Sample Alchemy interface in MainStage

The Sample Alchemy interface consists of three primary sections:

• The upper section contains the Edit Mode buttons, the sample name and lock, the Amp/Mod button for the envelope generators, and the More button for settings.

• The middle section contains the source buttons, Mixer button, Play Modes buttons, Snap menu, and Mod Matrix. The central part of this view includes the sample waveform display and the source handles. Here you can interact with the sound by setting a play mode and moving the handles. This view changes depending on the selected mode. See play modes, Motion mode, and Trim mode.

• The lower section contains the source controls on the left, the synthesis modes and their parameters in the middle, and the Filter controls on the right. This view changes depending on the selected mode.
