Module: ANALOG PROCESSING 11 Function: VOICE ATTENUATION,
TUNING, and DELAY
This function varies the attenuation, tuning, and delay for the Current Voice.
1. Activate ANALOG PROCESSING 11. The display will say:
2. Select the desired parameter for adjustment with the cursor (left arrow/right arrow) buttons, then vary
the parameter as needed:
Attn: Use the data slider to attenuate the Voice up to 46 dB.
Tune: Use the data slider to tune the Voice pitch between +45 and -48 cents.
Delay: Use the data slider to vary the delay between the time a key is first pressed (or MIDI data
received at the MIDI input) to the onset of the note. The range is 0 to 63.
3. After making your selections, press ENTER to return to the Module Identifier.
Module: ANALOG PROCESSING 12 Function: VCA ENVELOPE
This function sets the attack, hold, decay, sustain, and release characteristics of the VCA’s
AHDSR envelope generator.
Application: Change a Voice’s dynamics with respect to time.
1. Activate ANALOG PROCESSING 12. The display will say:
...where XX is a two-digit numeral between 01 and 32.
Hint: Filter and VCA settings interact. For example, if the VCA is set for an extremely short decay
and sustain level is near 0, then you won’t hear the effects of setting a long filter decay.
2. Select the desired parameter for adjustment with the cursor buttons, then use the data slider to
change the parameter value. Fig. ANALOG-1 shows the effect and timing of the various envelope
parameters; refer to these as you read the following descriptions of the five parameters.
