Hive 2 is able to assign XY controls to parameters automatically. On this page you’ll find a pad with 4 controls – simply connect them to your MIDI controllers for maximum fun on stage. The row of 5 modifiers per target can alter the curvature, rectify, quantize, sample/hold or slew-limit the modulation signal: This is seriously deep stuff, but it doesn’t get in the way! Performance controls 2 targets can be assigned per unit, each with its own modulatable depth control. Hive 2 features a 12-unit modulation matrix (6 units per page) which lets you connect modulation sources (LFOs, envelopes, shape sequencer, MIDI controls etc.) to countless targets, optionally via a second modulation source. Hive’s hexagon includes 7 different effects: Distortion, Reverb, Equalier, Chorus, Delay, Compressor, and Phaser. The ARP/SEQ panel in the central hexagon is where you make rhythmic and melodic loops. Triggered and/or modulated by the LFOs, the Shape Sequencer and each other, Hive’s Function Generators can create some truly mind-bending motion effects! Arpeggiator and Sequencer Each of the three outputs has its own ‘crosshair’ you can drag & drop onto any modulation target, onto the Scope or even onto the modulation matrix source fields. Hive’s Function Generators combine simple envelope functionality with LFO, slew limiter (a.k.a. While it may look like a baby version of what other synths have to offer, Hive’s shape sequencer can do a lot more than first meets the eye… Function Generators It offers a comfortable way to ‘gamify’ rhythm creation. The Shape Sequencer is where you can create complex modulations and/or rhythmic patterns. uhm scripting guide More features Shape Sequencer If you’re interested in writing your own scripts, grab this document (also included in the Hive 2 installer)…
Want to go even deeper? Many of Hive’s factory wavetables are not samples, but “.uhm” files containing scripts written in a proprietary wavetable generation and manipulation language. This feature opens up a second dimension of wavetable scanning, such as velocity crossfade or multisample support. The lower Position knob will crossfade between those 3. For instance, a wavetable with 30 frames can be split into 3 x 10 frames by setting Tables to 3. Wavetables can be split into multiple parts (up to 16), effectively creating a 2-dimensional oscillator. You can manually select wavetables, modulate the wave position via the matrix, or even scan through them automatically using the envelope and loop options (which let you animate wavetables without the need for an extra modulation source).
Hive 2 includes Wavetables! These appear as multiple waveforms, and are controlled in the central hexagon.
