SETUP

NoISE SEtUP | PIcKING VoLUME
Volume | Pick Noise:
Control the amount of pre-pick noise here. Pre-pick noise is noise that

happens before the actual note is played. The plectrum scratches the string

which produces some noise. This noise is barely audible but it also adds

another subtle factor for realism.

Note: All noises add to the polyphony

count so if you have a less powerful CPU you can turn them off to minimize

CPU consumption.

Volume | Slide Noise:
Slide noise happens when you move your hand along the fretboard to

reposition your hand. Adjust the amount of this slide noise here.

Note: All

noises will use more polyphony, so if you have a less powerful CPU, you can

turn them off to minimize CPU consumption.

Volume | Hit Next String Noise:
You can setup the volume of the noise that sometimes happens when

plucking a string and hitting the next string.

Volume | Release Noise:
Release noise happens when you lift your fingers from the fretboard to

reposition your hand after playing a note. Adjust the amount of this release

noise here.

Note: All noises will use more polyphony, so if you have a less

powerful CPU, you can turn them off to minimize CPU consumption.

Volume | open String Noise:
When lifting your left hand to reposition, sometimes you produce a light

open string noise (like a very quiet pull off). You can specify the amount of

this open string noise here.

Note: All noises will use more polyphony, so if

you have a less powerful CPU, you can turn them off to minimize CPU

consumption.

PIcKING | PRoBABILItY

Pick Noise, Slide Noise and Hit Next String Noise allow you to set up how

often a certain noise occurs. 100% means all the time, 50% would cause the

noise to sound only on 50% of notes. With

If Velocity > you can set up a

velocity threshold here. The

Next Hit String Noise will only occur when you

play a note with a higher velocity than your threshold.

PIcKING | RELEASE NoISE

The

Release Noise probability settings of Buzz, Slide, Pick and open String

allow you to set up how often a certain release noise occurs.

Note: all

release noise probabilities added together can’t go higher than 100%. So if

you set one to 100% all the others are automatically set to 0%.

cHoRDS | VoLUME

chords | Volume | Strum Noise:

Control the amount of strum noise here. Strum noise happens when you

strum strings. Each time a string is played, the next string stops the

plectrum for a very short time. The sound produced on the stop of the

plectrum is the strum noise.

Note: All noises will use more polyphony, so if

you have a less powerful CPU, you can turn them off to minimize CPU

consumption.

chords | Volume | Slide Noise:

Slide noise happens when you move your hand along the fretboard to
reposition your hand. Adjust the amount of this slide noise here.

Note: All

noises will use more polyphony, so if you have a less powerful CPU, you can
turn them off to minimize CPU consumption.

chords | Volume | Release Noise:

Release noise happens when you lift your fingers from the fretboard to
reposition your hand after playing a note. Adjust the amount of this release
noise here.

Note: All noises will use more polyphony, so if you have a less

powerful CPU, you can turn them off to minimize CPU consumption.

chords | Volume | open String Noise:

When lifting your left hand to reposition, sometimes you produce a light
open string noise (like a very quiet pull off). You can specify the amount of
this open string noise here.

Note: All noises will use more polyphony, so if

you have a less powerful CPU, you can turn them off to minimize CPU
consumption.
