Sea Sampler

• Drop in your Samples - The Sea Sampler will analyze and automap them, creating an Object
• Manipulate Objects - drag in their center to move them, or drag on edges to resize. You can also remove them by making them very small
• Spawn Fish - Each pitch you play spawns a different color fish. The fish's starting speed depends on how hard you play. When fish collide with objects, the object's sample gets triggered, whatever pitch the fish is. The faster the fish, the louder it will be.
• Emitter - This is where fish spawn from. When you drag it around, it will attract the fish. The faster it is moved, the more the fish will be attracted. Note that if you turn down Visual Range, the fish further away won’t be able to see the emitter.
• Pedal - Hold down the Pedal to keep fish alive even after you have let go of the key
• Pitchwheel - Speed up or slow down the boid simulation’s framerate using the Pitchwheel
• Max Fish Control - This controls how many fish there can be at once. Once the limit is reached, the oldest fish are replaced by the new ones
• Modwheel - The higher you put the Modwheel, the more often fish will emit
• Expression (CC 11) - Move Expression to twirl the emitter in a circle
• Change the sound of objects by changing their pitch, filtering them, sending them to different reverbs, or enveloping them.

• Start out with 30 nki presets
• Presets include samples taken from other Osterhouse Sounds libraries, synthesized sounds, and recordings of household objects
