There are usually multiple ways to achieve the same result.
Some of the actions rely on using the keyboard, there is no menu item for every action.
Bespoke synth sometimes uses different terminology than other DAWs or it uses familiar words in unusual way.
There you can find where to look when you are looking for something:
- control voltage - pulse
- filter - biquad or butterworth in effectchain, but most complex synths has filter already built-in
- oscillator - Bespoke oscillator is in fact full featured synth, use signalgenerator if you want low level oscillator
- reverb - look for freeverb in effectchain
- sequencer - look to instruments menu
- transpose - use capo for transposing notes by semitones, noteoctaver for transposing by octave and transposefrom for transposing according to scale
- oscilloscope - waveformviewer or spectrum
- choose from main menu
- hold first letter of module name (e.g. o for
oscillator) and then choose from the menu - if you cannot find desired module, see terminology to find out what you really need
Note cables carry the following data:
- Note as a number from 0 to 127 similar to the MIDI standard
- Velocity as a number from 0 to 127 similar to the MIDI standard
- Voice Id as a number from -1 to 15 allowing voice selection in modules that support it (or output as midi channel information)
- Modulation which contains the following parameters:
- Pitchbend
- Modwheel
- Pressure (also known as after touch)
- Pan as a number between -1 and 1 allowing per note panning
Pulse cables carry the following data:
- Velocity as a number from 0 to 127 similar to the MIDI standard
- Flag with the following options:
- None
- Reset
- Random
- SyncToTransport
- Backward
- Align
- Repeat
Audio cables hold either a single channel or a stereo pair of audio.
There are two types of modulation cable one is referred to as a "value setter" cable which you can see in action with the valuesetter module and a couple of others. And the other modulation cable type you can see in for instance the macroslider module.
The difference is slight and usually you don't actually need to know that they are different but value setter cables usually need to be triggered to send their value to the target while the other always sets the value immediately.
A grid cable can connect grid controllers to modules that can receive grid like information like for instance a midicontroller to a drumsynth. In most cases the functionality can also be done with notes instead.
There are some cables that have completely custom behavior such as the snapshots module connector or the looperrecorder looper connection cables.
- hold alt and drag module by it's title bar
- click dot before module name in title bar
- lasso select modules you want to delete and then press backspace
- use triangle menu in module title bar and delete module button
- drag from dot at the bottom of source module to destination module
- click the dot at the bottom of source module and then dot in title bar of destination module
- note that you can only connect which have right type of signal (e.g. cannot connect
notesequenceroutput togain)
- hold shift and drag from where you want to split cable
- if you are splitting audio cable,
sendmodule is created
- drag cable from either end and hit backspace
- hold shift and then drag bottom dot of module to target
- hover the mouse over slider, enter the desired value using number keys and hit enter
- press F2 to switch envelope from graphics view to sliders view
- right click slider and LFO popup appears
- click pin in LFO popup
- choose 'manage VSTs...' from the 'vst plugins' dropdown in the title bar
