The Modwheel adds chorus FX, reduces LP filter cutoff and increases filter resonance. Macro 1 adds delay FX.

Big Cinepad Split
Cinematic pad/drone sound composed from 2 long synthesizer textures/samples which have an overlapping split zone between C2 - C3 (C3 - C4 in Iris). The upper layer uses the same sample twice in oscillators 2+3, with different spectral selections applied, osc 3 playing backwards/forwards, both oscs have an LFO assigned to pan position, control amount of pan modulation individually with Macros 4+5, change the pan-mod-speed with M6. All oscs run in Non-Retrigger mode.

Oscillator 1 uses a rubato sequence (root/fifth/octave) played on my classical guitar recorded through a pickup, somewhat processed with soft-and hardware FX, root note: E1 (E2 in Iris), playing in Non-Retrigger mode. Osc2 uses a a solo phrase with fret noises, root E4 (E5 in Iris), split point is B2/C3 (B3/C4 in Iris). If you play shorter notes you can use the sample in the high register for harp-like pluck sunds and chords. Set the oscillators to Radius RT mode if you want to preserve the original tempi of the sequence and phrase. The Modwheel adds noise-shaped pitch modulation, chorus FX and decreases LP filter cutoff. Add delay FX with Macro 1 (x) control delay time and feedback with M2 (y). M3 controls amount of reverb FX.

Nightmare Beauty Split
All oscillators use a long mysterious texture made with various synths, crusherX and other FX, all oscs are running in Non-Retrigger mode.

Osc1 is running in Radius RT mode, osc2 in Non-Retrigger mode, overlapping split point is C4 (C5 in Iris). The Modwheel adds fast random pitch modulation. With Macro 2 (y) down, the LP filter cutoff is modulated by an LFO, M1 (x) controls modulation speed. Please check the Macro page to learn how the other 6 assigned Macros affect the sound.

Spectral Gliss Drone
Long drone texture with spectral glissandi made with Razor and MeldaMBandGranular. Both oscillators (running in Non-Retrigger mode) use the same sample playing different specral aspects from it. The volume of osc2 (the high glissandi) is assigned to the Modwheel (-20 dB with the wheel down). Macro 1 (x) adds temposynced amplitude modulation (triplets), M2 (y) adds temposynced delay FX. M3 controls LP filter cutoff, M4 adds stereo phasing.
