Using Cyclone

Cyclone

Cyclone loads the loops and associated settings that make up the Sound

Bank you loaded.

To Clear the Contents of a Project

• Click the Trash icon in the Cyclone toolbar.

Cyclone deletes all loops from your project.

Mixing Down Cyclone

You mix down a Cyclone session the same ways you mix down any synth.

For step-by-step instructions, see Converting Your Soft Synth Tracks to

Audio.

Loop Editing

Clicking a loop in the Loop bin displays that loop in the Loop view. The Loop

view displays the selected loop as a series of slices that separate the

transients in the loop. When the Auto-preview button is depressed, you can

click each of the slices to hear it. If the loop is assigned to a Pad, the slices

also appear in the Pad Editor as a series of events, which you can also

click to hear. Clicking an event in the Pad Editor also highlights the

corresponding slice in the Loop view.

You can drag slices from the Loop view to any position in any track in the

Pad Editor in order to add data to a Pad, or replace an already-existing

event If you can drag a slice along a series of events in the Pad Editor, if the

Auto-preview button is depressed, each event sounds as you drag across it,

enabling you to hear events before you decide to replace them.

To Add or Replace Parts of a Loop

1. In the Loop bin, click the loop that you want to use as source material.

2. Make sure that the Auto-preview button is on.

3. Drag the slice that you want to use from the Loop view to the slice or

empty space in the Pad Editor that you want to place the slice.

4. If you dragged to an area that’s to the right of the Track Length marker,

drag the marker to the right until it’s to the right of the new slice.

To Change the Length of a Track

• Drag the Track Length marker to the right or left to lengthen or shorten

the track, respectively. You can include empty space in your track. If

you depress the Loop button for that Pad (track), the track loops

continuously between the beginning of the track and the Track Length

marker.
