Press KEY 0 (ensure the function switch is in SHIFT mode) and
the display will show u A alternating with a numeric value.
Adjust the PORTA/DATA knob. At a setting of zero a soft key
stroke will produce a sound at the same volume as a hard key
stroke. At a maximum positive value (63) soft key strokes will
be much quieter than hard key strokes. At a maximum negative
value (.64) soft key strokes will be much louder than hard key
strokes.
Setting up a sound to make its brightness or pitch respond
to velocity
Repeatedly press KEY 0 (ensure the function switch is in
SHIFT mode) until the display shows u E alternating with a
numeric value. Adjust the PORTA/DATA knob.Turn the FILTER
FREQUENCY knob to a near zero setting or until the sound
almost disappears. Turn the MOD ENV DEPTH knob in the
Filter section to maximum clockwise.
In the Envelopes section, Set the MOD ENV ATTACK and SUS-
TAIN knob to zero and the DECAY knob to nearly full. While
playing notes on a MIDI Keyboard, Adjust the PORTA/DATA
knob. At a setting of zero there will no effect on the brightness
of the sound.
At maximum positive value (63) soft key strokes will produce a
tone much softer than hard key strokes. At a maximum nega-
tive value (.64) soft key strokes will produce a tone much
brighter than than hard key strokes.To affect the pitch, adjust
the MOD ENV knob in the Oscillator section.
Select a factory preset FM sound (such as 209) Repeatedly
press KEY 0 (ensure the function switch is in SHIFT mode) until
the display shows u F alternating with a numeric value. Adjust
the PORTA/DATA knob. Notice how the FM effect at the start of
the sound becomes dependent on how hard the keys are
struck.
Voice Mode
Interpretation of new MIDI notes received is set using the Voice
Mode option in the Triggering menu.
Mono Mode - n A For emulating sounds that are naturally
monophonic, Mono mode is available. In this mode only one
voice is used. When a new note is received, the current voice is
truncated and re-run with the new pitch information.
Autoglide - A G A special mode where, only one voice is used
but there must be a gap in between notes played in order for
both Envelopes to re-trigger. Overlapping notes will not trigger
either Envelope. If Portamento is applied to the sound, it will
only be active when notes are overlapped. This mode allows
TB303* type sounds to be easily programmed.
Poly 1 Mode - P1 A new voice is allocated to every new note
received even if a voice is already active at the same pitch.
This is the standard polyphonic mode and is how most modern
synthesizers allocate voices.
Poly 2 Mode - P 2 When a new note is received, any active
voices at the same pitch will be soft triggered (re-used). This is
how many vintage 6 or 8 voice analogue synthesizers allocated
voices.
