Pitch Change Parameters. The Pitch Change Programs The Pitch Change program located in Bank 8 is a stereo or two-channel mono pitch shifter with several useful effects, including predelay, feedback, and glide. These are independently adjustable for each channel. About the Pitch Change Parameters Page One MOD (Stereo/Mono Mode) MOD selects stereo or mono mode. Move the slider all the way up to select mono, and down to select stereo. In stereo the two channels are linked, pitch shifting by the same amount and splicing at the same time. SNC (Play Sync) Normally the channels are in sync, but if PCH, FIN, or GL are moved frequently they can get out of sync. They can be resynchronized by pressing SNC. A small click may be heard when the button is pressed. PCH (Pitch Interval Stereo/Left) PCH adjusts the pitch interval of both channels in stereo mode, and the left channel in mono mode. The exact tuning can be altered by the fine pitch control, and the exact pitch shift in intervals and cents is displayed. The fine control must be set to the exact middle of its range if perfect pitch intervals are to be obtained. PCH (Pitch Interval R) This control performs the same functions as the other PCH control, except that it is only active in Mono mode, in which it adjusts the right channel. FIN (Fine Pitch R) This control performs the same functions as the other FIN control, except that it is only active in Mono mode, in which it adjusts the right channel. Page Two PDL (Predelay L) PDL adjusts the length of a delay line in series with the left input. The range is zero to over 800 ms, with a fine scale available when the button is pushed. Pre-delay also affects the delay of any feedback which is applied. In stereo mode the two predelays must be set to the same value, or the signals will not be in phase. PDR (Predelay R) PDR is the same as the PDL, except that it acts upon the right channel. FBL and FBR (Feedback Left and Right) FBL and FBR control the amount of feedback from the output of the pitch shift to the input of the predelay line. The control is at zero feedback when centered, and is adjustable from 0 to +99%. Some very useful effects can be obtained by combining pitch shift, delay, and feedback. 7-2

Bank 8: the Pitch Change and Doppler Programs Page Three MIDI (MIDI Pitch Event Left) MIDI Pitch Event provides a fast link between a MIDI Note Event and interval pitch shifting. By establishing a patch with NOTE EVENT as source and PITCH EVENT as destination, the amount of pitch shift can track incoming notes in semitone intervals. Pressing the KEY will tell you the curent pitch shift. REF (Reference MIDI Note Left) REF sets the MIDI Note Value for no pitch change, NULL + 0C, when under MIDI control. MIR (Pitch Mirror Left) MIR selects the direction of MIDI pitch control. When MIR is ON, pitch is shifted down for increasing note values. GLL (Glide Stereo/Left) GLL affects both channels in stereo mode, and the left channel in mono mode. It changes the pitch continuously over a range of + one octave. This allows a glissando to be performed, either manually with the LARC, or via MIDI. The full resolution of the pitch shift is not available on this control, although vernier (fine tuning) is available by pressing the button under the slider twice. SPL (Splice Length) SPL sets the amount of time the splice takes to complete. It is only active at moderate values of pitch shift. Very short splices produce less of a metallic or combing sound in the pitch shift, but can sometimes be audible as a click or a glitch. Longer splices are sometimes less obvious, but can affect the timbre of the sound. High values of pitch shift require short splices, so SPL is deactivated if the pitch shift selected is quite high. The default value of 16 gives good results in most applications. Program Descriptions 1 Pitch Change This program has pitch values set to 0 and is set for stereo shift. 2 Pitch Chorus Pitch Chorus is a dual mono program, which means that both the left and right channels can be set for different amounts of pitch shift. The left channel is preset for -3 cents. The right channel is preset for +6 cents. This produces a medium rolling chorus effect with a lush characteristic. 3 1% Up 1% Down This is another dual mono program. The pitches are set 1% up and 1% down, creating a heavily processed sound. 39.27 ms and 32.69 ms of delay are used on the pitches, reinforcing the overall effect. This program is ideal for guitar and vocals. 4 Barber Pole This is a true stereo program. Both sides are set for 3 cents of downward pitch shift. No additional delay is used, but -41% feedback is assigned to the left and +41% is assigned to the right. This helps give the smooth, slow downward resonance characteristic of this program. Use the left/stereo Pitch slider for additional amounts of stereo pitch shifting. 5 Half Steps This stereo program uses 600 ms of delay and 44% feedback on both left and right channels, routed back to a Minor 2nd downward pitch shift. This program is strictly for effects use — try changing the delay settings for even more outrageous effects. 6 Stair Case This is a dual mono variation of Half Steps with shorter delays and larger intervals. Page Four The following controls work on the right channel when the pitch shifter is in mono mode. MIDI (MIDI Pitch Event Right) REF (Reference MIDI Note Right) MIR (Pitch Mirror Right) GLR (Glide Right) 7-3

The Pitch Change Programs<br />

The Pitch Change program located in Bank 8 is a<br />

stereo or two-channel mono pitch shifter with several<br />

useful effects, including predelay, feedback, and glide.<br />

These are independently adjustable for each channel.<br />

About the Pitch Change Parameters<br />

Page One<br />

MOD (Stereo/Mono Mode)<br />

MOD selects stereo or mono mode. Move the slider all<br />

the way up to select mono, and down to select stereo.<br />

In stereo the two channels are linked, pitch shifting by<br />

the same amount and splicing at the same time.<br />

SNC (Play Sync)<br />

Normally the channels are in sync, but if PCH, FIN, or<br />

GL are moved frequently they can get out of sync. They<br />

can be resynchronized by pressing SNC. A small click<br />

may be heard when the button is pressed.<br />

PCH (Pitch Interval Stereo/Left)<br />

PCH adjusts the pitch interval of both channels in<br />

stereo mode, and the left channel in mono mode. The<br />

exact tuning can be altered by the fine pitch control, and<br />

the exact pitch shift in intervals and cents is displayed.<br />

The fine control must be set to the exact middle of its<br />

range if perfect pitch intervals are to be obtained.<br />

PCH (Pitch Interval R)<br />

This control performs the same functions as the other<br />

PCH control, except that it is only active in Mono mode,<br />

in which it adjusts the right channel.<br />

FIN (Fine Pitch R)<br />

This control performs the same functions as the other<br />

FIN control, except that it is only active in Mono mode,<br />

in which it adjusts the right channel.<br />

Page Two<br />

PDL (Predelay L)<br />

PDL adjusts the length of a delay line in series with the<br />

left input. The range is zero to over 800 ms, with a fine<br />

scale available when the button is pushed. Pre-delay<br />

also affects the delay of any feedback which is applied.<br />

In stereo mode the two predelays must be set to the<br />

same value, or the signals will not be in phase.<br />

PDR (Predelay R)<br />

PDR is the same as the PDL, except that it acts upon<br />

the right channel.<br />

FBL and FBR (Feedback Left and Right)<br />

FBL and FBR control the amount of feedback from the<br />

output of the pitch shift to the input of the predelay line.<br />

The control is at zero feedback when centered, and is<br />

adjustable from 0 to +99%. Some very useful effects<br />

can be obtained by combining pitch shift, delay, and<br />

feedback.<br />
