Discover also how, within the Decay panel, the decay time and modulation range of each step can be adjusted and offset with the Tails macro knob.
There's plenty more to come as well, including the Volume panel (add dynamics to each step), Gates macro (adjusting gate value, etc.), Pitch panel (detuning and other pitch effects), Tuning macro (modulation, etc.), Layer settings (control of playback speed, direction, etc.), FX, key mapping (manipulating the plugin via external MIDI controller), and much more!
