HARMONICS Section
KTr. Mode (Key
Tracking Mode)
Selects from two key tracking modes: Harmonic (default) and
Dissonant.
In Harmonic mode all oscillators track the Tune parameter (on the
Main page, see above) and your keyboard evenly. Therefore, the
drum stays in tune with itself as the Tune parameter is adjusted,
and can be played chromatically across a keyboard or the pads.
In Dissonant mode the oscillators track the Tune parameter you’re
your keyboard) unevenly. Therefore, the drum produces dissonant,
detuned harmonics when the Tune parameter is adjusted or when
you play different notes on a keyboard or the pads.
Freq A Adjusts the pitch of oscillator A within the feedback oscillator bank,
measured as a percentage. Available values range from 0.0 to
100.0 % (default: 50.0 %).
Freq B Adjusts the pitch of oscillator B within the feedback oscillator bank,
measured as a percentage. Available values range from 0.0 to
100.0 % (default: 50.0 %). Note that this parameter has no effect
when FM and AM are set to zero (see below).
Freq C Adjusts the pitch of oscillator C within the feedback oscillator bank,
measured as a percentage. Available values range from 0.0 to
100.0 % (default: 29.1 %). Note that this parameter has no effect
when FM and AM are set to zero (see below).
FM Adjusts the amount of frequency modulation within the feedback
oscillator bank, measured as a percentage. Frequency modulation
tends to add bell-like, ringing overtones. Available values range
from 0.0 to 100.0 % (default: 34.4 %).
AM Adjusts the amount of amplitude modulation within the feedback
oscillator bank, measured as a percentage. Amplitude modulation
tends to add brash, bright overtones. Available values range from
0.0 to 100.0 % (default: 18.6 %).
