This short walkthrough covers the global controls at the bottom of Tree Tone, Ableton's resonator-based device from the Inspired by Nature Pack. Decay sets how long the resonators ring out, with higher values producing longer, more sustained tones. Panning and Gain adjust the stereo spread and overall volume across all resonators at once.
The Lock parameter determines whether Tree Tone keeps running independently of Live's Transport. With Lock on, the device stops when playback stops. Turn it off and it runs continuously, regardless of what the Transport is doing.
