Features

General:
16-voice Hybrid synthesizer based on Reason Studio Vecto Rack Extension.

Presets / Folder & Global Section:

Over 1400 Presets sorted in Bank Folders
Quick Browser’, ‘Favorites’, and ‘Star’ systems in the bank manager.
ECS (External MIDI Control) VECTO can modify its sound parameters dynamically in response to MIDI messages received from an external controller. These settings can be saved and loaded from your HardDisk.
Help which opens up the Vecto PDF manual.
Bank Manager
Vecto Logo Clicking on the Vecto logo takes you to the Back Panel. The Back Panel shows global settings and infrequently accessed controls.
Control menu available in the upper right corner for global settings

Oscillator Section:
The heart of Vecto is the XY-controlled 4 Oscillators with analog-modelled waveforms, spectrum waveforms, and a range of built-in samples

Analog-modelled waveforms, spectrum waveforms, and a range of built-in samples.
Granular mode for the built-in samples with grain size, length, and random
Spread (creates a stacked 2 oscillator sound in each of the 4 oscillators)
Sub. The sub-oscillator knob lets you select two different waveforms sinus or square..
Sym (Sym controls the symmetry of the oscillator waveform)
SMOD (Symmetry Modulation) Amount
Oscillator retrigger modes
Routing options

XY Section
The XY pad is a combination of a live, interactive control, and also an automated programmable tempo-based control for the 4 Oscillator volumes. Additionally it is also modulation source in the mod matrix.
XY Controls

Edit (While in Edit mode, you can move the path's points around and thus edit the XY Path manually).
Play Speed (The Play Speed control alters the playback speed of the recorded XY Path)
Modes: Poly, Free or Mono
Loop modes: off, loop or bidirectional loop
Sync To (Tempo sync the XY movement)
Points (from 2 points up to 128 points)
Space Quantize (Space Quantize restricts the points in the current path to a set of grid lines)
Time Quantize (Time Quantize sets the update frequency of the XY position)
Draw Osc (the XY screen also shows the current oscillator output if you like)
Commands (XY Menu with the many additional options like the preset path).

Filters Section
Two Analog-modeled Filters that can be combined in various path modes.

Serial and Parallel mode
Cutoff Frequency
Q (Resonance)
36 Filter Types included two Comb Filter types and Ring Modulation
Cutoff Frequency Modulation: Velocity (Vel), Key Track, Modulation Wheel, Envelope (Env)
Filter Envelope with Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release, and reverse control. (Graphic mode or dial mode option selectable in the Play mode section)

Amplifier Section
The final volume control in Vecto included an Envelope, Velocity, and Pan control

Volume control
Velocity (Vel > Vol)
Pan
Volume Envelope with Attack, Decay, Sustain, Fadem and Release.

Play Mode Section
Arranges how Vecto plays its engine and additional features and settings can be found in this section.

Play Modes: Poly (16voice), Poly MPE, Mono, Mono High, Mono Low, Legato, Legato High, Legato Low, and Arpeggiator
Portamento with Speed control, Rate or Time Mode, Held Rate or Held Time mode
Port Amount
Chord mode, with up to 8 notes with strumming and tempo-based mode for strumming
Pitch Bend Up / Down (The unit used is semi-tones)

Arpeggiator section
Vecto offers a classic style Arpeggiator.

The Arpeggiator has up to 16 steps. Per step you can set the following values:
Step On/Off
Vel
Steps (number of Steps 1-16)
Swing
Vel / Key (Responds to the velocity setting of the step or the keyboard input)
Host Sync
Latch

2x LFO Section
Vecto has 2 Free LFOs that generate modulation signals to be used as sources in a modulation path.

Waveform types: The available waveforms are Sine, Triangle, Saw Up, Saw Down, Square, and S&H (Random).
Speed control
Sync (Tempo Sync option)
Modes: Poly, Free, and Mono

Envelope Section
Vecto has 2 Free Envelopes that generate modulation signals to be used as sources in a modulation path.

2 Envelope with Attack, Decay, Sustain, Sustain-Fade and Release
Velocity to Time Control and Keyboard to Time Control
Option to temp sync.

Modulation Matrix Section
The 8-way modulation matrix allows you to dynamically alter Vectos parameters. using both internal modules such as envelopes and LFOs, and external MIDI Controllers such as Pitch Bend,
Aftertouch and other control messages are defined in the MIDI-standard.

FX 1 Section
Vecto has 2 FX units in serial mode. FX types in FX 1 are.

Chorus
Ensemble
Flanger
Phaser
Widener
Tremolo
Vibrato
Autopan

FX 2 Section
Vecto has 2 FX units in serial mode. FX types in FX 2 are.

Stereo Delay
Reverb

Bank Manager Section
There are four main sections: Presets, Find, Search Category, and Set Category. For each section, the Banks are visible on the right-hand side. While in the Preset screen in the Bank Manager you can mark any Preset with a Star if you like the Preset

Back Screen
A click on the Vecto logo will display the back panel. The back panel contains several global controls that affect all instances of Vecto

GUI size options are 100%, 133%, and 200%
Computer Keyboard Up / Down
External MIDI Control Capture Mode.
