Modulation

Modulation can affect in an entirely different way. Adding modulation to samples greatly expands the possibilities of their sound beyond the original audio by affecting five properties of a sample: Volume, Panning, Pitch, and the Cutoff and Resonance of an added filter. Modulation is created by chaining various devices together for each of these individual properties and are collected together as a Set.

Through this system a Set can be reused any number of times or alternatively each sample can be assigned a different Set and therefore be affected by modulation in completely different ways. 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.

-Adding Modulation to samples greatly expands the possibilities of their sound beyond the original audio. The modulation can affect three basic properties of a sample: Volume, Panning, Pitch, as well as a Filter whose Cutoff and Resonance can also be modulated. A Modulation Set is created by adding various devices in a chain. Each sample within an instrument can be independently affected by Modulation by assigning a Set to it. Modulation chains are processed polyphonically (each voice is processed independently. Sets can be reused to affect any number of samples, assigned in [[Sampler#Controls|Sample List]].
