Amp
Oscillators1and2haveseparatecontrolsforvolume(also
called“amplitude,”or“amp”forshort);pan;andaswellas
dedicatedampenvelopesandkeyboardtrackinggenera‐
tors.
Thesepagesletyoucontrolalloftheserelatedparameters.
Amongotherthings,youcan:
•Setthepanpositionandpanmodulation.
•Controlam
plevelandmodulation,includingkeyboard
tracking,theampenvelope,LFOmodulation,andAMS
control.
NotethatwhentheOscillatorModeissettoSingle,only
Oscillator1’sampandpanareactive;thepagesforOscilla‐
tor2willbegrayedout.
Amp1
ThispagecontrolsthebasicsettingsfortheAmpsection.
Here,youcan:
•Settheinitialvolumelevel.
•Controlthepanpositionandpanmodulation.
Level [000...127]
ThiscontrolsthebasicvolumelevelofOscillator1,before
keyboardtracking,velocity,andothermodulation.
MIDI and volume
YoucancontroltheProgram’soverallvolumeviaMIDI
usingbothVolume(CC#7)andExpression(CC#11).
Whenusedoneatatime,thetwocontrollersworkin
exactlythesameway:aMIDIvalueof127isequalto
theAmp“Level”setting,andlowervaluesreducethe
volume.
IfbothCC#7an
dCC#11areusedsimultaneously,the
onewiththelowervaluedeterminesthemaximumvol‐
ume,andtheonewiththehighervaluescalesdown
fromthatmaximum.
ThisiscontrolledontheglobalMIDIchannel(page72).
Pan [RND, L001...C064...R127]
ThiscontrolsthestereopanofOscillator1.AsettingofL001
placesthesoundatthefarleft,C064inthecenter,andR127
tothefarright.
WhenthisissettoRND(Random),thepanpositionwillbe
differentforeachnote‐on.
YoucanalsocontrolpanviaMIDIPa

placesthesoundatthelocationspecifiedbythePan
parameter,and127placesthesoundatthefarright.
ThisiscontrolledontheglobalMIDIchannel(page72).
Pan AMS Src (Pan AMS Source)[List of AMS Sources]
ThisselectsanAMSsourcetomodulatePan.Foralistof
AMSsources,pleasesee“A l t e r n a t e ModulationSource
(AMS)”onpage 121.
Pan AMS Int (Pan AMS Intensity) [–99...+99]
ThiscontrolsthedepthanddirectionoftheAMSmodula‐
tionforPan.
Forexample,if“Pan”issettoC064and“PanAMSSource”
issettoNoteNumber,positive(+)intensitieswillcausethe
