ZEN-Core editing sectionn
Editing of ZEN-Core tones structured in 6 subsections where you can modify
all the synthesis parameters and those relating to the 93 effects provided by
the standard. Below is a list of the main features.
- Editing of each of the 136 ZEN-Core
Tones usable in each MC-707
project (16 ZEN-Core tones if Sound
Source=Clip + 1 ZEN-Core tone if Sound
Source=Track, all for 8 tracks)
- Editing of each of the 68 ZEN-Core
Tones usable in each MC-101
project (16 ZEN-Core tones if Sound
Source=Clip + 1 ZEN-Core tone if Sound
Source=Track, all for 4 tracks)
- Vector and resizable graphic interface.
- Communication speed between groovebox and computer capable of real-time
listening of changes without any additional latency. The division of the summary
parameters allows the editing of the most important parameters in a single
screen.
- Real time graphic display of the envelopes (Filter, AMP and Pitch) and the
keyboard and velocity range sections
- Copy and paste of partials via
clipboard.
- Use of Macro controls to speed up editing by controlling the
same parameter of any combination of the 4 partials in parallel.
- Editing of "hidden" ZEN-Core synthesis parameters not directly
accessible in the synths: VCF Gain Correction,
Partial LFO Phase Lock, Pitch Down Depth, Pitch Drift, Pitch Drift Cycle Number - Condition e VA Init Phase
- 4-track step sequencer. Using a Template it is possible to
obtain 4-voice melodic and rhythmic sequences with a single Zen-Core tone,
synchronized with the scene BPM.
To do this, up to 8 STEP-LFOs (2 for each partial) and 128 steps in total are
used simultaneously, all organized in a graphic interface designed to facilitate
programming.
- 24 ZEN-Core presets, divided into:
INI: simple sounds to use as a template for editing. PR1: some of the most significant sounds from the optional
library that can be purchased separately PR2: ZEN-Core tones of rhythmic and melodic sequences (8
STEP LFO and related template)
- Complete editing of the 93 effects of ZEN-Core standard and
25 presets for the most used effects
- import of ZEN-Core tones and conversion of sounds generated
with Model Expansions
All synths compatible with the ZEN-Core standard, the Roland
Zenology Pro software and the ZenBeat ZC1 player, are able to export the
ZEN-Core User Tones and, if available, the User Tones obtained to files (.SVZ
format) with the various Model Expansions.
Through a proprietary conversion algorithm it is possible to load and
convert the user Tones (*.svz files) into the format used by the
editor-librarian, so as to load the user sounds of your synths into the library
and possibly modify them via the editor. This is possible thanks to a series of proprietary conversion routines.
For equivalent Model Expansions User Tone→Tone ZEN-Core conversion, the USER
TONES of the following Model Expansions are supported: JUNO-106 -JX-8P
-JUPITER-8 -SH-101 - Juno-60 - JUNO-X engine - JUPITER-X/XM engine
IMPORTANT: *.SDZ sound banks (those that can be purchased via Roland Cloud
Manager) are NOT supported as they are encrypted and protected by license.
ZEN-Core Librarian Section
Management of 16384 ZEN-Core tones, all resident in memory, via a
database structured in 8 libraries (Lib1-Lib2,..Lib8) each composed of
2048 tones. Each of the 8 libraries is divided into 16 banks
(A-B-C .P) of 128 tones each.
The dialogue between Librarian and
Groovebox is in real time and it is possible to transfer
each tone to the synth in a fraction of a second
thanks to the speed of groovebox - computer
communication and the ability of the software to
quickly manage MIDI SysEx messages.
Each ZEN-Core tone of the library
can be sent to any of the Tracks/Clips in a project
within the groovebox (136 locations in MC-707 and
68 in MC-101)
Possible operations:
- Load and Save to file the various
data structures: entire database (16384 Tones),
single library (2048 tones), single bank (128 Tones)
and single tone.
- Save in the library of the tones
transferred from the synth and possibly modified
with the editor.
- Insert e Delete tones
- Moving the individual banks (128
Tones) using a Bank Clipboard
- Copy and paste functionality of
tone groups, from/to the library, using a clipboard
of variable size (1-48 Tones).
Project Section
Possible operations:
- edit of the offsets of the parameters of the 4/8
tracks (MC 101/707): Volume, Pan, Cutoff, Res, Attack, Decay, Release,
Vibrato, Portamento, SYS Ctrl and send to Delay and Reverb.
- edit of all the parameters of Chorus/Delay and Reverb effects with the
possibility of using 40 Reverb presets.
- edit of 5-band Master EQ,
4/8 (MC 101/707) Equalizers of the
tracks and edit of Project Master Compressor
with the possibility of recalling 18 presets
