Chapter 1: About the GigaStudio 4.0 Instrument Editor
e GigaStudio Instrument Editor is a separate application that works with GigaStudio. e Editor allows
you to create your own instruments or edit existing Giga instruments.
You can run the Editor simultaneously with GigaStudio, but it’s not necessary. e Editor itself can load
instruments into memory, allowing you to hear your edits by playing an external MIDI controller or by
right-clicking the on-screen keyboard.
What’s New?
Giga Editor 4.0 includes the following changes from version 3.0:
1. e Dynamic Expression Filter, which in Giga 3 was accessible only through the use of a specially
formatted initialization le, is now exposed in the Editor as part of the normal parameter scheme.
Some of the DEF parameters are global to an instrument, and are found on a new tab in the
Instrument Properties dialog. e DEF coecients are part of the subregion articulation and are
edited with the usual tools (the parameter value list and the “blue ball” graph).
2. e control panel for the Mono Mode iMIDI rule has a new tab with a graphical editor for the
Portamento Reshaping Filter, which like the DEF was previously accessible only by editing an
initialization le.
