VOLUME [0.00...10.00]
This controls the main output level. It affects all voices
at once, and so it cannot be modulated by per-voice
AMS sources such as EGs or LFOs 1 and 2.
For per-voice modulation, use the ATTENUATOR
parameter instead. For more information, see
“ATTENUATOR” on page 313.
4-1g: PITCH
BEND RANGE [0.00...12.00]
This sets the maximum amount of pitch bend up and
down, in semitones and cents, as controlled by JS X. To
use another AMS source for pitch bend, modulate the
TRANSPOSE or TUNE parameters instead.
BEND RANGE is not modulatable via AMS.
TRANSPOSE [-24.00…+24.00]
This controls the coarse tuning, in half-steps and cents,
up or down two octaves. You can modulate this
smoothly via AMS.
TUNE [–5.00...+5.00]
This adjusts the pitch of the oscillators, in steps of 1/5
of a cent, for a total range of +/- 1 semitone.
4-1h: EFFECTS
MODE [OFF, CHORUS, PHASE, ENSEMBLE]
Switches the effect mode. Choose from chorus, phase,
and ensemble.
SPREAD [0.00...10.00]
Adjusts the width to which the effect sound will be
panned.
SPEED/INTENSITY [0.00...10.00]
Adjusts the speed or intensity of the effect.
If MODE is set to Chorus or Phase, this adjusts the
speed. If Ensemble is selected, this adjusts the depth.
4-1i: Parameter Details
When you touch a knob or switch, a yellow square
appears around it, showing that it has been selected.
The Parameter Details area shows information for this
selected item, including its parameter group and
parameter name, its exact value, and its AMS
assignments.
Individual parameters and AMS
PITCH BEND RANGE is not modulatable via AMS.
The PAN knob and a number of switches are
modulatable by a single AMS source, as described
under “Pan knob and Switches,” below. The rest of the
continuous knobs on this page are modulatable via
two AMS sources, as detailed under “Knobs,” below.
(Parameter group)
This shows the group of the parameter (such as VCO).
(Parameter name) [range depends on parameter]
This shows the name and exact value of the parameter.
You can edit the parameter value with any of the
standard data-entry controls.

AMS [List of AMS Sources]
This selects a modulation source to control the selected
parameter. For a list of AMS sources, see “AMS
(Alternate Modulation Source) List” on page 967.
Intensity [range depends on parameter]
This controls the depth and direction of the AMS
modulation. For unipolar parameters, the range is the
same as that of the selected parameter, in both positive
and negative directions. For instance, if the parameter
range is 0.00…10.00, the Intensity range will be -
10.00…+10.00.
For bipolar parameters, including FILTER EG
INTENSITY, VCA ATTENUATOR, TRANSPOSE,
and TUNE, the range is twice that of the original
parameter. For instance, if the original parameter range
is –24.00…+24.00, the Intensity range will be double
that: –48.00…+48.00. This allows full modulation of the
parameter, regardless of the initial setting.
In some cases, you can use this to modulate the
parameter outside of its original range, for a wider
range of values.
Int Mod [List of AMS Sources]
You can modulate the main AMS Intensity from
another AMS source. This selects that source. For a list
of AMS sources, see “AMS (Alternate Modulation
Source) List” on page 967.
Intensity [range depends on parameter]
This controls the depth and direction of the Intensity
Mod. The result is summed with the main AMS
Intensity to produce the final modulation amount.
Pan knob and Switches
The PAN knob and the OCTAVE, WAVEFORM, SUB
OSC, VCA MODE, MG MODE, and EFFECTS
MODE switches can each be modulated from a single
AMS source.
TEMPO SYNC, KEY SYNC, and BASE NOTE are not
modulatable.
AMS [List of AMS Sources]
This selects a modulation source to control the selected
parameter. For a list of AMS sources, see “AMS

Intensity [range depends on parameter]
This controls the depth and direction of the AMS
modulation. The range is the same as the selected
parameter, in both positive and negative directions.
