Duo
When Duo mode is active, two round robins are played for each note. In other words, the note sounds,
key noises, and release sounds are all doubled. By default, the original and doubled samples are at the
same pitch and time. The controls in the Duo section enable you to adjust their pitch and timing for
creative flam, chorus, and harmony effects.
Coarse: sets the transposition of the doubled samples in semitone
steps, to a maximum of +/-1 octave.
Fine: sets the tuning of the doubled samples in cents.
Mix: blends the two sets of samples. When Mix is zero, the original
and doubled samples are equal in volume. When Mix is at -12, you
hear only the original samples. When Mix is at +12, you hear only the doubled samples.
Offset: sets the delay in milliseconds between the original and doubled samples, when a note is played.
The controls in the Duo section take effect when Duo play mode is active. When either of the
Solo modes are active, the Duo controls have no effect on the sound.
Dynamics
Attack: sets the time in milliseconds for the sound of the instrument to reach full volume when a note is
played.
Decay: sets the time in milliseconds for the sound of the instrument to die away to silence when a note
is released.
Release: sets the volume in decibels of the release samples that sound when a note stops playing.
Keys: sets the volume in decibels of the key noise samples that sound when notes are played (key down)
and released (key up).
Velocity: sets the relationship between how hard you strike the keys (MIDI velocity) and the volume of
the sound. At 0%, the volume of the sound is unaffected by how hard you play. At 100%, the volume of
the sound is strongly affected by how hard you play.
