MainStage Ultrabeat voice volume control
The Voice volume knob adjusts the output volume of individual drum sounds. To be more
exact, when you adjust the Voice volume knob, you set the maximum level for the selected
drum sound with Envelope 4, following the attack phase of Envelope 4.
Note: Envelope4 (Env4) is hard-wired to level control for the selected sound. Each sound
in the kit also has a further three envelopes and other modulation sources available for
control of other synthesis parameters.
The intensity of Envelope4 impact on Voice volume can also be modulated with a via
source.
Note: Voice volume precedes the level sliders in the mixer. This approach allows the
starting volume of individual drum sounds to be set independently of their relative levels
in the drum kit mix, which you change in the Assignment section mixer. See MainStage
Ultrabeat Assignment section.
Use MainStage Ultrabeat trigger mode
The way Ultrabeat reacts to a succession of incoming notes is set independently for each
sound. Parameters that control this aspect of Ultrabeat behavior are found in the trigger
mode section.
