Description

ATTENTION: SSO gives its output over a SubChannel in the Mixer. Create a SubChannel first, name it and gave that name in Cycloop SubChannel box. Otherwise, no sound will be heard. DESCRIPTION: Cycloop can be positioned in between the sampler and the granulator, as it has some aspects of both of them. The instrument takes in the sample and loops it. By retriggering the overlaps and other features like pitch and reading forward/backwards, interesting and evolving textures can be created. The number of overlaps gives the sound an echoic quality that reminds of the granulators. Attention: by activating the filter, also the filter envelope drawings become available. CONTROLLERS: Sample properties: File Selector - select the sample to use start pos. - skip in sample loop begin/end - set looppoints begin and end pitch - pitch if sample Grain properties: size - grain size in seconds rate - readout pointer rate, in grains. The value of 1 will advance the reading pointer 1 grain ahead in the source table. Larger values will time-compress and smaller values will time-expand the source signal. Negative values will cause the pointer to run backwards and zero will freeze it. overlap - maximum number of overlaps amp - amount of amplitude scaling Envelopes: amplitude/filter/pitch envelopes - for each, it changes values over the note event amplitude/filter exponential - convert envelope to exponential scale scale - scale the number of envelopes over the note event jitter - amount of jitter min/max - limits minimum and maximum frequencies for jitter- Filters: On/Off - use filters or not, also activate if you want to use the filter envelope. In that case, frequency cutoff will be overriden bu envelope frequency - frequency cutoff of filter XY controller - move between the 4 filter types lowpass/highpass/bandpass/bandreject - 4 filter types Quality - amount of filter feedback Global: Trigger On/Off - set ADSR trigger to on or off ADSR speed - frequency of retriggering of ADSR Attack/Decay/Sustain/Release - ADSR settings SubChannel - name of SubChannel to use L/R - output gain of SSO --- version 2.0, June 2020 - SSO of Cycloop updated to instr version version 1.1, Octobre 2019 - added amp. envelope and pitch envelope - added 3 ADSRs version 1.0, Octobre 2019 - takes in mono or stereo samples - accepts refresh of overlaps while playing
You can either download the .blueObject file above and import it in Blue, or open Tools → BlueShare in Blue (under SoundObjects / General) for direct import of Cycloop into your project.
