Flexible manipulation of instruments and sounds is one of the most outstanding features of Independence. Using the "Flexible Modifiers" you can connect any source to any destination.
You can use this feature to customize and manipulate your instruments as well as to simplify and automate your work.
One of the most outstanding features of the Flexible Modifiers is the possibility of any number of "multiple assignments": Using only one controller (e.g. your keyboard, MIDI controller or also host automation) and only one movement, you can change as many as desired parameters at the same time - e.g. volume, filter Cuttoff and panorama!!!
Independence supports even different controller ranges (min. and max. values) and individual envelope settings per parameter as well as opposite changes of value (invert). Of course you can also extend each single parameter of the multiply assigned Modifiers with further Modifiers individually at any time.

One of the many Independence features for fast and flexible adjustment and editing of single parts of a loaded instrument.
If you select only the snare drum out of a loaded drum kit layer and create a new "Custom Channel" (internal, virtual channels) with this Section, for example, you now can individually adjust and customize the character of the snare without manipulating the entire drum kit layer - changing the room, EQs or compression of the snare, for example.

In Independence you can assign an unlimited number of BUS sends (existing as well as new BUS sends) to each Layer, Alternate or Section. This feature offers a so far unachieved flexibility in the manipulation of single parts or even complete instruments. So you can adjust all your instruments to fit to each other in just a few seconds - without switching from Independence to your host application.

For the first time ever Independence offers a volume AHDSR curve which can be use absolute as well as relative!
If the "absolute" mode is activated, the global AHDSR settings of a layer get ignored and only the entered values for the Alternates and/or Sections apply. Working in the "relative" mode, the global AHDSR settings of the layer do not get ignored and the individual entried for Alternates and/or Sections get added to these values - individualisation for highest demands!

For any kind of manipulation of your instruments, Independence offers high quality 2,4 and 6-pole filter sections.

Beside the standard keyswitch between several Layers Independence also contains a "layer-internal" keyswitch. So you can switch not only between whole layers but also inside a layer between different playing styles, for example.
