111Width
Narrows the stereo width of the grain oscillator. It is applied after the grain
oscillator and does not affect the stereo width of the actual sample. At a setting
of 0 %, the output of the grain oscillator is monophonic.
Auto Gain
Allows you to automatically adjust the level of grains using quieter sample parts.
This way, you get a more homogeneous signal and you can use a quiet part of a
sample as source.
Grains
Allows you to specify the number of grains, from 1 to...

112Freq
Controls the frequency of the modulation, that is, the speed of the LFO.
Sync
If Sync is activated, the frequency is set in fractions of beats.
Position
Controls the modulation depth of the grain position modulation.
Formant
Controls the modulation depth of the grain formant modulation.
Duration
Controls the modulation depth of the grain duration modulation.
Cutoff
Controls the modulation depth of the filter cutoff modulation.

Polyphony
If Mono mode is deactivated, you can use this parameter to specify how many
notes can be played simultaneously.
Octave
Adjusts the pitch in octave steps.
Coarse
Adjusts the pitch in semitone steps.
Fine
Allows you to fine-tune the pitch in cent steps.
Fixed Pitch
Activate this option if you do not want the sample to be transposed over the
keyboard. If you work with short grain durations and Duration Key Follow is
activated on the Osc page, the pitch of...

example.
Trigger Mode
Defines the trigger behavior for new notes.
•Normal triggers a new note when the previous note gets stolen. The
sample and the envelope of the new note are triggered from the start.
To minimize discontinuities, use the Fade Out parameter of the zone.
•Resume does not always trigger a new note.
If the new note stays within the same zone, the envelope is retriggered, but
resumes...

115•BR12+LP6 and BR12+LP12 are combinations of a band-reject filter with 12
 dB/oct and a low-pass filter with 6 and 12 dB/oct, respectively. Frequencies
around and above the cutoff are attenuated.
•BP12+BR12 is a band-pass filter with 12 dB/oct plus a band-reject filter
with 12 dB/oct. Frequencies below, above, and around the cutoff are
attenuated.
•HP6+BR12 and HP12+BR12 are combinations of a high-pass filter with 6
and 12 dB/oct and a band-reject filter with 12 dB/oct....

Sustain
Controls the sustain level of the filter envelope.
Release
Controls the release time of the filter envelope.

Controls the overall volume of the sound.
Velocity
Controls the level modulation from velocity. At 0, all notes are played with the
same level.

Trium
Trium was designed to create modern and rich sounds. It comes with 3 oscillators, a sub
oscillator, a ring modulator, and a noise generator. With the integrated arpeggiator and step
sequencer, you can create anything from sequencer lines to stepped chords.
The oscillators are followed by a multi-mode filter that offers a large number of different
filter shapes. The filter can be modulated using modulation sources like the...

118(sine, triangle, saw, or square) is reset with each full wave cycle of the
master oscillator. This means that a single oscillator can produce a
rich sync-sound without using other oscillators as slave or master. The
Waveform parameter adjusts the pitch of the slave oscillator, producing the
typical sync sound.
•CM (cross modulation) provides a combination of two oscillators where
a master oscillator is modulating the pitch of a slave oscillator (sine,
triangle, saw, or...

119•Spread narrows or widens the stereo panorama. With a setting of 0 %, you
create a mono signal, and with 100 %, you create a stereo signal.
Sub Page
The Sub page contains the parameters for the sub oscillator, the ring modulator, and the
noise generator.
Activate the sub oscillator, the ring modulator, and the noise generator by clicking their On/
Off buttons.
NOTE
Deactivate the sub oscillator, the ring modulator, and the noise generator if they are not
needed, because...

120Ring Modulation Level
Adjusts the output level of the ring modulation.
Noise Generator
The Noise parameter is used for non-pitched sounds. In addition to standard white and pink
noise, there are also band-pass filtered versions of white and pink noise.
Noise Type
The sound color of the noise. You can choose between standard and band-pass
filtered (BPF) versions of white and pink noise.
Noise Level
Adjusts the output level of the noise generator.
