The Equal Power check-box makes the Vector create a
smooth fade between the two Oscillators, while the OSC1/2
Center Volume parameters allow you to create more
complex fade shapes.
In COMBINATION mode, you can use this to control the
relative volumes of up to 16 Programs at once, using both
the X and Y axes. For more details, see the X-Y Control
section of COMBINATION mode.
Enable Volume Control [Off, On]
When this box is checked, the X-Y position will control the
volumes of Oscillators 1 and 2.
When this box is not checked, the X-Y position will not
directly affect volume. However, it’s still possible for the
Vector to control volume via X-Y CCs and AMS.
Note: “X-Y Volume Control” cannot be used to control the
volume of the drum track.
Equal Power [Off, On]
This applies only when Enable Volume Control is turned
On.
When Equal Power is On, the Vector will fade between
Oscillators 1 and 2 using an equal-power volume curve. This
provides a smooth fade between the two sounds, and is the
type of volume control used by classic vector synths.
Also, when this is checked, the OSC 1 and OSC 2 Center
Vol ume parameters will be grayed out, since Equal Power
sets the center volumes automatically.
When Equal Power is Off, the OSC 1 and OSC 2 Center
Vol ume parameters determine the way in which X-Y
position affects volume.
OSC1 Center Volume [0, 25, 50, 75, 100%]
This sets the volume of Oscillator 1 at the center of the X
axis. It applies only when Equal Power, above, is set to Off.
The volumes at the extreme ends of the X axis are fixed. At
the left side, Osc 1 is always at 100% volume; at the right
side, Osc 1 is always at 0%.
OSC2 Center Volume [0, 25, 50, 75, 100%]
This sets the volume of Oscillator 2 at the center of the X
axis.
The volumes at the extreme ends of the X axis are fixed, in
the opposite direction of Oscillator 1’s. At the left side, Osc
2 is always at 0% volume; at the right side, Osc 2 is always
at 100%.

1–5b: X-Y CC Control
X-Y CC Control lets you use the combination of the X-Y
Control and the X-Y Envelope as AMS sources, for
modulating Program parameters, and as DMod sources, for
modulating Effects.
