Introduction
Product Description
Then there’s Vintage Pro’s Rhythmic Pattern Generator/Arpeggiator, which
can play up to 16 synchronized arpeggiator patterns at once using a
different sound for each! Patterns can be edited using pattern flow
commands such as: delay for 2 bars, play for 4 bars, hold for 2 beats and
repeat. You can program or download 100 user patterns in addition to the
300 factory patterns.
Of course the real power of Vintage Pro becomes apparent when you begin
to synthesize your own sounds. The extremely flexible yet easy to use,
4-layer synthesizer voices make it easy to build sounds of any kind. Layers
can be switched or crossfaded using key position, velocity, real-time
controllers or any modulation source. Vintage Pro also contains 50
different types of 2nd to 6th order resonant & modeling filters which are
used to shape and modify the raw waveforms.
The 64 modulation sources include three multistage envelopes and two
LFOs per layer, as well as full MIDI control over virtually every parameter.
The digital patch bay, with 24 cords per layer, (and 12 more cords per
preset) lets you connect modulation sources to 64 destinations in any
imaginable way. The patch bay contains a set of arithmetic modifiers,
letting you create complex synthesis models.
Four front panel real-time controllers give you control over 12 user-
selectable parameters. The real-time knobs can adjust multiple synthesizer
functions at once, allowing complex levels of control. For example, one
knob can simultaneously turn up filter cutoff, while detuning one sample,
and adjusting the release time of the volume envelope. Virtually every
synth parameter in the Vintage Pro is controllable using the real-time
knobs or by any internal or external control source.
Six analog outputs let you process separate sounds and integral effect sends
externally. Returns allow the addition of external effects units without the
need for a separate mixer.
Once you have created your preset, you can add richness to your sound
using Vintage Pro’s 24-bit stereo effects. You can choose a different effects
setup for each preset from over 60 algorithms. Vintage Pro’s effects section
is actually two separate effects processors with control over each wet/dry
mix level. Effects Processor “A” contains primarily ambiance algorithms
like reverb and delays, while effects processor “B” contains primarily
spectral algorithms such as chorus, flange, phase, distortion, and delay.
Effects can be linked to each preset or used globally to further enhance your
sound.
The S/PDIF digital stereo output lets you connect to other digital
equipment, such as digital mixers or external effects devices, keeping your
signal entirely in the digital domain.
Other features include multiple solo, voice assignment and performance
modes for expressive control, 12 user-definable alternate tunings, an
extremely easy to use interface and, of course, an extensive MIDI imple-
mentation.
