Sonic Charge Synplant User Manual

(Owners of Sonic Charge µTonic may notice that µTonic uses the same file extension for its
MIDI configuration files. In fact, you can create configurations for both Synplant and µTonic
and store in the same ".scmc file".)

Input Channel

This is the MIDI channel that this instance of

Synplant

will respond to.

Output Channel

This is the MIDI channel that

Synplant

will use for sending midi notes. Whenever you

click and drag a branch

(or click on the

Key Ring

)

Synplant

will play that note and

transmit it over MIDI as well.

(Note: MIDI output is only possible with the VST version.

Audio Units do not support this.)

Depending on the facilities of your host application you can use this feature to record
notes played from the user-interface of

Synplant

or you may use it to chain several

Synplants

and trigger them simultaneously from a single window.

Selecting output channel Off will stop notes from playing entirely when you click to
edit branches. This particular setting is therefore useful in the Audio Unit version as
well as the VST version.

Pitch Wheel

Here you can choose the range of the pitch wheel in number of semitones.

Velocity Curve

This is a global velocity curve. It is different from

Velocity Sensitivity

control on the

main interface in that it transforms all received MIDI notes according to one of three
predefined curves. You typically use it to compensate for the velocity response of
your keyboard or your particular playing style.
