What's New in the RMV
What's New in the RMV
•
The RMV's user interface has been completely redesigned. The instrument now
features 48 Pads displayed on three 4x4 panels. This means that the user
interfaces now matches hardware drum machines more closely. In addition to this,
there are six Loop Panels, a Send Effects section and a Master section. The Rear
Panel has been moved to the Setup Panel.
•
A dedicated, universal drum synthesizer has been added to the RMV's Audio
Modules. The new drum synthesizer features an oscillator with a wide frequency
range, multiple source waveforms, a noise oscillator with a multimode filter, and a
wide range of modulation possibilities. The drum synthesizer is simple, versatile and
sounds amazing! We're confident that you won't need any other drum synthesizer.
Six independent Loop Players are available. Each Loop Player can be used to load
and playback audio loops in REX format. In addition to this, audio samples can be
loaded and manually or automatically sliced. Slice start and end points, as well as
slice sensitivity are user-definable. Slices can be opened and edited in an external
editor and then reloaded into the RMV. All slice editing is non-destructive. Each
slice can be individually processed by various envelopes, LFOs, a Filter, a complete
Modulation Matrix, and can be processed using Insert and Send effects. Multiple
Slices can be edited simultaneously using Edit Groups.
•
Each of the instrument's 48 Pads has access to three Insert Effects Racks, each of
which can be set to one of nine different Effects Units. The available effects include
Delays, Reverbs, WahWah, Distortion and Filter, Equalizer, Compressors, Flanger
and Phaser.
•
Each of the instrument's 48 Pads has access to three Send Effects Racks, each of
which contains four Effects Slots that can be set to one of nine different Effects
Units. The available effects include Delays, Reverbs, WahWah, Distortion and Filter,
Equalizer, Compressors, Flanger and Phaser.
•
Each of the instrument's 48 Pads has access to three individual LFOs.
•
The Modulation matrix has been extended so that it now has 12 slots. It also
contains several new modulation possibilities.
•
A key feature of the RMV is the addition of several “Librarians” that are used for the
storage and retrieval of various types of data that can be used with the instrument.
Four Librarians are available. These are for Pads, Kits, Grooves and Loops. Each
Librarian includes sophisticated search capabilities.
•
Samples can be searched using the Sample Browser.
•
The Kit Librarian features a “Live” control that enables different Kits to be loaded
using MIDI program change messages.
•
The RMV's Master section is used to mix the output of the Pads and Loops.
•
The maximum size of an RMV Kit has been increased to 48 Pads. The 48 Pads are
arranged into 3 groups of 16 so as to match current hardware controllers. Because
the 48 Pads are arranged into 3 groups of 16 it also means that there won't be a
large number of unused Pads when working with small Kits.
•
An “intelligent” MIDI Mapper ensures that MIDI files are played back correctly even
when the Kit used to play them does not exactly match the contents of the MIDI file.
The Mapper ensures that the closest matching sound in the current Kit is used to
