Hardware requirements / recommendaons are based on esmates performed on available computers at D16 Group HQ,

and therefore cannot cover all possible conguraons available on the market. CPU usage may vary widely depending on the

manner in which the product is used. Factors that may contribute to variance in CPU usage include parcular patch and its

complexity, the global quality seng, project sample rate. In order to form a beer understanding of how a plug-in will behave

within your current setup, we highly recommend downloading the demo and giving it a try.

Preliminary informaon

Thischaptercontainsgeneraladviceforusingtheplug-in’sinterface.

To do a right-click on macOS with single buon mice:

Eitheruseyour mouse click whileholdingtheCTRL key onyourkeyboardorusetwo ngers onyourtouchpad.

Checking the value of a parameter

Right-click onanyparametertocheckitsvalueinitscontextmenu:

A parameter’s context menu

Note: It’s currently not possible to enter a precise value in the input box; it’s just to check the value.

Fine-tuning connuous parameters

Tweakacontrol(knob)whileholdingtheCTRL key(onWindows)or Apple CMDkey(onmacOS)-thiswillmake

thetweakingmoreprecisewhilemovingthemousepointerupanddown.

Double-click to reset a connuous parameter’s value

Double-clickingonaparameterrestoresitsvaluetotheinialstate,eitherdefault(rightaerloading

theplug-in/loadingitalongaprojectle)orfromthemostrecentlyloadedpreset.

Enabling parameters for automaon

Lush 2synthesizerhasthousandsofsoundparametersandVST/AU/AAXhostautomaonallowsonlyahandful

ofautomatableparameterssoby default all parameters are disabled for automaon.

Usingtheparameter’scontextmenu(describedabove),youcanenableautomaonforparametersyouwishto

controlexternally:

A parameter’s context menu

Lush 2 works only with specic sample rate values

Lush 2 worksonlywiththefollowingsampleratevalues[Hz]:

• 44100

• 48000

• 88200

• 96000

• 192000

Ifyoutrytouseanyothercustomsamplerate,theplug-inwillswitchinto44kHzmode,whichmaycauseitto

Introducon to Lush

Lush 2isapolyphonicsubtracvesynthesizer.Itsstructureisbasedon8layers.EachLayerisanindependentsynthe-

sizerwithitsownparametersandpolyphony.

EachofthelayerscanlistentoadierentMIDIchannelandrespondtoadierentkeyboardzone.Therefore,the

synthesizerworksasamul-mbralinstrumentwhereeachLayeriscontrolledviaadierentMIDI channel.Itis

alsopossibletoconvenientlysplitaMIDIkeyboardintosecons,wheredierentLayerslistentodierentkeyboard

seconsofthesameMIDI channel.YoucanalsocreatecomplexsoundtexturesbyoverlappingLayers,wheremore

thanonelayerlistenstothesamekeyboardzoneonthesameMIDIchannel.

Lush 2 allowsforconvenientmixingofLayerswithinacustom-designed,built-inMixer,wherewecanaddnaltouch-

esthroughparametricequalizers,compressors(oneperchannel)and3built-insendeects.Eachofthetrackscorre-

spondingtooneLayeroreachof3availableeecttrackscorrespondingto3sendeectscanbesenttoanyof11

availableplug-inoutputs.

The Zone Learn funcon

WecanuseittodeneaZone directlyfromtheMIDIkeyboard:

1. PresstheZone Learnbuon.

2. ClicktoselectarowintheZone Editor,whichwillturnorange.

4. WhenyoupresstwokeysonyourMIDIkeyboard,eithersimultaneouslyoronebyone,theplug-inwillautoma-

callysetthebeginningandendofaZone,takingthelowernoteasthebeginningandthehighernoteastheend.

5. Youcanrepeatsteps2–4ifyouwanttosetupMIDIZonesformorethanoneLayer.
