AMP (Amplifier)
These are the volume-related parameters.
A: Level LEVEL .......................................[000...127]
Adjust the volume of the timbre.
If the “Mode” is Split/Dual, this setting will adjust the vol-
ume balance between timbre 1 and timbre 2.
B: Panpot PAN ............................. [L63...CNT...R63]
Adjust the sounds (stereo location).
C: Amp Sw EG 2/GATE ........................ [EG 2, Gate]
Select the envelope source that will produce time-variant
change in the volume.
EG 2
If you select EG2 ([EG 2/GATE] key LED is off), the vol-
ume will change according to the envelope specified for
EG2.
Gate
If you select Gate ([EG 2/GATE] key LED is lit), the vol-
ume will remain constant.
D: Distortion DISTORTION ....................... [ON, OFF]
If this is ON, distortion will be applied to the output of the
timbre.
The depth of distortion can be adjusted by the output level
of each oscillator in Page 07: Mixer.
E: Vel Sense................................................[–63...+63]
This specifies how velocity (keyboard playing dynamics)
will affect the volume.
With positive (+) settings, the volume will increase as you
play the keyboard harder.
With negative (–) settings, the volume will decrease as you
play the keyboard harder.
F: KBD Track............................................... [–63...+63]
Specify how keyboard tracking will affect the volume.
With positive (+) settings, the volume will increase as you
play above the C4 note on the keyboard, and will decrease as
you play below C4.
With negative (–) settings, the volume will decrease as you
play above the C4 note on the keyboard, and will increase as
you play below C4.
With a setting of 0, keyboard tracking will not affect the vol-
ume.
Keyboard Track operates according to the pitch that is
controlled by pitch bend, transpose, and Mod Sequence.
It is not affected by pitch changes produced by vibrato
or Virtual Patch.
EG (Envelope Generator)
These are the parameters for the EG (Envelope Generator),
which creates time-varying changes in the sound.
EG1 is internally connected as the envelope source for FIL-
TER “Cutoff.”
EG2 is internally connected as the envelope source for AMP
“Level.”
A: Attack ATTACK ..................................[000...127]
Specify the time from note-on (when the key is pressed) until
the attack level (maximum value of the envelope) is reached.
B: Decay DECAY ....................................[000...127]
Specify the time from when the attack level is reached until
the sustain level (Sustain) is reached.
C: Sustain SUSTAIN ...............................[000...127]
Specify the sustain level.
D: Release RELEASE ...................................[0...127]
Specify the time from note-off (when the key is released)
until the level reaches 0.
