- Randomizer Section
-
In the randomizer section, you can adjust three randomizable parameters, delay, velocity, and pitch.
The actual values of these three parameters are randomly selected for each note-on within the selected range.
-
The delay slider adjusts the delay time range of note-on messages.
-
The velocity slider adjusts the velocity randomizer range.
The value randomly selected within this range is added to the original velocity.
-
The pitch slider adjusts the pitch randomizer range in cents.
-
The velocity and pitch parameters are bipolar. When the slider value is set to 10, the actual value is randomly selected between -10 and 10.
To widen the range of these two parameters, drag up. To narrow, drag down.
-
The circle button on the top left toggles the randomizer section on and off.
- Global Section
-
In the global section, you can adjust transpose, detune, and volume.
These three parameters are static, not randomized.
-
The transpose slider adjusts the pitch in semitones.
-
The detune slider adjusts the pitch in cents.
-
The volume knob adjusts the output volume.
