FEATURES*

VIBES MODE | Replicates authentic vibraphone techniques with realistic handling of dampened and sustained notes via the sustain pedal (including after-pedaling). Ideal for users with dedicated mallet controllers (ie Pearl MalletStation)

SUSTAIN | Single articulation of samples recorded with the sustain pedal down for the full natural decay of sustained notes

SHORT | Single articulation of samples played with the sustain pedal up, for the full natural decay of dampened notes (decay time is user-controllable via they ADVANCED tab)

BLUR MODE | Automatic sustain control and note-dampening for melodic playing, blurred runs, arpeggios, and glissandi

DYNAMIC ROLLS | Designed primarily for playing rolls on a single note, (although multiple notes can be played simultaneously, if desired)
