For example, if you put bass in the lower part of the
keyboard and put organ in the upper half, then you
may want to use the VGA EG to provide an attenuat
ing envelope for the bass. This will cause the organ to
be attenuated as well, so it won't sound very organ
like.
Therefore, if you will be depending on the VGA for
your envelopes, then you should not incorporate
sounds having completely different envelopes in the
same multisound.
■ Note that if the OSC-2 multisound goes higher on the
keyboard (if its sounds are assigned to higher keys)
than that of OSC-1, then no sound will be produced
by the keys that exceed the upper limit of the OSC-1
multisound sound assignments.
In other words, it is the sound assignment range of
oscillator-1 that determines the total range of the
keyboard. (The same holds if you change the OSC-1
or OSC-2 octave or the O SC-2 interval.) (Refer to
functions F11 and Ft 5 for octave and interval
details.)
• Example: Here we have a looped multisound with
bass in the lower half and organ in the upper half of
the keyboard.
Prior to application '
of the VGA, you have
these completely
different waveform
envelopes.

left half of the
keyboard, then you
i also attenuate the
organ in the right
half of the keyboard.
• OSC-1 is using a multisound that has sound
assignments up to C6. The O SC-2 multisound has
sounds assigned up to C7. (The octave is 8’ for both
oscillators: oscillator-2 interval is 00.)
