PRESET PROGRAMMING
A slightly more complex example could use non-linear segment
shapes or multiple segments in the loop. In the example below, the
function generator decays with a zig-zag pattern when the note is
released.
To access the Random parameter, turn the level value of a function
generator one unit past ∆ +127. The random (r) symbol appears in the
value field.
FUNC GEN F1S1
Level r-127
A random level allows the function generator to go to a random value
which does not exceed the random level specified. If a random level of
+48 were programmed, the level could go to any value between 0 and
+48. If a value of -48 were programmed, the level could go to any
value between 0 and -48. The random level parameter then, is a limit
on the degree of randomness and is useful for creating smooth, ran-
dom curves. Smooth random curves can be used synthesize natural
sounds by slightly changing the timbre of a sound in a non-consistent
manner. In the example below, the function generator will follow a
random course within the limits of ±48.
