VOICE SETTINGS

Polyphony

Here you can define a voice limit for the Sound, that is the maximum
number of voices (notes) the Sampler can play simultaneously. Once

this polyphony has been reached, triggering any additional note will

kill the “oldest” note still playing (i.e. the note that was triggered
first). The available values are

(default),

, and

You can also set this to

Legato

— in that case the polyphony is set to

1 and the Sampler performs a continuous pitch transition between

consecutive notes.

Glide

Legato

is selected for the

Polyphony

parameter, this allows to

adjust the duration of the transition between consecutive notes.

Pitchbend

Here you can adjust how the Sound reacts on incoming MIDI

Pitchbend messages from an external MIDI controller or your host

application. For more information on how to setup your Sounds to
receive MIDI, refer to section

engine. Besides the default

setting, the other options

comes in various flavors offering different filtering:

S1200

(no

filtering),

S1200 L

(for Low, i.e. low-pass filtering),

S1200 LM

(for

Low-Mid, i.e. low-mid-pass filtering),

S1200 HM

(for High-Mid, i.e.

mid-high-pass filtering), and

S1200 High

(for High, i.e. high-pass

filtering).
