Modulation
Adding modulation to samples greatly expands the possibilities of their sound beyond the original audio, which is achieved by affecting five basic properties of a sample: Volume, Panning, Pitch, and the Cutoff and Resonance of an added filter. The actual modulation envelope for each invidual property is created by chaining various devices together and when all collected together are known as a Set.
Through this system each sample can be assigned a different Set, and therefore be affected by modulation in completely different ways, or a Set can be reused any number of times to affect multiple samples simultaneously. Any changes made to a Set will affect all linked samples.
Modulated samples are processed polyphonically (each instance of a sound is generated independently).
The interface is split into three sections. At the upper-left is the Set list Load & Save and the large section to right graphically shows the results of the device chain. The lower section contains the properties selector and device chain.
Modulation Devices

Input
Common Effect Layout and Controls
Each effect that you add to the chain has a standard set of buttons to perform common functions:
AHDSR
Envelope
Fader
Key Tracking
LFO
Operand
Velocity Tracking
