Assignment section parameters
•
Master (Volume) slider: Controls the levels of all drum sounds in the drum kit—the overall mix
level of all drum sounds.
•
Volume slider: Drag the blue slider to set the volume for the sound. All drum sound levels are
indicated by blue sliders, providing an overview of relative levels within the kit.
•
Keyboard: Acts as a display when MIDI information is received. Click the keys to play the sound
on the corresponding row.
•
M(ute) buttons: Click to mute (silence) one, or multiple, sounds in the drum kit.
•
S(olo) buttons: Click to hear one, or multiple, drum sounds in isolation. All other drum sounds
(unsoloed) are muted.
•
Pan knobs: Rotate to position drum sounds in the stereo eld (panorama).
•
Output pop-up menus: Use to independently route each drum sound to individual outputs, or
output pairs. Ultrabeat features eight separate stereo and mono outputs when inserted as a
multi-output instrument.
•
Drum sounds that are routed to an output pair other than Main (1–2) are automatically
removed from the main output channel strips.
•
Choosing an output pair other than Main (1–2) routes the sound to an aux channel strip.
