The Instrument editor 7

9 The Instrument editor

The Instrument editor can be called forth by clicking the "INSTR."-icon. This window is used to define

instruments to be used in the song. The top left holds parameters that affect the entire intrument.

- Vibrato min-max: This first number enables vibrato. Strongest vibrato is accomplished with the

value 1F, slightest vibrato with F1. (Both values give the maximal difference between the original

sound. With F1, this boils down to -1 to 1.)

- Vibrato delay/speed: This value incorporates the delay (left value) and the speed of the vibrato.

(For 8-bit sound, 1 is the speediest, F the slowest. For 16-bit sound, this is reversed for technical

reasons.)

- Glide: This entry can be used to hav the note glide up or down smoothly and rapidly (A.k.a.

"Glissando"). Values of FF, FE, FD etc will make it glide upwards in pitch, values of 01,02,03 etc will

glide it down.

- Detune: This value enables a slight pitch change on the original tone, which might be used to give a

"floating" effect.

- 16Bit on/off: A value of 01 will enable 16 bit mode. This links voice 0+1, and/or 2+3 into one voice.

To use this function, both voices should henceforth play the same sounds. (A good example of this

can be found in the demosong BIT.MSC.)

- Transpose off: For some sounds, specially drum sounds, transposing is not desirable. Entering a

value other than 0 will stop the main sequencer from transposing this instrument. (See the main

sequencer for details on transposing options there.)

- Sound Control: This gives some options to manipulate the sounds. (For people that know the

Pokey chip more intimately, this is NOT related to the Sound Control Register $D20F.) This value can

only be used with voices using the distortion value "A" (clear tones).

Values for the Sound Control entry are:

- 01: Detune (with a difference). Voice 0+2, or 1+3 are connected, playing the same note, with a slight

detune between them, giving a floating effect.

- 03: Voices 0+2, or 1+3 are connected through a special filter, giving an interesting effect. (play with

it)

- 02: Combines both of the above.
