The TTS‑1 was introduced when the Pentium 4 and Celeron D were high-performance processors. Different sounds can feed the same output (if you want to load more than four instruments, they'll have to), but the same sound can't feed different outputs. On the Output Assign tab, tick Use Multiple Outputs, and then choose which Parts/mixer channels go to which outputs. Note also that in the System settings you'll find a Master Tune control, a Key Shift transposition control, and the ability to set polyphony from 10 to 128 voices. Click on the System button towards the right, then click on the Option button. Click and hold on the little note below a mixer channel, and a phrase will play to show you what the instrument sounds like.Įach instrument can go through one of the four stereo outputs. To select a sound, click on the instrument name at the bottom of the TTS‑1 mixer, and choose from the Preset menu. This allows maximum flexibility with assigning MIDI tracks to different instrument channels, and different instruments to different audio outputs.Įach of the 16 Parts (presets) in the 16 mixer channels corresponds to the equivalently numbered MIDI channel.
When you insert the plug-in, tick All Synth Audio Outputs: Stereo, MIDI Source and Synth Track Folder.
When you first insert TTS‑1 into your project, avoid using a Simple Instrument Track, because the TTS‑1 supports 16 MIDI channels and provides four audio outputs. Besides, many of the sounds still hold up after all these years - so, here are some of my favourite TTS‑1 tips.
Yet to dismiss it would be a mistake, because the TTS‑1 has a number of really useful mobile-friendly features: WASAPI's low latency with a laptop's internal sound card, the virtual touchscreen or QWERTY controller, low CPU footprint, and multitimbral operation. It won't function at 88.2kHz sample rates, and it's only available in DXi format. It comes bundled for free with BandLab, and has a user interface that looks like a Ready Player One concept art reject. It's over 14 years old and still on version 1.00. The TTS‑1 synth may be old, but it's still got some power! You can assign any TTS‑1 instrument to one of four individual outputs.
