FL Manual 24 PioZone Flashcards

Question

FL STUDIO - PioZone - Master Controls Master Display - Voice Controls GAIN

Answer 1

-Overall, final output level from PoiZone.

Answer 2

- The MIDI section provides the ability to route a MIDI controller to a range of targets in PoiZone. - -NOTE: In order to link your controller to specific MIDI CC values you will need to do this via your hosts plugin wrapper.

Answer 3

-Mod Wheel Destination, selects the target control for the mod wheel MIDI CC parameter -

Answer 4

Cutoff of the filter frequency (pitch) of oscillator A.

Answer 5

- LFO amplitude. - -Note that this is not LFO amount, it is the amplitude of the LFO. - --For example, if your Mod Wheel is linked to LFO amplitude, and set your Mod Wheel to minimum, LFO will have zero amplitude and won't do anything. - ---If you turn Mod Wheel to maximum the LFO will now have max amplitude.

Answer 6

-Frequency of OSC A.

Answer 7

-Pulse-width of OSC A.

Answer 8

-Pulse-Width of OSCs A and B.

Answer 9

-The amount of modulation that the MOD Wheel will apply. PB RANGE: Pitch Bend Range

Answer 10

- LFO is a 'Low Frequency Oscillator' that is an Oscillator that creates an output changes at a rate less than 30 Hz. - -This generator is used to control parameters inside PoiZone to add motion or variability to sounds in order to make them more interesting or a 'human' feeling.

Answer 19

-Determines the frequency of the LFO, faster is up.

Answer 20

-Select the LFO waveform shape (SAW, PULSE, TRIANGLE, SINE, RANDOM).

Answer 21

-Retrigger, when selected restarts the LFO cycle at the start of each note

Answer 22

- Tempo Sync, synchronizes the LFO speed to the host tempo. - -Left-click to show a drop-down menu of options from 1/16th to 32/16th. - --When the display shows 'no sync' there is no tempo sync and rate of LFO is defined by the 'RATE' knob.

Answer 23

- The Envelope Generator is a user assignable Envelope that is used to control parameters inside PoiZone to add motion or variability to sounds. - -The envelope is triggered on a per-note basis at the start of each note.

Answer 24

-Envelope destination, select from - CUTOFF: Cutoff frequency of the filter. FREQ A: Frequency of OSC A. FREQ AB: Frequency of OSC A and B. PW A: Pulse Width for OSC A. PW AB: Pulse Width for OSC A and B.

Answer 31

-Attack (ramp up speed), Decay (ramp down speed), Sustain (sustain level), Release (release rate) of the envelope.

Answer 32

- Master ADSR (Amplifier) Envelope adds an envelope to the final output sound of PoiZone. - -The envelope is triggered on a per-note basis at the start of each note.

Answer 33

-Attack (ramp up speed), Decay (ramp down speed), Sustain (sustain level), Release (release rate) of the envelope.

Answer 34

- Oscillators are the basic sound sources of a synthesizer, PoiZone has 2 Oscillators (A and B) and one 'Noise' source. - -Oscillators A and B generate SAW or PULSE shapes that can be futher modified. - --All Oscillator modulations are applied to OSC A, so that OSC A is a carrier and OSC B is a modulator for RM and SYNC operations (as described below). - ---OSC B always generates an unmodulated sound - for example, this is why OSC B has controls for pitch while OSC A does not. - ----These features together with 'Unison' in the Master Controls section and the Effects Section allow PoiZone to quickly and easily create thick, lush textures or cutting leads.

Answer 35

-The knobs in the 'BALANCE' section are used to mix between Oscillator A, B and the Noise source.

Answer 36

-Controls the balance between Oscillator A and Oscillator B, turn fully left to hear OSC A and fully right to hear OSC B, the 12 O?clock position is a 50% mix of OSC A and OSC B.

Answer 37

-The output of the OSC knob is then sent to the NOISE mixer, fully left is 100% Oscillators and 0% NOISE, fully right is 100% NOISE and 12 O?clock is a 50% mix of the Oscillators and the Noise source.

Answer 38

-(Pulse Width): Controls the 'width' of the Oscillator waveform when the PULSE button is enabled and Oscillator is in PULSE mode. When fully left and the original waveform will be a narrow 'spike' shape, when fully right the waveform will be equal to the original PULSE waveform (100% width).

Answer 39

-Pulse switches between Saw and Pulse shapes of the Oscillator.

Answer 40

-(Ring Modulation): Ring modulation multiplies the output of OSC A and OSC B. The result is passed to OSC A (e.g. A = A \* B) while OSC B remains unchanged (has its original sound). Ring can be used to produce extra harmonics that are characteristic of struck metal.

Answer 41

-When selected synchronizes the phase of OSC A to B. In other words, every time OSC B completes its cycle OSC A is forced to reset and start its cycle from the beginning.

Answer 42

-(Pulse Width): Controls the 'width' of the Oscillator waveform when the PULSE button is enabled and Oscillator is in PULSE mode. When fully left and the original waveform will be a narrow 'spike' shape, when fully right the waveform will be equal to the original PULSE waveform (100% width).

Answer 43

- (Pulse Width): Controls the 'width' of the Oscillator waveform when the PULSE button is enabled and Oscillator is in PULSE mode. - -When fully left and the original waveform will be a narrow 'spike' shape, when fully right the waveform will be equal to the original PULSE waveform (100% width).

Answer 44

- (Ring Modulation): Ring modulation multiplies the output of OSC A and OSC B. - -The result is passed to OSC A (e.g. A = A \* B) while OSC B remains unchanged (has its original sound). - --Ring can be used to produce extra harmonics that are characteristic of struck metal.

Answer 45

- When selected synchronizes the phase of OSC A to B. - -In other words, every time OSC B completes its cycle OSC A is forced to reset and start its cycle from the beginning.

Answer 46

- (Pulse Width): Controls the 'width' of the Oscillator waveform when the PULSE button is enabled and Oscillator is in PULSE mode. - -When fully left and the original waveform will be a narrow 'spike' shape, when fully right the waveform will be equal to the original PULSE waveform (100% width).

Answer 47

-Pulse switches between Saw and Pulse shapes of the Oscillator.

Answer 48

-Changes the pitch of OSC B by +/- 24 Semitones.

Answer 49

-Changes the pitch of OSC B by 0 to + 50 Cents.

Answer 50

- The PoiZone filter can be used to shape the output from the Oscillators transforming the sound into something completely new. - -The PoiZone Filter operates in LowPass, HighPass and Band Pass modes as described below.

Answer 51

-Determines the cutoff frequency of the filter.

Answer 52

-Determines the Resonance (Or Bandwidth) of the filter.

Answer 53

- This knob controls how closely the filter cutoff frequency will be tied to the MIDI key number pressed by the user. - -Lower keys will result in lower cutoffs, while higher keys will have the opposite affect.

Answer 54

-Determines how much velocity will effect the filter cutoff frequency.

Answer 55

-Toggles the filter between - LP - Low-Pass, frequencies below the cutoff are allowed to pass, those above are filtered out. BP - Band-Pass, a band of frequencies are allowed to pass, those above or below are filtered out. Cutoff controls the center position of this band. HP - High-Pass, frequencies above the cutoff are allowed to pass, those below are filtered out.

Answer 56

-The PoiZone Arpeggiator can sync the playback of various patterns to the host tempo allowing you to create complex melodies while holding down notes or chords, instant gratification is yours!

Answer 57

- Select from one of 5 modes - - -OFF: The arpeggiator is turned off. - --UP: Notes are played back from the lowest to the highest held and then the arpeggiator loops back to the start (e.g. 1,2,3,4 - 1,2,3,4, etc). - ---DOWN: Notes are played back from the highest to the lowest held and then the arpeggiator loops back to the start (4,3,2,1 - 4,3,2,1, etc). - -----UP/DOWN: The note sequence runs up and down those held (e.g. 1,2,3,4,3,2,1 - 1,2,3,4,3,2,1, etc). - ------RANDOM: Notes are played back in random order from among those held.

Answer 58

-The arpeggiator is turned off.

Answer 59

-Notes are played back from the lowest to the highest held and then the arpeggiator loops back to the start (e.g. 1,2,3,4 - 1,2,3,4, etc).

Answer 60

-Notes are played back from the highest to the lowest held and then the arpeggiator loops back to the start (4,3,2,1 - 4,3,2,1, etc).

Answer 61

-The note sequence runs up and down those held (e.g. 1,2,3,4,3,2,1 - 1,2,3,4,3,2,1, etc).

Answer 62

-Notes are played back in random order from among those held.

Answer 63

-Select the number of octaves the pattern will be played over. Select from 1 to 4 octaves.

Answer 64

- Tempo Sync, this determines how quickly and in what time signature the Arpeggiator will play relative to the host tempo. - -1/32 (32nd notes) is the fastest setting while 4/4 (whole notes) is the slowest.

Answer 65

- The effects are important to add 'polish' to your sounds. - -PoiZone offers a DELAY and CHORUS effect bank, To activate the effect, click on the 'ON' button (it will light-up red). - --Values for controls may be seen in the top left display of PoiZone.

Answer 66

-Delay is an echo-based effect. Very short values of the delay time controls can produce a 'reverb' like sound.

Answer 67

-Turn the effect ON/OFF.

Answer 68

-Delay time for the left channel. Changes in 1/16th note tempo-synced units.

Answer 69

-Delay time for the right channel. Changes in 1/16th note tempo-synced units.

Answer 70

-Feedback, the level of the delay feedback. Greater levels produce more echoes.

Answer 71

-Delay Time Modulation Depth. The delay has an internal LFO that can control the delay time.

Answer 72

- Low Cut, determines a high-pass filter amount applied to the delay feedback loop. - -That is, the longer the tail of echoes, the less low frequencies they will contain.

Answer 73

- High Cut, determines a low-pass filter amount applied to the delay feedback loop. - -That is, the longer the tail of echoes, the less high frequencies they will contain.

Answer 74

-The amount of wet (effect) added to the dry sound (i.e. Full-Left is 100% Dry + 0% Wet, Full-Right is 100% Dry + 100% Wet).

Answer 75

- The Chorus effect results from the interaction of several copies of the original sound that are detuned by a very small and constantly variable amount. - -It is called 'Chorus' because it can make a single voice sound like that of a chorus of singers (all slightly out of tune relative to each other) to create a thick and lush texture. - --The Chorus in PoiZone does not have delay time control, rather delay time is modulated with the main LFO, so it varies from zero to "depth" in range. With rate at which the pitch variations occur is controlled by "rate" knob.

Answer 76

-Turn the effect ON/OFF.

Answer 77

-Depth of the chorus effect.

Answer 78

-The speed at which the chorus voices change pitch (in Hz).

Answer 79

-The amount of wet (effect) added to the dry sound (i.e. Full-Left is 100% Dry + 0% Wet, Full-Right is 100% Dry + 100% Wet).

Answer 80

- The PoiZone Trance Gate chops the final output sound from the effects section according to the selected pattern. - -The gate has a 16 step pattern that is synced to host tempo.

Answer 81

- Tempo Sync, this determines how quickly and in what time signature the Trance Gate will gate (chop) relative to the host tempo. - -1/32 (32nd notes) is the fastest setting while 4/4 (whole notes) is the slowest.

Answer 82

-The balance between the wet (gated) and dry sound. Right is 100% gating, left is 0%.

Answer 83

-The balance between the wet (gated) and dry sound. Right is 100% gating, left is 0%.

Answer 84

-This controls the aggressiveness of the gate attack, similar to the attack of an envelope. Left is a faster gate while right is slower gate.

Answer 85

-Each step in the row of 16 squares represents 1 unit of the TMP SYNC selection. Selected steps (black) is gate OFF, deselected steps (orange) is gate ON. Left-click with your mouse to select/deselect steps.
