A.3 STATIC MACHINE
Static machines are perfect for handling extremely large samples. Samples assigned to Static machines are
streamed from the Compact Flash card, thus their size can be in the order of gigabytes. They can of course
still be time stretched and pitch scaled as needed.
STATIC MAIN
PTCH adjusts the pitch of the sample. The max set-
ting pitches the sample up an octave, a min setting
pitches the sample down an octave. Integer chang-
es are equivalent to semitones.
STRT controls the start point of the sample in a
linear fashion. If the sample contains slices, and the
SLIC parameter in the STATIC SETUP menu is set
to ON, this parameter selects between the slices.
STRT values exceeding the number of actual sam-
ple slices will select the last sample slice.
LEN controls the length of the sample or slice. The
behavior is controlled by the LEN parameter found
in the STATIC SETUP menu.
RATE adjusts the playback speed. It shifts behavior
depending on the RATE setting found in the STATIC
SETUP page. When set to 0 the sample won’t be
played back at all. Negative values make the sample
play backwards.
RTRG sets the number of retrigs that should occur
when a note is trigged.
RTIM sets the time between each retrig. The time
is relative to the tempo and is expressed in values
relating to the amount of steps of the sequencer.
STATIC SETUP
LOOP sets the master loop mode setting of the
track. When set to AUTO the individual loop settings
made in the audio editor will apply. Each sample of
the track can then have its own loop setting.
SLIC selects whether slices will be accessible or
not to the STRT parameter found in the STATIC
MAIN page.
LEN oers dierent settings depending on if SLIC is
active or not. If SLIC is set to ON LEN can be set to
either SLIC or TIME. SLIC will make the LEN param-
eter of the STATIC MAIN page control how many
slices, starting from the STRT slice, that will play.
TIME means that LEN controls the length of a par-
ticular slice. If SLIC is set to OFF LEN can be set to
either OFF or TIME. OFF renders the STATIC MAIN
LEN parameter inactive. TIME means that LEN will
linearly control the length of the sample that will be
played, starting from the set STRT value.
RATE selects if the RATE parameter found in the
main menu will aect the timestretch or pitch of the
sample.
TSTR sets the master timestretch setting of the
track. When set to AUTO the individual timestretch
settings made in the audio editor will apply. Each
sample of the track can then have its own time-
stretch setting.
TSNS adjusts the transient detection when the
timestretch algorithm is set to BEAT. The higher the
setting, the more transient sensitive the algorithm
will be.
