• With a graphical shape similar to that shown on
the right, the randomization can be quite extreme.
Effectively, the graph is showing you that there is an
equal probability of timing displace ments to all notes.
The timing displacements can be large or small.
• With a graph shape like this, there will be a
reasonable amount of randomization: most notes
will have a slight timing deviation, but there will be
the odd note which is displaced to a more extreme
degree.
• When the graph looks like this, there will be no
randomization of timing: the graph shows that
there is an equal proba bility of no timing deviations
occurring.
Humanize Velocity panel
This panel graph works in exactly
the same way as the Humanize
Timing panel, except that the x-axis represents
devivations in velocity from the original input
value. Using this panel, it is possible to emulate
the slight variations in force exerted by a real
drummer during a performanace.
This panel is unique among BFD’s humanization
functions in that it not only applies to the Groove
Librarian, but also when using the plugin as a
sound module - i.e. using the host’s sequencing functions or an external MIDI controller
to trigger its sounds as single hits.
