• Low-Frequency Oscillator Controls: These knobs apply LFO modulation to the
selected instrument. By using the LFO to modulate various aspects of the
audio signal, you can apply effects such as vibrato or tremolo.
Ø Rate:
This knob controls the frequency. Turn clockwise for a faster
modulation rate. Ø Depth:
This knob controls the amplitude. With a lower setting, the
resulting modulation is subtle, while a higher depth will result
in a much more extreme effect.
The following combo
boxes settings adds motion or variability to sounds:
ØWaveForm: Switches between
‘Triangle’, ‘Sine’, ‘Saw’, ‘Square’ and ‘Exponential’ waveforms.
ØSource: Switches between ‘Modulation
Wheel’, ‘Aftertouch’ and ‘Velocity’. ØDestination: Switches between
‘Pitch’, ‘Expression’ and ‘Pan’ modulation.
•
ADSR envelope generator with Attack, Sustain, Decay and Release parameters:
Ø Attack
determines the time it takes for the note to get to the maximum level. Ø Decay
determines the time it takes for the note to go from the maximum level
to the sustain level (controlled by Sustain). Ø Sustain
determines level the sound is played at while the note is held (after
the other envelope states, Attack and Decay, have been completed). Ø Release
determines the time it takes for the note to fall from the sustain level
to zero (silence) level when it is released.
• Pitch Bend: The Pitch Bend knob directly changes the pitch of the selected
instrument.
Ø Pitch
Bend center position: is normal pitch. Ø Pitch
Bend down: Specifies the amount of pitch change that will occur when the
pitch bend/modulation lever is moved to the left. Ø Pitch
Bend up: Specifies the amount of pitch change that will occur when the
pitch bend/modulation lever is moved the right.
• Reverb built-in: provides a spaciousness and depth to simulate the
sound reflections from walls, floors and ceilings following a sound created
in an acoustically reflective environment. Small rooms can be modeled as
well as large spaces.
• Filter Type. Combo box to switch between the following options:
Ø Low
Pass (LPF): a filter that passes signals with a frequency lower than a
certain cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with frequencies higher
than the cutoff frequency. Ø High
Pass (HPF): a filter that passes signals with a frequency higher than a
certain cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with frequencies lower
than the cutoff frequency. Ø None:
No filter is applied. Ø Cutoff
Frequency Filter: Sets the cutoff frequency for the low pass and high
pass filters.
• Amplitude Range Parameters: It controls the loudness, the way in which we
perceive amplitude.The sensitivity level is set by the user:
• Panning potentiometer control: Set the panning of the instrument. Adjusts
the stereo pan position of the signal output, which determines how much of
signal is sent to the left and right channels.
• MIDI CC Automation: Implementation of MIDI Continuous Controller
parameters for use with external hardware control via DAW, such as: LFO
depth (CC#1), breath controller (CC#2), expression (CC#11), volume (CC#7),
pan (CC#10), balance (CC#8), filter cutoff (CC#74), ADSR (Attack: CC#73,
Decay: CC#75, Sustain: CC#76, Release: CC#72) and reverb depth (CC#91).
Before
you install VST Instruments & Effects, please make sure your
computer fulfills the following requirements:
Windows Operating
System: Native .dll / .vst3 file for Windows Windows 7, Windows 8,
Windows 8.1 and Windows 10
32-bit and 64-bit platforms.
500 MHz Processor (Pentium®, Celeron®
AMD® or equivalent) minimum.
RAM:
512 MB or higher recommended.
VST compatible host / Digital Audio Workstation
DAW/ MIDI Sequencer: These VST/VST3 software can be "plugged in" to any host application that supports VST/VST3
Technology like: Image-Line FL Studio, Steinberg Cubase Pro, Artist and
Elements, Cakewalk by BandLab, Ableton Live, Cockos REAPER, PreSonus Studio One,
Acoustica Mixcraft, MAGIX Acid Pro, MakeMusic
Finale, Avid Sibelius, Mackie Tracktion, Steinberg Nuendo, Magix
Samplitude, Magix Music Maker, Cantabile (Lite, Solo, Performer), n-Track

...
MIDI Controller Device: A MIDI Controller is
required to play this VST instrument. The most common type of device in this
class is the keyboard controller. After launching the Digital
Audio Workstation or MIDI host application be sure to select the appropriate
MIDI device before attempting to play your MIDI controller.
For users familiarized with Wind Controllers like the Akai EWI USB, Akai
EWI4000S and the Yamaha WX5 Wind MIDI Controller or Yamaha BC1, BC2, BC3
and BC3a Breath Controllers via DAW / AU-VST-VST3 host, it is highly recommended
to test first the demo version available
here in order to check out its compatibility and how it respond to breath control (CC#2) and MIDI expression
(CC#11) for crescendos and decrescendos.
An ASIO® soundcard is recommended for
low latency real-time play.
The AU VST2 and VST3 Plugins DEMO versions is only meant to give you a
taste of what is possible with this plugin in a limited range of an
octave ‘C5-C6’ or ‘C4-C5’ with random ‘white noise’, where Middle C equals C4.
The
full version is available to purchase, as downloadable software, the
price is US$ 38,90
and you can download the full version as soon as your payment is
received.
