pand is a simultaneous expanding and compressing tool. When set to values greater than
zero, it forces incoming notes to the outer boundaries of the curve, making them play ei-
ther loudly or softly. Compand values of less than zero, on the other hand, force outgoing
velocity toward the mid-range. Drive pushes all values in the curve to the outer extremes.
Use these two controls together to sculpt or even redene the dynamic structure of a piece.
