Opening an Orbiter
Orbiters are accessed through Audios.
An Orbiter can open embedded in the page or in a separate tab, depending on context.
Start with dimensions
Each Orbiter contains three dimensions.
Dimensions are different sound-transformation setups designed by the Orbiter creator.
The same X, Y, Z controls affect different processes in each dimension.
On desktop, dimensions can usually be switched using 1 / 2 / 3.
Transport and looping
Use the transport controls to:
- Play
- Pause
- Stop
Open the Playback panel to work with the waveform:
- Zoom in and out
- Seek to a position
- Set loop regions
Looping remains available across all panels.
Monitoring
Use the monitors to understand what is happening in real time:
- Engine monitor (active parameters)
- Audio information
- Entangled World context
- Orbiter identity
Jamming mode (XYZ)
Jamming mode is the primary interaction mode.
- X and Y are controlled by movement across the screen
- Z is controlled via zoom gestures or dedicated controls
You can also use the knobs directly.
Reset to equilibrium
- Double-click / double-tap a knob to reset one axis
- Double-click / double-tap the screen to reset X, Y, and Z together
Equilibrium usually represents a bypass or neutral state.
Cosmic LFO
Each axis (X, Y, Z) has an independent Cosmic LFO.
You can control:
- Depth (modulation amount)
- Waveform
- Frequency source
Some sources are manual, others depend on the Entangled World and its exoplanet data.
Global vs dimension-specific controls
Some controls are global across dimensions, such as:
- Transport
- Loop
- Volume
Most performance controls are dimension-specific and change when switching dimensions.
