Vintage B3 Percussion controls in Logic Pro for iPad

Vintage B3 emulates the (Key) Percussion features of the original B3. The Percussion function is available only for the upper manual. The effect adds the second or third harmonics to the attack envelope of a note. These harmonics quickly fade out, leaving the chosen drawbar tones.

The Percussion effect is polyphonic, but is only (re)triggered after all keys have been released. If you release all keys, new notes or chords sound with percussion. If you play legato, or sustain other notes on the upper manual, no percussion is heard.

Tap the Main button at the top of the plug-in to view and adjust the Vintage B3 Percussion parameters.

Important: Percussion controls are spread across two interface sections: Percussion and Percussion Options.
