VOLUME TRACKING
Valid for all Algorithms. Tracking allows you to
determine how the volume varies across the key-
board. Here you can enhance the presence of a
sound more or less across the keyboard in order
to simulate to a greater degree that which occurs
in reality. For example, an acoustic piano can
reach a higher sound level in the bass region,
while the higher notes are less intensive.
Segment (F6)
Using the SEGMENT option, you can divide the
Tracking curve into several different segments,
in order to obtain a more refined Tracking across
the keyboard.
1 segm The Tracking curve is essential, rep-
resenting a constant Volume offset
across the keyboard. The parameter
“Key” cannot be modified.
3 segm The Tracking curve consists of 3 seg-
ments which allow the construction
of a situation offering different varia-
tions across the keyboard.
6 segm The Tracking curve is divided into
many parts (maximum resolution); al-
lowing a more complex programming
of the Volume offsets across the key-
board.

3 display parameters, selected with the Up/Down
cursor buttons and modified with the Dial, define
the tracking:
Point Corresponds to one of the extreme
ends of a segment. Point 1 repre-
sents the lowest note of the key-
board. The highest note of the key-
board is represented by the last Point
(depending on the number of seg-
ments inserted).
Key Defines the note at the selected
Point. The extreme points (A#0, C8)
cannot be modified.
Level The value of this parameter is a
relative value which represents the
change in volume with respect to
the actual setting of the Volume
function.
A level of 0 corresponds to the
maximum setting of the Volume
function and all other values are
negative.
A value of –127 corresponds to 0
volume at the note defined by the
selected Point.
A straight line running from point 1
to point 2 corresponds to the lowest
possible resolution.
Assignable values: 0 … –127
