Partikl Editor: Synth Attacher Dialog

Attach Effects Dialog screenshot, small

Overview

This dialog displays the status of Modular Synth definitions (if any) for every MIDI line.

The Export and Import buttons are very useful for copying content to/from files, or for exchanging with friends and colleagues!

The main controls in this unit are:

Ok - press this button to commit your changes and close the dialog.

Cancel - press this button to undo your changes and close the dialog.

Export - press this button to export the entire set of synth module designs to the clipboard.

Import - press this button to import the entire set of synth module designs from the clipboard.

MIDI Channels & Polyphony: To review per-line Modular Synth networks, select the MIDI line in question (from 1 to 16) in the MIDI Line list; the column to the right of this displays the currently specific polyphony for this MIDI line (and is set to "0 - unused" if this Modular Synth is not in use; i.e. if the underlying wavetable or custom sample sound are in use). Set the polyphony to 1 if you want the MIDI line to work monophonically with the tone generators you are about to define, or set an even higher number if you really want.

NOTE: the text in the MIDI Channel list shows note activity, and this is how you can see which channel MIDI events are being generated on. The mix (and revelant part) must be playing to see this information.

IMPORTANT NOTE you are strongly recommended to leave this value at "0 - unused" if you are not using modular synthesis for a given MIDI line, and for performance reasons we always recommend that you set this value to as small a number as possible! Press the "Edit" button on the right to case the Effects Network Editor dialog to display; which will let you edit the Modular Synth network for the currently selected MIDI line.
