12 Sampling Instruments That Morph and Layer Multiple Sources

Pro Audio Files: The term Vector Synthesis refers to a synthesis technique which creates, “…movement in a sound by providing dynamic cross-fading between (usually) four sound sources. The four sound sources are conceptually arranged as the extreme points of X and Y axes and typically labeled A, B, C and D. A given mix of the four sound sources can be represented by a single point in this ‘vector plane’ (source). In Synthesizers like the Prophet by Sequential Circuits, the sources are digital wavetable oscillators.
