TASCAM GigaEditor 4 Manual 53
Examples:
• Use a MIDI controller to change between ltered and unltered playback of the same sample.
• Change between dierent envelope settings for amplitude, lter, or pitch.
• Change between dierent velocity curves or velocity levels.
Load and play the Tutorial Instrument “Bass Note 4-Way Mod.gig”
is instrument is a good example of how dimensions can be used to play the same samples with dierent
edit variations. In this instrument, the Mod Wheel will switch four ways between the following options.
Normal Sustain
Filtered Sustain
Slow Attack Sustain
Short Release Sustain
The Layer dimension
So far we have covered basic switching dimensions that use MIDI controllers or Velocity to change the
samples that are played back. Another type of dimension is the Layer. is allows you to layer several
samples on top of one another to be played back at the same time.
By default, all of the splits in a layer dimension sound simultaneously when a note is played. But you can
also control the volume of the individual layers via MIDI, and even do a MIDI controlled crossfade between
layers. In this example, we will create a simple two-way layer and put a Mod Wheel crossfade on it.
1. Start with a new blank instrument and import the Sustain Sample
Bass note directories into the Sample Window.
2. Create a region at E2 again.
3. Click on the header bar at the top of an empty dimension to
bring up the Dimension Controller dialog.
