Tutorial 5 - QuickEdit

QuickEdit is a powerful utility that enables you to quickly perform quick parameter

changes. QuickEdit functions include:

• Articulation – synth parameters like attenuation, pan, tuning, envelopes, filters,

and LFOs

• Dimensions – navigate through specific dimensions, like velocity cross-switches, for

quick & precise edits

• Wave View – drag envelope, filter and LFO curves directly on the graphic waveform

• Keyboard – additional special purpose version of the virtual keyboard

Any edits made in the QuickEdit are non-destructive to the .Gig itself. Rather, the ed-

its are saved with the performance (.GSP). When you load a performance containing in-

struments you specifically made QuickEdit adjustments to, the settings will be instantly

recalled and applied on a performance by performance basis. To make permanent edits

to the .Gig instrument, see the related sections of the GigaStudio 3.0 Instrument Editor.

To perform edits to any instrument loaded in the GigaStudio MIDI Mixer port chan-

nel view or QuickSound loaded instrument list, launch the readily available QuickEdit

utility. The instrument must be loaded first, then there are two ways to open QuickEdit:

The first method is to simply click the green ‘Q’ button on the MIDI Mixer channel

slot.

The other method is to right-click

on any instrument in the QuickSound

Loaded Instrument list and select the

‘QuickEdit…’ option.

Either method will launch the Quick-

Sound utility interface.

For the purposes of this tutorial, we will be using the VSL 14 Violins Enemble basic all

instrument which has velocity, keyswitch, and stereo dimensions. We will demonstrate

the function of each of the editable parameters available in the QuickEdit utility.
