CHAPTER 19. LIVE AUDIO EFFECT REFERENCE 240
The input signal passes rst through a lter, and then into the resonators. There are four
input lter types to select from: lowpass, bandpass, highpass and notch. The input lter
frequency can be adjusted with the Frequency parameter.
The rst resonator is fed with both the left and right input channels, while the second and
fourth resonators are dedicated to the left channel, and the third and fth to the right
channel.
The Note parameter denes the root pitch of all the resonators ranging from C1 to C5.
It can also be detuned in cents using the Fine parameter. The Decay parameter lets you
adjust the amount of time it takes for the resonators to be silent after getting an input signal.
The longer the decay time, the more tonal the result will be, similar to the behavior of an
undamped piano string. As with a real string, the decay time depends on the pitch, so low
notes will last longer than higher ones. The Const switch holds the decay time constant
regardless of the actual pitch.
Resonators provides two different resonation modes. Mode A provides a more realistic
sounding resonation, while Mode B offers an effect that is especially interesting when
Resonator I's Note parameter is set to lower pitches.
The brightness of the resulting sound can be adjusted using the Color control.
All of the resonators have an On/Off switch and a Gain control. A resonator that is turned
off does not need CPU. Turning off the rst resonator does not affect the other ones.
Resonators II through V follow the Note parameter dened in Resonator I, but they can each
be individually transposed +/- 24 semitones using the Pitch controls and detuned in cents
using the Detune controls.
The output section features the obligatory Dry/Wet control and a Width parameter that
affects only the wet signal and blends the left and right outputs of Resonators II-V into a
mono signal if set to zero.
