2:1 OSC 1 (09: Electric Piano Model)
09: Electric Piano Model
This oscillator simulates an electric piano.
There are four groups of parameters: Hammer (which specifies how the shape and motion of the
hammer will affect tonal change and attack noise), Tone Generator (which vibrates in response to
being struck by the hammer), Pickup (which specifies the tonal change that occurs when the vibration
of the tone generator is converted into an electrical signal), and Low EQ (which is a shelving-type
low EQ to adjust the low range).
21a: Hammer
Force [099]
Specifies the “Strength” with which the hammer strikes the tone generator. Higher settings will produce a
brighter sound.
Force Velocity Curve [OFF, 099]
Specifies how changes in velocity will affect “Force.” As this value is increased, velocity will have a greater
effect on “Force,” allowing more dynamic tonal change to be produced. With a setting of OFF, the “Force” will
be constant.
Width (Hammer Width) [099]
Simulates the shape of the hammer. As this value is increased, the width of the hammer will become narrower,
and the sound of the tone generator and hammer noise will become sharper.
Click Noise Level [099]
Specifies the volume of the hammer noise that occurs at the attack.
