True Pedaling - Steinberg HALION4 Mode D'emploi

True Pedaling

This MIDI module produces a modulation signal from the sustain pedal, which you can
use to simulate true pedaling of grand pianos. Instead of switching between two
layers, this module allows you to crossfade between layers when you press or lift the
sustain pedal, which produces a more realistic sound.
To set up a crossfade between two layers, proceed as follows:
1. Set the Level parameter of the zones with the note-on samples to the default level
(0 dB).
2. Set the Level parameter of the zones with the sustain resonance samples to the
minimum setting.
3. In the modulation matrix, select the True Pedaling module as the modulation
source and assign it to the modulation destination Level.
4. To bring the crossfade into effect, modulate the level of the note-on samples in
negative direction and the level of the sustain resonance samples in positive
direction.
The following settings are available:
Option
Fade In Time
Fade In Curve
Fade Out Time
Fade Out Curve
Time Out
5. Once the modulation is set up, the resonance samples are triggered with each
note, but you do not hear them until you press the sustain pedal.
Description
Specifies the fade in time of the modulation signal, when you
press the sustain pedal.
Sets the curvature of the fade in. Use negative values for an
outward shaped curve and positive values for an inward
shaped curve.
Specifies the fade out time of the modulation signal, when
you lift the sustain pedal.
Sets the curvature of the fade out. Use positive values for an
outward shaped curve and negative values for an inward
shaped curve.
On acoustic pianos, pressing the sustain pedal after a certain
time has little to no effect. You can achieve the same effect
by using this parameter: Pressing the sustain pedal after the
time you set here will have no effect. Any resonance samples
that have been triggered, but were not faded in, are released.
