Vectron Player
Overview
With the Vectron Player you can play any
of the presets available for the optional
Vectron synthesizer. This puts yet
another tone generation technique–
vector synthesis–at your disposal. After
loading a Vectron preset you can change
a (limited) number of parameters. The
Player’s preset manager then lets you
save these changes as a new preset.
Vector Synthesis
The synthesis technique employed in the
Vectron is based on a configuration of
four oscillators with special
vector
control, a low pass filter, and a complex
modulation matrix. This arrangement
can produce extremely lifelike spectral
progressions. Conceptually, each
oscillator occupies one of the four
corners of a square
vector field. The
volume of each oscillator is modulated
by marking a point within the vector field
(the vector position). This point can be
positioned statically, or modulated
dynamically by various modulation
sources. A special multi-segment vector
envelope creates complex movements
of the vector position within the vector
field, and even offers a loop function
whereby the envelope becomes the
functional equivalent of a complex LFO.
If you are interested in further information
regarding generation of sounds in the
Vectron, you’ll find a detailed manual for
the SFP version of the Vectron in the
download area of our Web site.
