LOUDNESS MODULATION
The next two pages allow you to modulate the overall loudness of the program. This is our first
encounter of the ASSIGNABLE PROGRAM MODULATION facilities:
There are two lassignable oudness modulation inputs and each one has a default controller
selected. If you wish, these need not be changed - it is only in more specialised applications
that you may wish to set something other than these defaults. The defaults are:
OUT MOD1 - KEYBRD sets how much keyboard position will affect the overall loudness of the
program. When set to positive value, the sound will be louder in the upper reaches of the
keyboard and setting it to a negative value, the sound will be louder on lower notes. You may
use this function to balance the program level across the keyboard. You may select another
controller using F1 to place the cursor on the controller name field and use the DATA wheel to
select another controller for this input.
OUT MOD2 - PRESS sets how much pressure (or aftertouch) will affect loudness after a note
has been played. Positive values will cause the sound to get louder as you press harder on the
keyboard and negative values will, of course, have the opposite effect. You may use this
function for expressive phrasing of such instruments as strings, vocal, wind and other such
instruments to great effect. You may select another controller using F1 to place the cursor on
the controller name field and use the DATA wheel to select another controller for this input.
By layering two programs in MULTI mode (or giving two programs the same program number
and playing them as a single program in SINGLE mode) and setting opposite values (i.e. +50
on one program and -50 on the other) in the OUT MOD2 page, you may use this function to
crossfade between them using aftertouch. As an example, you could layer a distorted guitar
program and a distorted feedback program and introduce the feedback element of the sound
using aftertouch or modwheel to create a powerful heavy metal guitar sound.
