Studiologic Sledge 2.0 Features:
Auto Dual mode:
Sledge 2.0 can now play two sounds at the same time, in Split or Layer mode;the feature is controlled by a new page of the Global function and allows tosimply keep one note (for Split) or more notes (for Layer) and then select anew sound, that will be added to the previous sound; as any other sound, alsoDual Sound combinations can be permanently stored in any of the 1.000available presets.
Sample Player:
Sound samples and new waves can be loaded in the internal 60 megabyte of Flashmemory, played by OSC 1 and modifiable by all parameters of the control panel,adding other oscillators, setting filters, envelopes and effects. This featurecan constantly expands the instrument’s sounds and create a totally newcombination of synthesis and sampling.
Pitch & Hold controls:
A new Global page allows to enable the Pitch and theHold separately for the Lower and Upper sounds in Dual Mode, allowing to usethe Pitch bend on the Upper sound (i.e. for solo parts) and the Hold pedal tocontrol only the Lower (to keep playing a Drums groove or as a Damper for aPiano sound) and vice versa, or to enable Pitch Bend and Hold on both Upperand Lower sounds;
Reverb+Delay:
A new function allows to mixboth effects; the Reverb keeps the setting previously selected, while the realtime controls (time and level) allows to set the parameters of Delay also whenmixed.
Enhanced Polyphony:
The total maximum number or notes that can be played atthe same time have been expanded to 24, allowing to get a better real timecontrol over the new sound possibilities obtainable from synthesis andsampling together.
Sledge Spectre:
Samples can beedited (keyboard range, tuning and other parameters) and transmitted to Sledge2.0 by the USB port, with this easy sample editor that allows to first loadand play the samples on your Computer and then download them into theinstrument's memory.
