Chorusing the Layer
Chorusing the Layer Chorusing “thickens” the sound by doubling the sound in stereo and then 
detuning it. Every layer with chorus turned on uses twice the polyphony 
for that layer.

WARNING: Because it 
works by doubling instruments, 
Chorusing halves the number of 
notes you can play.
The first field in this screen turns Chorus On or Off and allows you to adjust 
the amount of detuning (1 to 100%). The Width parameter controls the 
stereo spread. 0% reduces the chorus to mono and 100% provides the most 
stereo separation.
Sound Start Offset, 
Delay & Key-up 
Layer
Sound Start sets where the instrument begins playing when you hit a key. 
Setting the Start Offset amount to “0” plays the sample from the beginning. 
Higher values move the Sample Start Point further into the sample toward 
the end. There is also a PatchCord source which can be used to change the 
Sound Start point at note-on time.
Controlling the Sound Start using Key Velocity (< Amt -) brings in the attack of the wave 
only when you play hard. This is especially effective with percussion instruments.
Delay defines the time between when you hit a key (note-on) and the onset 
of the current layer’s note and the start of the envelopes (if applicable). 
Delay values below zero are Tempo-based values, meaning the time is based 
on the Master Tempo setting. Note values are displayed by adjusting the 
Delay Time value below zero. The sound will be delayed by the selected 
note value based on the master clock.
