Glossary

DM PRO REFERENCE MANUAL 1 6 7

TUNE The Function that alters the Pitch of a Drum in Drumkit

Mode.

UNIPOLAR In one direction only. Modulation Matrix Amounts are

unipolar in that they can only Modulate the Destination

Parameter one way (up only or down only).

VALUE The amount, or setting of a Parameter. In the example,

“AENV Attack: 32”, the number “32” is the Value. In the

example, “FX Bus: REVERB”, the word “REVERB” is the

Value.

VELOCITY A MIDI Value from 0 - 127 that describes how hard a

note is hit. In most cases, Velocity controls the volume of

a sound. In the DM Pro, Velocity can also modulate

many other parameters such as Filter Frequency or

Envelope Stages.

VOICE (1) The term for an individual digital sample or

multisample such as WoodSnare1, Loop Hat 4, Bead

Shake, Vibraphone, Marimba, etc.

(2) The basic sample-playback generator used by the

DM Pro. The DM-Pro has 64 dynamically-allocated

Voices available at any one time for the Sounds

within the Drums to use. The number of Sounds

layered within each Drum being played directly

impacts the number of Voices available for other

Drums to utilize. In other words, a single strike of a

four-Sound Drum uses four times as many Voices as

a one-Sound Drum.

WET Lots of effects.
