MODULATION - To specify the Modulation param-
eters for each element, from within the Parameter
function, press [F8] ( Mod ).
AMPLITUDE MODULATION DEPTH (-99 ~ +99)
- Position the cursor over the AMD value field and
use the JOG, INC/DEC or the KEYPAD to determine
how greatly the LFO will affect the output level
(amplitude) of the element.
FILTER MODULATION DEPTH (-99 ~ +99) -
Position the cursor over the FMD value field and
use the JOG, INC/DEC or the KEYPAD to determine
how greatly the LFO will affect the cutoff frequency
of the filter.
PITCH MODULATION DEPTH (-99 ~ +99) -
Position the cursor over the PMD value field and
use the JOG, INC/DEC or the KEYPAD to determine
how greatly the LFO will affect the pitch of the
element.
TEMPLATE TYPE (00 ~ 33) - (See Parameter,
above.)
LFO
The LFO parameters function lets you perform operations
which determine how the Low Frequency Oscillator controls
the voice.
The LFO creates a cyclically changing control signal that
can be used to create amplitude modulation (tremolo), pitch
modulation (vibrato), and filter modulation (wah-wah). The
W5/W7 s LFO can produce various
types
, or shapes, of modula-
tion waves, including triangle, square, sine, and assorted
sawtooth waves and others, plus sample & hold, which
produces a control signal whose level will change randomly at
intervals of time which you can determine by speed.
ACCESSING LFO PARAMETERS
To access the LFO parameters function, from within Voice
Edit Mode, press [F7] ( LFO ) or TRACK [15].
PARAMETER - To specify the Parameter settings for each
element, from within the Parameter function, press [F7]
( Param ).
SPEED (-99 ~ +99) - Position the cursor over the
Speed value field and use the JOG, INC/DEC or the
KEYPAD to set the speed of the LFO modulation.
Higher settings result in faster modulation, and lower
settings result in slower modulation.
DELAY (-99 ~ +99) - Position the cursor over the
Delay value field and use the JOG, INC/DEC or the
KEYPAD to set the time delay before the LFO modula-
tion begins.
TEMPLATE TYPE (00 ~ 33) - Position the cursor over
the Type number field and use the JOG, INC/DEC or
the KEYPAD to select the type, or shape of the LFO
modulation wave
template
. A setting of 00 is the
default shape for the preset voice. (To see a list of the
various LFO template types, refer to the
W5/W7
Technical Information
booklet, provided separately.)
NOTE: The template type determines the maximum and
minimum range. Therefore, an offset which exceeds the range
of the template type will have no effect.
