Extrnal This selects the MIDI controller set in the external control field in the GLOBAL
mode. This can be BREATH (cntl#2), FOOT (cntl#04) or VOLUME (cntl#07).
Using a MIDI merger on your keyboard would allow you to merge a breath
controller with your keyboard and users of the Akai EWI MIDI wind synthesiser
will no doubt be able to use this function to great effect when playing the
S2000 directly from the EWI and selecting BREATH.
Veloc This selects velocity as the controller.
Keybrd This selects keyboard position as the modulation control source.
Lfo1 This selects LFO1 as the modulation source. LFO1 may also be a modulation
destination and it is possible to modulate its rate, depth and delay.
Lfo2 No prizes for guessing that this selects LFO2 as the modulation source.
Env1 This selects the ADSR amplitude envelope, ENV1, as the modulation source.
Env2 This selects the multi-stage ENV2 as the controller.
! Modwl This selects the current position of the modwheel at the time of note-on as the
current controller. Moving it whilst the note is held will have no effect - it is only
its position at the point of note-on that has the effect.
! Bend As above, this selects the current position of the pitchbend wheel at note-on
as the controller.
! Extrnal This selects the current position of an external MIDI controller at the point of
note-on as the modulation source. The choices you have for external MIDI
control are breath (cntrl#2), footpedal (cntrl#4) and volume (cntrl#7). These
are selected in the MIDI mode.
All of these are available to be routed in any amount to virtually any source which include filter
cutoff, LFO1 rate, depth and delay, overall program amplitude and keygroup amplitude, pitch
and pan position. Modulation sources may be mixed at each ‘modules’ input to further expand
the possibilities available and each control input may be inverted for even more flexibility.
Each keygroup has these modulation facilities separately available allowing an enormous
amount of flexibility and this, combined with the all the other PROGRAM EDIT functions should
keep you happy for a long time!
