91 AuronThe Voice Page Duration Controls the modulation depth of the grain duration modulation. Cutoff Controls the modulation depth of the filter cutoff modulation. Mod Wheel Settings Vib Freq Controls the frequency of the second LFO that is used for pitch modulation (vibrato). Vib Depth Controls the depth of the vibrato modulation. Position Controls the influence of the mod wheel on the grain position. Formant Controls the influence of the mod wheel on the grain formant. Duration Controls the influence...

92 AuronThe Voice Page Fixed Pitch Activate this option if you do not want the sample to be transposed over the keyboard. When you work with short grain durations and “Duration Key Follow” is activated, the pitch of the played key still follows the keyboard, and only the frequency response changes. Pitchbend Up/Down Here, you can set the range for the modulation that is applied when you move the pitchbend wheel. Glide You can use this parameter to bend the pitch between two notes that follow each...

93 AuronThe Filter Section The Filter Section Filter Parameters Filter Shape The filter shapes are the same as on the Filter subpage, see “Filter Shape” on page 39. Cutoff Controls the cutoff frequency of the filter. Resonance This parameter emphasizes the frequencies around the cutoff. At higher resonance settings, the filter self-oscillates, which results in a ringing tone. Distortion This parameter adds distortion to the signal. The following distortion types are available: Env Amount Controls the...

94 AuronThe Amp Section The Amp Section Amp Parameters Level Controls the overall volume of the sound. Velocity Controls the level modulation from velocity. At 0, all notes are played with the same level. Amp Envelope Attack Controls the attack time of the amplifier envelope. Decay Controls the decay time of the amplifier envelope. Sustain Sets the sustain level of the amplifier envelope. Release Sets the release time of the amplifier envelope. The Arp Page This page contains the same parameters as the...

95 Trium Introduction Trium was designed to create modern and rich sounds. It comes with three 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 keyboard, velocity, and LFO, but also by the...

96 TriumThe Osc Page The Osc Page The Oscillator page contains the same parameters as the Oscillator subpage, see “The Oscillator Subpage” on page 34. The following additional parameter is available: Filter Envelope Here, you can specify how much the modulation of the filter envelope influences the oscillator waveform. This parameter is only available for oscillator types that allow waveform modulation. The Sub Page The parameters for the sub oscillator, the ring modulator, and the noise generator...

97 TriumThe Sub Page Mono Activates monophonic playback. Retrigger When this option is activated, a note that was stolen is retriggered if you still hold the stolen note when releasing the new one. This lets you play trills by holding one note and quickly and repeatedly pressing and releasing another note, for example. Trigger Mode Defines the trigger behavior for new notes. The following settings are available: Filter Section Filter Shape The filter shapes are the same as on the Filter subpage, see...

98 TriumThe Amp Section Filter Envelope Attack Controls the attack time of the filter envelope. Decay Controls the decay time of the filter envelope. Sustain Controls the sustain level of the filter envelope. Release Controls the release time of the filter envelope. The Amp Section Amp Parameters Level Controls the overall volume of the sound. Velocity Controls the level modulation from velocity. At 0, all notes are played with the same loudness. Amp Envelope Attack Controls the attack time of the...

99 TriumThe Arp Page Pitch Controls the modulation depth of the pitch modulation. Cutoff Controls the modulation depth of the filter cutoff modulation. Osc1/2/3 Wave These parameters control the modulation depth of the waveform modulation of the three main oscillators. These controls are only available if the selected oscillator type supports waveform modulation. Mod Wheel Parameters Vib Freq Controls the frequency of the second LFO that is used for pitch modulation (vibrato). Vib Depth Controls the...

100 Voltage Introduction Voltage is a two-oscillator and noise synthesizer that can be used for synth basses, but it also allows you to create any kind of classic monophonic and polyphonic synth sound. With the integrated arpeggiator and step sequencer, you can create anything from sequencer lines to stepped chords. The two oscillators and the noise generator are followed by a 24 dB low-pass filter. The filter can be modulated using modulation sources like the keyboard, velocity, and LFO, but also...
