TVF VELOCITY
These parameters determine how keyboard velocity will
affect TVF Envelope/Cutoff Frequency/Resonance.
V-Sens (TVF Envelope Velocity Sensitivity)
Use this parameter when you want velocity to affect the TVF
Envelope. Higher settings will result in a greater difference
between strongly and softly played notes. Negative (-)
settings will invert the effect.
V-Curve (TVF Envelope Velocity Curve)
Select one of 7 types of curve with which velocity will affect
the Cutoff Frequency. The curve is displayed graphically at
the right of the value.
V-Resonance (Resonance Velocity Sensitivity)
Use this parameter when you want velocity to affect the
Resonance. Higher settings will result in a greater difference
between strongly and softly played notes. Negative (-)
settings will invert the effect.
TVF TIME ENV (TVF Time Envelope)
These parameters determine how keyboard velocity will
affect the times of the TVF envelope.
V-T1 (TVF Envelope Time 1 Velocity Sensitivity)
Use this parameter when you want velocity to affect T1
(time) of the TVF envelope. Higher settings will result in a
greater difference between strongly and softly played notes.
If you want higher keyboard velocities to speed up the T1
time, use positive (+) settings. To slow down the T1 time, use
negative (-) settings.
V-T4 (TVF Envelope Time 4 Velocity Sensitivity)
Use this parameter when you want Key Off Velocity (the
speed at which you release a key) to affect T4 (time) of the
TVF envelope. Higher settings will result in a greater
difference between quickly and slowly released notes. If you
want a quicker release to speed up the T4 time, use positive
(+) settings. To slow down the T4 time, use negative (-)
settings.
Time Keyfollow (TVF Envelope Time Key Follow)
Use this parameter when you want keyboard position to
affect the times (T2T4) of the TVF envelope. Higher settings
will result in greater changes relative to middle C (C4).
Positive (+) settings will result in shorter times as you play
toward the right of the keyboard. Negative (-) settings will
conversely result in longer times.
TVF ENVELOPE
These parameters set the TVF envelope (the way in which the
cutoff frequency will change over time).
fig.3-44.e
T1T4 (TVF Envelope Time 14)
Set the times over which the cutoff frequency will move from
one point to the next.
L1L4 (TVF Envelope Level 14)
Set the cutoff frequency levels for each point, relative to the
basic
cutoff frequency.
Changing the Sounds Volume
and Stereo Location (TVA)
The TVA (Time Variant Amplifier) controls volume changes
and stereo location.
TVA
Level
Adjust the basic volume of the Tone. Use this parameter to
adjust the volume balance between Tones.
Pan
Adjust the pan (stereo location) of the Tone. L64 is full left, 0
is center, and 63R is full right.
V-Sens (TVA Envelope Velocity Sensitivity)
Use this parameter when you want keyboard velocity to
affect the amount of change produced by the TVA envelope.
Higher settings will result in a greater difference between
strongly and softly played notes. Negative (-) settings will
invert the effect.
V-Curve (TVA Envelope Velocity Curve)
Select one of 7 curves that will determine how keyboard
playing dynamics will affect the TVA envelope. The selected
curve will be displayed at the right of the numerical value.
