194 TASCAM GigaEditor 4 Manual
is rule was created to enhance sample libraries that rely on the real ambience of the room or hall they
were recorded in for a lush and authentic reverb tail . By putting the release of the recordings on the release
trigger, the results are stunning. However, there is a problem with this method. Sometimes the samples
are expressive and use diminuendos and cres cendos or simply fade out. The problem occurs when a note is
released while the sample has died out or is at a low point in its volume: if the release sample plays back at
its default volume, a sudden unnatural increase in volume is heard. This rule solves that problem by
constantly tracking the signal level of each sample and setting the volume of the release tr igger samples
accordingly .
The configuration dialog for this rule is shown belo w . The samp le’s voice parameters, such as t h e
amplitude envelope, are always included in the tracking calculation. Optionally, the sample’s signal level
can also be tracked.
The Rule Builder
e Rule Builder is a special iMIDI rule that allows you to perform complex tr ansformations of MIDI data.
It can take any incom ing MIDI event at any range, a nd have it trigg er any other kind of MIDI event with its
own range of setti ngs. It’s the equ ivalent of havi ng a built-in high end MIDI proces sor. e Rule Builder
enables library developers to cr eate custom MIDI respons es and lters for th eir instruments.
e Rule Builder dialog is shown below.
