Element Description
SCALE Section
Velocity Adjusts the velocity response of the drum. Available values range
from -100.0% to 100.0% (default value). At zero (mid course), the
drum is played at full velocity, no matter how hard you hit the keys
(or pads). From that mid position, by turning the knob to the right
you increase the positive velocity response and make the drum more
sensitive to the velocity at which you hit the keys/pads. From the
mid position, turning the knob to the left as the inverse effect: the
harder you hit the key/pad, the softer the resulting drum sound will
be.
9.7.2 Cymbal – Ride
The Ride engine is an acoustic emulation that allows the cymbal to be hit in many different
ways through the use of the Edge and Bell parameters. The sonic palette ranges from soft Jazz-
like rides to more noisy cymbals.
The parameters described below are presented as they appear in the Control area (Arrange view).
The same parameters are available in the Plug-in panel within the Plug-in Strip (Mix view) — for
more information please refer to section ↑ 13.4, The Plug-in Strip .
