Velocity Cross-Switching Between Layers
This application will give you an example of how velocity can be used to call up layers:
Press the Sample•Source Select button, set REC SRC= INPUT DRY LEFT, and then pick a
sample instrument. Press Enter•Yes and say “one,” then press Cancel•No to stop sampling.
Make middle C the root key. This is layer one.
Press the Sample•Source Select button again, pick the same sample instrument. The display
reads UNNAMED LYR=1 WS=
NEW
. Underline LYR=1, and set it to LYR=N. Press
Enter•Yes. Press Enter•Yes again and say “two.” Again, make middle C the root key. This is
layer two.
Press the Sample•Source Select button, then pick the same sample instrument. Underline
LYR=2 in the display, and change it to LYR=N. Press Enter•Yes twice, and say “three.” This
is layer three. Again, select middle C as the root key. When you play middle C, you will hear
samples, “one, two, and three,” in layers one, two, and three.
Now that we have our WaveSamples, the Edit/Layer LAYER VELOCITY parameter can be used.
Press Edit. This places you on the Edit Context page. Using the Data Entry Slider or Arrow
buttons, adjust the parameters on the page so the screen reads, UNNAMED LYR=
1
WS=ALL.
Press the Layer button. This will take you to the Edit/Layer page. Scroll to the LYR VEL
screen and underline and adjust this parameter so it reads LYR VEL LO=0 HI=42.
Press the Edit button again, which takes you back to the Edit page. Underline LYR=1 in the
display and change it to LYR=2. The display reads UNNAMED LYR=
2
WS=ALL. Pressing
the Edit button takes you back to the Edit/Layer page (the Edit button acts as a toggle).
Set the Edit/Layer parameters to LYR VEL LO=42 HI=85. Press the Edit button again, to
return to the Edit Context page. Underline LYR=2 and set it to LYR=3. Press the Edit button
to toggle back to the Edit/Layer page. Set these Parameters to LYR VEL LO=86 HI=127.
All three Layers are now set to respond to velocity. A layer will only play when the note-on
velocity is within the range specified on this page. A soft attack will call up sample “one,” a
medium attack, sample “two,” and a hard attack, sample “three.” Remember, you can do this
with up to eight layers.
