- You must define a setup. You can find a general midi setup in the Environment/
- Extensions folder. This file is pretty self-explaining and you can use it
- as an example to write a setup for your synthesizers. When you have finished
- the file save it into the same folder and it is executed automatically when
- Symbolic Composer boots up, and you can use your controllers.
-
- If you have a synth with effects then you can also control the effect sends
- and their values. Vector-rounding sinewave makes wonders when applied to
- attack-time, chorus-level, reverb-level variation-level, filter and volume.
- A boring sound becomes a lively instrument. When all instruments have a
- similar 'performance space' and the tempo is variated by fourier waves and
- a little humanisation is added to velocities and legatos it starts sounding
- like it was performed.
