Preset tools
When a preset or one of its division is selected in the tree, the tool menu contains several tools sorted in 4 categories:
Using the tools simultaneously on several presets is possible (with a multi selection), except for the visualizer. All tools are also available for the instruments.
Analyze
Display parameters
Same tool than “Display parameters” for instruments.
Fast editing
Change attenuations
Same tool than “Change attenuations” for instruments.
Key-based configuration
Same tool than “Key-based configuration” for instruments.
Sound spatialization
Same tool than “Sound spatialization” for instruments.
Modulators
Remove modulators
Same tool than “Remove modulators” for instruments.
Transformation
Division duplication
Same tool than “Division duplication” for instruments.
Merge samples for each note
In the case where a preset calls several instruments and samples simultaneously when a key is struck, this tool will merge, for each note, all the samples played. The result is a new preset that plays only one sample per key, thus reducing the CPU load required to run the preset.
The options defined in the image below will make the tool simulate every 3 notes a 5-second key press. The audio recording will be in stereo and the release will not be recorded. The samples thus created will then be looped using the auto-loop tool and the instrument containing all these samples will be named “Cymbale III”.
Note: using the auto loop option will remove the release part and slighly decrease the sustained duration of each sample.
Polyphone is free but there are costs associated with its website and development. A small donation will help a lot.
