PROGRAMMING CONVENTIONS
There are a number of Programming conventions which we have tried to follow within all SQ-80 and
ESQ factory Programs whenever possible. They will help you to know where to begin when editing
factory Programs. You may also find them to be handy rules of thumb to follow when creating your own
Programs.
LFO's
− > LFO 1 is used for Wheel Vibrato, when it is part of the
Program.
> LFO 2 and LFO 3 are available for other purposes.
Envelopes
> ENV 1 is used for Pitch Envelopes (modulating OSC 1, 2 or 3).
___ > ENV 2 is used for individual volume Envelopes (modulating DCA 1, 2 or 3).
> ENV 3 is used for Filter Envelopes (modulating the Filter Cutoff Frequency).
− ENV 4 is always fixed as the overall volume Envelope (DCA 4).
Of course these do not all apply for every Program. Any Envelope can be routed anywhere you want
it to go (except to
DCA 4), and some Programs will call for different applications. But where applicable,
the factory Programs follow these conventions.
Program Names
− (/) Where a Program is Layered, a slash (/) is incorporated into the Name.
− > (+) Where a Program contains a Split, a plus sign (+) is incorporated into the Name.
