SECTION 13
CREATING USER WAVEFORMS
This section explains how to create and store user waveforms. Familiarity with
the VS's operation in Program Edit mode is assumed.
INTRODUCTION
There are two levels of sound editing on the Prophet VS. The rst — Program
Edit mode— deals with mixing, ltering and modulating the oscillators
and other performance controls. In this mode, the joystick and other mixer
controllers adjust the real-time mixture of the four oscillators. For performance,
any group of parameter settings is easily recalled simply by selecting a
program.
At the second level —Edit Waveform mode— the only program elements
altered are the waveshapes available to the oscillators. When the VS enters
Edit Waveform mode, the current program is put aside temporarily, and a new
set of editing rules apply. In this mode, the joystick adjusts the static mix of
up to four waveforms, to produce a new waveform. When the VS exits Edit
Waveform mode, the current program returns.
The process of creating user waveforms is typically as follows:
1. Enter Edit Waveform mode.
2. Select the desired four waveforms.
3. Set each oscillator to a harmonic pitch.
4. Adjust the waveform blend with the joystick.
5. Store the new waveform in RAM.
