This is a huge help when creating realistic mockups because you are told by the library “right now those violas are playing mf”. So if you have p / mf / f in the display, that not only tells you that there are three actual layers per note, but also which one is currently active. Note that this display represents the actual recorded samples. If no text is visible, you are in the middle of two layers. As you morph through the layers, this value will change to reflect the active layer. In the middle of the Main Knob, the current velocity layer is displayed.
This will open the Controller Table where you can assign a new CC by moving your corresponding fader/encoder or whatever input source you are using. You can re-assign the CC used for the X-Fade setting by Alt/Opt-Clicking on the Main Knob. When any keyswitch feature is triggered (like the Round Robin Reset, Soft Release, etc.), the InfoView shows the triggered feature by its name.

All Berlin Percussion Collections control the True Damping in this view. Below the Main Knob you will see the patch name, the version of the collection it belongs to as well as the Capsule version.įor Strings, you will find a Con Sordino switch here which controls the Con Sordino emulation.
Single Articulation patches in their Performance View contain the Main Knob for velocity layer control, as well as other commonly used features. This section describes these common elements. All Single Articulation patches in all Orchestral Tools collections share a set of common UI elements and features that work across articulation types.
