PanEach sample slot can have its own pan position. This is set using the slot'sPAN control.MixEach sample slot can have its own mix level. This is set using the slot's MIXcontrol. The Mix setting determines the samples playback level.Sampler Amp and PanIn addition to the above-mentioned controls, there are also two globalcontrols for the Sampler module. These are the Sampler Amp (Amplitude)and the Sample Pan (Panorama).The Sampler Amp (Amplitude) control sets the overall output level for thecombined mix of all currently loaded samples.The Sampler Pan (Panorama) control sets the overall panning position forthe combined mix of all currently loaded samples.14 Manual
Oscillator EditorThe Octopus' Oscillator Editor module is located on the upper-right of theFront Panel. This module contains the controls for editing each of theinstrument's additive oscillators.OverviewEach of the Octopus' 8 Oscillators is made up of 32 harmonics. Theamplitude of each harmonic can be edited in the Harmonic AmplitudeEditor. The Oscillator Editor enables you to load and analyse waveformshowever it is important to remember that only the first 32 harmonics presentin the waveform will be used. As such, rich, noisy waveforms may not bereproduced with 100% accuracy. At first, it may appear that 32 harmonics isnot enough to produce rich waveforms, however one of the key features ofFM synthesis is its ability to produce complex waveforms from simplesource signals. For example, most hardware FM synths only contain sinewave oscillators.The Oscillator Editor module contains the following controls: OscillatorSelect, Oscillator Menu, Harmonic Amplitude Editor, Harmonic PhaseEditor, Frequency, Pitch, Amplitude, Phase and Free. There is also awaveform display that shows the shape of the current Oscillator'swaveform. These controls are described below.To select on Oscillator, click on one of the Oscillator Select buttons at theleft of the module. The selected Oscillator is then highlighted and theOscillator Editor module now displays the settings of the selected Oscillator.Manual 15
