Sample/Hold - CreamWare PRODYSSEY ASB Benutzerhandbuch

Sample/Hold

Sample/Hold transforms a continuous signal into a stepped signal
by taking a sample from the sample/hold mixer's signal at assigna-
ble intervals and memorizes (or "holds") this value until the next
sample is taken. This sampling can be triggered by the LFO or by
pressing a key. Various combinations of assigned signals and set
trigger modes can produce different types of effects. For example,
a smoothly rising sawtooth can be turned into a series of upwards
steps, or the noise source can be made into a random modulation
signal that changes according to the speed of the LFO. You can
use Output Lag to smooth out the Sample/Hold steps.
Trigger Mode
The Sample/Hold process can periodically be triggered via the LFO
or manually by playing notes on a keyboard. Choosing the LFO
triggers sample/hold in time with the LFO frequency, meaning the
sample/hold process takes place once for every cycle. Selecting
the keyboard as the trigger will causes the sample/hold to start
when a new note is played.
Output Lag
A high-pass filter at the output of the sample/hold can smooth out
the sample/hold's hard steps and jumps. The higher the setting, the
greater the smoothing.
