There are two ways of creating a VSL sound set library. The first one is with keyswitches - this is the default VSL setup. The second one is to do your own Program Changes sound set to switch between Patches. In this example we use the 'VSL Prepared Piano' instrument. First the keyswitches sound set: (def-sound-set VSL-Prepared-Piano-KS :programs (:group Main chain (:key c7 :key a0) double-screw (:key cs7 :key a0) harmoinic (:key d7 :key a0) harmoinic-secco (:key ds7 :key a0) foil (:key e7 :key a0) glass (:key f7 :key a0) stick (:key fs7 :key a0) stick-roll (:key g7 :key a0) glissandi (:key gs7 :key a0) ) :controllers (:group Default-Settings Pitch 0 Velocity-XF 2 Volume 7 Pan 10 Expression 11 Reverb-Dry/Wet 14 Reverb-On/Off 15 Slot-XF 20 Start-Scaler 21 Master-Attack 22 Master-Release 23 Master-Filter 24 Delay-Scaler 25 Tuning-Scaler 26 Humanize 27 Velocity-XF-On-Off 28 Rsamp-On-Off 29 Dynamics-Scaler 30 :group Pedal Ped 64 Sost-Ped 66 Una-Corda 67 :group Matrix cc1 1 )) Here is the Program Changes sound set: (def-sound-set VSL-Prepared-Piano :programs (:group Main chain (cc101 0) double-screw (cc101 15) harmoinic (cc101 29) harmoinic-secco (cc101 43) foil (cc101 57) glass (cc101 71) stick (cc101 85) stick-roll (cc101 99) glissandi (cc101 113) ) :controllers (:group Default-Settings Pitch 0 Velocity-XF 2 Volume 7 Pan 10 Expression 11 Reverb-Dry/Wet 14 Reverb-On/Off 15 Slot-XF 20 Start-Scaler 21 Master-Attack 22 Master-Release 23 Master-Filter 24 Delay-Scaler 25 Tuning-Scaler 26 Humanize 27 Velocity-XF-On-Off 28 Rsamp-On-Off 29 Dynamics-Scaler 30 :group Pedal Ped 64 Sost-Ped 66 Una-Corda 67 :group Matrix cc101 101)) Please note that if you want to use the full range of the piano you will have to set the keyswitch range outside the range of the piano or set Program Changes to switch between Patches.
