ANALOG MOTION - VINTAGE EXPLORATIONS
Utilizing Falcon’s deep synthesis and modulation capabilities, the Analog Motion expansion delivers rich and dynamic electronic timbres evocative of the golden age of analog synthesis. Analog Motion was inspired by the vanguards of synth-driven pop music and classic genre film scores of the ‘80s, such as John Carpenter, Vangelis, Giorgio Moroder, Tangerine Dream and Thomas Dolby.
Drawing from these influences, Analog Motion provides Falcon users with a wide variety of patch types, including single-key soundscapes, arpeggiated sequences, traditional polyphonic synth sounds, rhythmic textures and more. This expansion pack of over 120 presets is ideal as either professional grade analog-inspired synth patches ready for immediate use, or as inspirational starting points for adventurous producers eager to tap into Falcon’s full potential as a sound design platform.
MADE FOR FALCON
The Analog Motion expansion leverages the advanced synthesis capabilities and software architecture of Falcon, which sports 15 oscillators, over 80 eects and a fast and intuitive interface that adeptly handles both basic tasks and deep instrument design. All presets have been programmed with macros which provide the user with easy access to the key parameters of each patch. These may be controlled via MIDI, OSC, host automation and Lua scripting, allowing for easy customization and expressive performance capabilities. Take your experience to the next level with this specially made Falcon expansion pack. (Falcon license required. Not compatible with UVI Workstation.)

INFO
The Info tab provides an overview of the selected program, houses macro controls, and provides a location for custom text and images via. the (I) view.
MACROS
Same as Falcon Factory Content, Analog Motion’s
1
patches have been programed with macros which provide users with easy access to the ‘key’ prameters of each patch. These may be controlled via MIDI, OSC, host automation and Lua scripting, allowing for easy customization and expressive performance capabilities.
To change the layout of the macro controls, press the EDIT button in the upper left to switch to Edit Mode. You can freely move controls, double-click a label to rename it, or access additional commands from the right-click contextual menu. For more details on macros, please see
Falcon’s software manual.
PROGRAM INFORMATION
Press the (I) button in the upper right to display program information. Many factory presets will contain details about the program such as modwheel assignments, macro descriptions or tips for playing it. You can add and save descriptions for your own programs as well.

KEYBOARD
At the bottom of the Info tab, a keyboard is displayed and
2
can be clicked to play the program. The key range of the program is highlighted, with keys outside the key range darkened. If keyswitch layer rules have been created, those keys are highlighted blue. Additionally, key color can be customized using the Script Processor. For more details on keyswitches, please check Falcon’s software
manual.

LAYERS OF A PATCH
Patches in Falcon are created within a fixed hierarchy that can be thought of like layers or folders. At the very top is the Program, inside the Program are Layers, within each Layer are Keygroups, and inside the Keygroups are Oscillators. Audio eects, MIDI eects and modulators can be placed on any level. While patches can be as simple as a single oscillator, the structure of Falcon allows for wildly complex sounds of nearly any variety to be quickly created and edited.

EDIT
If you want more control over a sound than the macros provide, the EDIT tab gives you full access to all parameters. Here you can make fine adjustments to any aspect of a sound or redesign it in any way you can imagine. Here is a brief overview of the EDIT screen hierarchy, for more information please consult the Falcon
software manual.
PROGRAM EDITOR
The top-most level of your patch, use the Program editor to
1
make broad changes that eect the overall sound of your patch. For example, try adding audio or MIDI eects, or adjusting volume, pan and pitch.
LAYER EDITOR
Layers are used to group and modify Keygroups. Here you
2
can add audio eects, MIDI eects and modulations just like the Program level, but you also have control of attributes like velocity curve, polyphony modes and unison settings.
KE YGROUP EDITOR
Keygroups are the ground level of your patch, they can
3
hold any number of oscillators and define which MIDI notes and velocity ranges trigger those oscillators. They also set basic oscillator attributes like pitch and trigger modes. Like the previous ‘folders’, keygroups can contain eects and modulators, but there is one significant dierence: eects instanced at the keygroup level operate per-voice. This can have fantastic eects, but comes at an additional CPU cost so consider how you use it carefully.

MAPPING EDITOR
The mapping editor allows you to define the note and velocity
4
ranges of the selected keygroup. A patch can be as simple as one keygroup that spans all notes and velocities, or as complex as your desired sound requires; there are no set limits.
OSCILLATOR EDITOR
Falcon has many types of oscillators including sample-based
5
and algorithmic. Here you can edit existing oscillators, change them or add new ones.
MODULATION EDITOR
Modulators can be instanced at any of the levels mentioned
6
above and this particular editor provides a centralized view of all of them - allowing editing of modulator parameters (e.g. LFO speed, ADSR values etc.) along with their assignments. All modulators in a patch are represented by tabs. Once clicked, the modulators’ assignments are displayed directly above the tab. Here you can edit how they eect the various parameters they are assigned to in your patch.
