Description - Factory Alpha Instruments


All the factory setups of the Alpha have the same instrument configuration, they differ mostly in the available splits and keygroups.

These are the instruments that are available:

Audio Unit Instruments

The Alpha's controllers are available through the Audio Unit parameter grid configuration and are set up as follows:

  • Strip controller 1: AU parameter column 1
  • Strip controller 2: AU parameter column 2
  • Breath controller (blow): AU parameter column 3
  • Breath controller (suck): AU parameter column 4
  • Key pressure: note activation/velocity/aftertouch & AU parameter column 5
  • Key roll: pitch bend (range 1 semitone) & AU parameter column 6
  • Key yaw: AU parameter column 7
  • Pedal 1: AU parameter column 8
  • Pedal 2: AU parameter column 9
  • Absolute strip position 1: AU parameter column 10
  • Absolute strip position 2: AU parameter column 11
