Fine adjustment of the low rotor acceleration time.
Amp Mod Adjusts amplitude modulation depth.
Level Adjusts overall bass level.
Phase Adjusts the phasing amount in the sound of the high rotor.
Angle Sets the simulated microphone angle. 0 = mono, 180 =
one mic on each side.
Distance Sets the simulated microphone distance from the
speaker in inches.
Output Adjusts the overall output level.
Mix Adjusts the mix between dry and processed signals.
Parameter Description
Parameter Description
Waveform
buttons
Sets the pitch modulation waveform.
Tone Sets the frequency (pitch) of the modulating oscillator
(1 to 5000Hz).
Depth Governs the depth of the pitch modulation.
Speed If tempo sync is on, this is where you specify the base note
value for tempo-syncing the effect (1/1 to 1/32, straight,
triplet or dotted). Note that there is no note value modifier
for this effect. If tempo sync is off, the modulation speed
can be set freely with the Speed knob, without sync to
tempo.
Tempo sync
on/off
The button above the Speed knob is used to switch tempo
sync on or off. The button is lit when tempo sync is on.
On button Turns modulation of the pitch parameter on or off.
Mono button Governs whether the output will be stereo or mono.
Output Adjusts the output level of the effect.
Mix Sets the level balance between the dry signal and the
effect.
