4 Dimensions are an element that, well, take GigaStudio to
another dimension. They provide exceptional control over
expressiveness; it’s worth spending some quality time with
the manual, and analyzing well-programmed Instruments,
to learn fully how these work. For this Quick Start we’ll set up
a very simple dimension, where each note’s velocity range
is split into four regions. The
lowest velocity range will
trigger the softest sample, the
next higher velocity range will
trigger the medium sample,
the next higher the loud
sample, and the highest range,
the loudest sample.
For “Controller Source,” click
on the downward pointing
arrow in this fi eld and select
Velocity. Velocity For
Splits, type in 4.
For description, type in Timbre.
Also, because these are stereo samples, it’s vital to click on
“Reserve Space for Stereo” or the Wizard will not produce the
desired results.
5 Click on “ State Names” and
enter names for the four
dimension states (in this
case Soft, Medium, Loud,
Loudest). This gives humanfriendly
names to the Splits
in the Instrument Editor,
making navigation much
easier. When you’re done,
click on “OK.” OK.” OK The program
will revert to the main Step
3 screen; click on “Next” to
proceed.
6 Now assign each of the Sample Groups to a Dimension. To do
this, click on a Sample Group in the left window, then click on
the corresponding Dimension name in the right window. In
this example three of the Sample Groups have been assigned,
but the Loudest one has not been assigned to its Dimension
