Notes from the bench

All entries
How to Use XY Bass: Depth, Translation, and the Line Between ThemWhat the two axes of XY Bass actually move, how the pitch tracker decides between reinforcing a fundamental and rebuilding it, and which of the 13 presets to start from on a bass, a kick or a mix bus.DSPHow to Use XY Reverse Slicer: Slice Length, Texture and the GridHow the two axes of XY Reverse Slicer work, why the slices land on the song timeline instead of on the moment you pressed play, and the settings that turn a vocal into a stutter or a chord into a swell.DSPHow to Use XY Space: Distance Is Not a Wet/Dry KnobWhat CLOSE to FAR and SMALL to HUGE actually move in XY Space, why distance is not a wet/dry knob, and how to use it as a send, as an insert and on a drum bus.DSP
