preference as one does in popular media players. Simply check one’s
Favorite presets and access them by clicking the title bar at the top of

4.4 Keyboard View
The Keyboard view of Analog Factory 2.5 (accessed either by the “Keyboard” or “All” view in
the toolbar) gives the user access to both the virtual keyboard and all the controls with
which the user can modify the sounds of the presets. We will take a moment now to look at
these controls.
4.4.1 Virtual keyboard
The LEVEL knob controls the general volume of Analog Factory 2.5. The more the knob is
turned to the right the higher the output level is raised.
The virtual keyboard visually presents 32 keys and allows one to produce the sounds of
Analog Factory 2.5 without the need for an external master MIDI keyboard. With the aid of
the TRANSPOSE function found on the left of the virtual keyboard, above the pitch and
modulation wheels, the user may scroll up or down the keyboard for notes in higher or
lower ranges than is visually presented.

4.4.2 The wheels
The wheels found on the left side of the virtual keyboard give the user control over the
frequency of the sound (“PITCH”) and the modulation rate (“MOD”).
