444 Live Instrument Reference
The modulation oscillator is controlled via Initial, Peak, Sustain, End, Loop, Attack and
Time<Velocities parameters. For detailed information on how these work, see the Sample Play-
back section (page 437). Additionally, the right side of the modulation oscillator section fea-
tures the following controls:
Type — Choose the modulation oscillator’s waveform here.
Volume — This determines the intensity of the modulation oscillator’s sample modulation.
Vol<Vel — The modulation oscillator’s Volume parameter can be modified by the velocity of
incoming MIDI notes. This determines the depth of the modulation.
Fixed — When enabled, the modulation oscillator’s frequency will remain fixed at the rate de-
termined by the Freq and Multi parameters, and will not change in response to incoming MIDI
notes.
Freq — With Fixed set to On, this rate is multiplied by the Multi parameter to determine the mod-
ulation oscillator’s fixed frequency.
Multi — With Fixed set to On, the Freq parameter is multiplied by this amount to determine the
modulation oscillator’s fixed frequency.
Coarse — Coarse tuning of the modulation oscillator’s frequency (0.125-48). This is only avail-
able when Fixed is set to Off.
Fine — Fine tuning of the modulation oscillator’s frequency (0-1000). This is only available when
Fixed is set to Off.
The Pitch Envelope
The pitch envelope modulates the pitch of the sample over time, as well as of the Modulation
Oscillator, if it is enabled. This is a multi-stage envelope with ADSR, Initial, Peak, and End levels,
as described in the Sample Playback section (page 437). The values of the envelope param-
eters can be adjusted via the sliders, or by dragging the breakpoints in the envelope’s display.
On the lower-left of the Pitch Envelope section is the Amount slider. This defines the limits of the
pitch envelope’s influence, in semitones. The actual range depends upon the dynamics of the
envelope itself.
