Any Silent Way Soundplane plug-in loaded now talks to the Learner behind the scenes to
receive the OSC information. You need one plug-in per voice, or per touch, as the Sound-
plane client refers to it. Set the ‘touches’ control in the client to the desired number of
voices and then add the same number of Silent Way Soundplane plug-ins to your setup.

Please note that the current version of Silent Way Soundplane supports the OSC format of
the Soundplane client v1.0 and above. The previous format used by earlier Soundplane
clients is no longer supported.

Voice ID

Each plug-in is told which voice it represents with it’s “ID”
control. Normally you would set these to 1, 2, 3 etc. up to
the number of voices in use.

Gate Z

The other control in this section is a button labelled “Gate
Z”. If this is active, the ‘z’ (pressure) value will be forced to
zero when the voice/touch is not active. Otherwise, the pres-
sure output holds its last value as the touch ends.

Calibration

To output a pitch CV from the Soundplane client’s note information, the Silent Way
Soundplane plug-in uses a calibration profile, exactly as created and used by the Silent
Way Voice Controller (

below

). Refer to the Voice Controller documentation for details on

the calibration process.

The Soundplane plug-in also has buttons for creating preset ES-4 or ESX-
4CV calibrations, again just like those in the Voice Controller. There is also a
‘Transfer’ button, which directly transfers the calibration from the last-
calibrated Voice Controller, without the need to save and load the calibra-
tion to/from disk.

Output Matrix

Silent Way Soundplane’s

Output Matrix will also be
familiar to users of the
Voice Controller. It defines
what appears at the plug-
in’s six outputs, by mixing
together the various possi-
ble output signals.
