What it does
- Choose MIDI notes, continuous Openness or Pedal CC4 performance modes.
- Edit articulation notes and calibrate the open and closed controller endpoints.
- Close a ringing hat with pedal movement and configure automatic pedal-chick behavior.
- Explore distinct synthesis models, recording slots, waveform previews and velocity controls.
Using the plugin
Map the articulation notes for a programmed groove, or calibrate CC4 for a physical pedal. Use half-open sounds and gradual closure to add movement between the fully closed and open positions.
Project status
Private Windows VST3 development build. Model implementations and recording availability vary; complete original-hardware calibration is not claimed.
