Sculpture Vibrato parameters in MainStage
One LFO is hard-wired to pitch, for vibrato effects, periodic pitch modulations. You can adjust the strength of the vibrato effect with the MIDI controller you choose from the Vib Depth Ctrl pop-up menu, which is in the MIDI Controller Assignment section. See Define Sculpture MIDI controllers.
Vibrato parameters
Waveform pop-up menu: Choose the waveform used for vibrato. See Sculpture LFO waveforms.
Note: There are two special rectangular waves, Rectangle unipolar (shown as Rect01 when active) and Rectangle bipolar (Rect11 when active)—the former switching between values of 0.0 and 1.0, and the latter switching between values of −1.0 and +1.0.
Curve knob: Change the shape of modulation waveforms. Such variations can result in subtle or drastic changes to your modulation waveforms.
Note: The waveform displayed between the Curve knob and the Waveform menu shows the results of these two parameter settings.
Phase knob: Choose between strictly monophonic or polyphonic vibrato with variable phase relationships. These can be similar phases, completely random phase relationships, key-synced phases—or any value in between. For more details, see Sculpture LFO overview.
Rate knob and field: Set the rate of vibrato, which can be either synced to the host application tempo or set independently in Hz values.
Sync/Free buttons: Select either a synchronized or free-running vibrato rate. These buttons interact with the Rate knob. The synchronized value is derived from the MainStage tempo and meter.
DepthviaVibCtrl sliders: Drag to define the impact of the controller assigned to Vib Depth Ctrl (see Define Sculpture MIDI controllers).
Via slider: Determine the modulation intensity of the controller assigned to Vib Depth Ctrl.
Amt slider: Determine the maximum modulation amount.
