TASCAM GigaEditor 4 Manual 165
is setting enables or disables the Pitch Tracking of samples across the keyboard. It is typically disabled
for non-pitched samples such as drums, percussion, loop, and sound eects and enabled for melodic
instruments. Pitch tracking will transpose the sample based on its unity note setting.
M/S decode
GigaStudio can decode Mid/Side encoded recordings using this checkbox.
Mid/Side (“M/S”) micing is a creative method of recording direct from the source with a cardioid-type
microphone on one channel alongside a microphone with a “gure of 8” pattern to capture ambience.
Since it is not a true right/le representation of the sound eld it must rst be decoded to a useable stereo
signal. e direct or “Mid” channel recording is panned to the center of the stereo eld while the ambient
or “Side” channel recording is split to both le and right channels with the phase reversed on one of the
channels. e Side level can then be adjusted by attenuation to dial in the preferred amount of “spread” in
the stereo image.
Self mask
When checked, this causes high velocity notes to shut o lower velocity voices. is feature conserves
polyphony and should be tried on all samples with percussive attacks and relatively slow releases (pianos,
guitars, cymbals, etc).
Sustain defeat
is setting enables or disables the sustaining action of the sustain pedal. is allows the sustain pedal to
be used simply as a dimension switch without sustaining the samples.
Dimension bypass
You can bypass the current dimension by assigning one of these two controllers:
• Eect 4 depth (CC 94)
• Eect 5 depth (CC 95)
is allows you to turn a dimension on and o in real time using one of these MIDI controllers. is can be
useful to override certain characteristics built into an instrument without having to actually edit the
instrument.
Crossfade settings
ese settings cause the sample to fade in and out at the specied values as the Attenuation Controller (see
above) is swept across its range.
