Delay Time/Direction

Delay Time
Direction
The Delay Time parameter determines how long the voice will wait after a key
down is received before playing. Adjustable from 000 to 250, with each value
increasing the delay time by 4 milliseconds. A delay of up to 1 second is
possible.
Triggering a voice with a Key up — In the highest position, Delay
Time=KEYUP, the voice will wait until a key up is received before it plays.
This parameter determines the direction a wave will play, either Forward or
Backward.
Waves found within the TRANSWAVE, WAVEFORM and INHARMONIC
wave classes are based upon loops and therefore have a fixed direction. When
one of these waves is selected, this parameter will not appear on the screen.

Start Index
This controls where in the sample the wave will begin playing. When
START=00, the whole wave will play. As the start point is adjusted upwards it
will begin playing further into the wave. You can use this, for example, to skip
the attack and play only the loop portion of looped (sustaining) sounds.
Range: 00 to 99
Type-specific Wave Parameters
The parameters shown on the lower line of this screen will vary depending on the
current wave class. For each wave class, the lower line of the display will
contain parameters controlling the features which are specific to that category.
As mentioned earlier, changing the wave class resets these parameters. However,
if you scroll only one step away from the current class and then scroll back, any
lower-line settings you had will be restored. Go more than one class from the
current one and any lower-line settings will be lost.
