[T! Joystick
■ For control of pitch bends, vibrato, filter modulation
{wah-wah), and other effects while playing.
■ Left-right movement (horizontal axis) can produce up
ward and downward pitch bends (of all notes played)
and can control the VCF cutoff frequency to change
the tone color. Upward movement produces vibrato,
by modulating the oscillator frequency. Downward
movement produces a cyclic wah-wah effect by
modulation of the VCF filter cutoff frequency.

■ The operation of these effects depends in part on the
program being used. Some parameters in a patch will

Initial Touch
■ The DSS-1 has programmable initial touch. This lets
you control things like volume, tone color, pitch
change, and attack, according to how fast or "hard"
you play the keys.
■ The effect produced depends on your patch
parameter values.
Ts] After Touch
■ The DSS-1 has programmable after touch. This is ac
cessed by pressing down on keys after playing them.
After touch can be programmed to control vibrato
depth, volume, brightness, and other aspects of the
sound.
■ The effect produced depends on your patch
parameter values.
