2. Bank M program structure
Program structure
Each program of bank M has the following structure.
Oscillator section
This is the section which creates the waveform that is the basis of the sound.
These settings are made by the “Program Edit P1” and “Program Edit P2” parameters.
• OSC 1, 2
Thirteen methods of sound production (i.e., thirteen oscillator types) are provided. Two of these oscillator
types can be used together, and settings made to specify the basic pitch, etc. However depending on the
oscillator type, only one oscillator may be available.
These settings are made by the “1-2: OSC Basic,” “1-3: OSC 1 Pitch,” “1-4: OSC 2 Pitch,” and “2-1: OSC”
parameters.
• Sub oscillator
This lets you use one of four types of basic waveform. Pitch-related settings can be made in the same way
as OSC 1 and 2.
These settings are made by the “1-5: Sub Pitch” and “2-2: Sub/Noise” parameters.
• Noise generator
This generates white noise. The noise can be sent through a multi-mode filter (low pass filter, high pass
filter, band pass filter).
These settings are made by the “2-2: Sub/Noise” parameters.
Mixer section
The output of oscillators 1 and 2, the sub oscillator, and the noise generator are mixed with the feedback from
the amp section, and output to multi-mode filters 1 and 2 (the filter section).
These settings are made by the “3-1: Mixer” parameters.
