Sampler functions
The
"key >DEC&REL" parameter (+50 to -50) allows you to control the amount by which
the key position affects the decay and release rates. Setting this to a negative value means
that the higher the note played on the keyboard, the shorter the decay and release times
(similar to most acoustic instruments). Setting this to a positive number will reverse this
effect.
The final parameter on this page,
"attack hold" can be set to ON or OFF. When ON,
the attack portion of the envelope will be held until looping begins, and when OFF, the
envelope will continue along the set values, regardless of loop settings.
ENV2
The second ADSR. envelope is used primarily, but not exclusively, for altering the cutoff
frequency of the low-pass filter dynamically. It can also be used for altering the pitch of
the sound (set in the FILTER, page, above). All the parameters here are identical to the
ones set in the ENVl page, with the exception of the last:
"vel.>env.out"
This parameter (+50 to -50) determines the absolute amplitude of the envelope relative to
the velocity of the key. When this is set to a positive value, a higher key velocity will
produce a higher attack level, etc (the rate will be unaffected). Setting this to a negative
value will have the reverse effect.
Choosing the samples for a keygroup
The last three pages,
SMP1, SMP2 and SMP3 all refer to the samples which will be included in
a keygroup. The last page,
SMP3, is only accessible from the second sample page.
