2 E-MU Systems
Unique to Audity is its ability to control synth parameters as well as
arpeggiator tempos from its internal clock (or an external MIDI clock). Up
to 8 LFOs and 12 envelopes can be perfectly synchronized at different rates!
Four front panel real-time controllers give you control over 8 user-selectable
parameters as well as four arpeggiator functions. The real-time knobs can
adjust multiple synthesizer functions at once allowing complex levels of
control. Virtually every synth parameter in the Audity 2000 is controllable
using the real-time knobs or by any internal or external control source.
Six 18-bit analog outputs let you process separate sounds and integral effect
sends externally. Returns allow the addition of external effects units
without the need for a separate mixer.
Once you have created your preset, you can add richness to your sound
using Audity 2000's 24-bit stereo effects. You can choose a different effects
setup for each preset from over 60 algorithms. Audity's effects section is
actually two separate effects processors with control over each wet/dry mix
level. Effects Processor "A" contains primarily ambiance algorithms like
reverb and delays, while effects processor "B" contains primarily spectral
algorithms such as chorus, flange, phase, distortion, and delay. Effects can
be linked to each preset or used globally to further enhance your sound.
The S/PDIF digital stereo output lets you connect to other digital
equipment, such as digital mixers or external effects devices.
Other features include multiple solo, voice assignment and performance
modes for expressive control, user-definable alternate tuning, an extremely
easy to use interface and, of course, an extensive MIDI implementation.
This is the Operations Manual for setting up and playing Audity 2000. The
first part of the manual describes how to unpack and setup the hardware.
The next chapters provide step-by-step instructions for the most common
and widely used features of Audity 2000. This section also defines each of
the parameters (by menu) and provides information on how to use them.
The appendix provides technical information, product specifications and
the Index.
