Videos

• HYBRID KEYS Flyover (06:11) - Take a quick tour around the interface and learn about the central features that make this instrument creatively stimulating.

• Assigning Controllers & Automating Macros (04:45) - Discover how simple it is to assign hardware controllers and automate the macro knobs, and learn about the different types of sounds available in the Browsers, all as we easily and intuitively modify an actual keyboard part.

• Lo Fi Layer Effects (06:56) - Explore the Lo Fi sample and Lo Fi wavetable effects available in the Layer section of the Sound View.

• Exploring the Filters (08:36) - Hear how the filters are used to attenuate or boost various areas of a sound's frequency spectrum and how to animate the movement using a modulation envelope.

• Amp Envelope (06:41) - Watch how this envelope is used to shape the sound of a note over its duration as we develop a bass sound. Also learn how it's used as a modulation source routed to multiple target parameters.

• Modulation & LFOs (09:35) - Explore more about modulation and how LFOs work on various parameters.

• Modwheel, Aftertouch, & Velocity (07:07) - See some examples of these performance-based controllers in use modulating various parameters in real time as parts are performed.

• Secondary Modulation (04:24) - Discover the rhythmic potential achieved by modulating the LFO rate - either with the other LFO or with the modulation envelope.

• FX Overview (05:23) - Learn how to manage and work with FX units and FX chains in the HYBRID KEYS FX View.

• The Sequencer: Pitch & Velocity (10:09) - Explore the analog-style step sequencer and hear how it's used to create arpeggiated-style note patterns that conform to a specific key and scale.

• Programming Macros (07:46) - Learn how to build up macro assignments from scratch, set min/max value ranges, adjust the shaper curve, and more.

• Macro Sequencing (06:45) - Discover how the sequencer is used to modulate the macro values based on the individual step amounts, macro smoothing, direction, and other sequencer playback parameters.

• Settings View (07:14) - Set how HYBRID KEYS responds to your keyboard or MIDI, including the velocity response curve, note priority, key range, pitch bend range, and glide.
