LPF K.Flw (Low Pass Filter KeyFollow)

Sets the KeyFollow for the Low Pass Filter cutoff
frequency. The Low Pass Filter KeyFollow function
controls the cutoff frequency in accordance with the
notes played on the keyboard. When set to a positive
value, the higher the note played on the keyboard,
the higher the cutoff frequency becomes. When a
negative value is set, the lower the note played, the
higher the cutoff frequency becomes. When set to
“+32,” the KeyFollow functions at 100% and the
cutoff frequency changes in proportion to the pitch.

Settings: –32~0~+64

EG Mode (Envelope Generator Mode)

Sets the EG mode (the way in which the EG
functions). There are two types of modes.

Settings:

decay: The EG effect decays.

attack: The EG effect increases.

EG Time (Envelope Generator Time)

Sets the amount of time from when the note is
played to when the EG terminates.

Settings: 0~127

EG Time Kflw(Envelope Generator Time

KeyFollow)

Sets the KeyFollow EG time. This KeyFollow
function controls the change in the length of the EG
time in accordance with the notes played on the
keyboard. When set to a positive value, the higher
the note played on the keyboard, the shorter the EG
time becomes. When a negative value is set, the
lower the note played, the shorter the EG time
becomes.

Settings: –64~0~+63

Wet Level

Sets the output level for the signal that is affected by
the Self FM. You can adjust the FDSP (Self FM)
balance by combining this parameter and the Dry
Level below.

Settings: –64~0~+63

Wet Vel (Wet Level Velocity)

Sets the velocity sensitivity for the Wet Level. This
lets you control the output level of the modulated
signal by the strength at which you play the
keyboard.

Settings: –64~0~+63

Dry Level

Sets the output level for the original input signal.

Settings: –64~0~+63

Dry Vel (Dry Level Velocity)

Sets the velocity sensitivity for the Dry Level. This
lets you control the output level of the original input
signal by the strength at which you play the
keyboard.

Settings: –64~0~+63

Pan

The same as the one in the EP Pickup. See page 126
for information.

08: Tornado

Tornado is a kind of FM synthesis operator with the
carrier frequency “0,” using input signal as a
modulator. The input signal is modified by the LPF and
the special limiter, to form an appropriate modulator
waveform, and the modulator waveform looks up the
sine wave. The greater the modulation intensity, the
greater the change of the phase to be looked up
becomes, to emphasize the higher frequency range. As
the modulation intensity decreases so does the
harmonic content. The feedback for the FM (“Edge
Bias” parameter, below) is available to get sounds with
both true sine wave and rich harmonic contents of the
saw-tooth wave.

The underlined items in the diagram are available as the
Destination parameters for the FDSP Controller set (page
141).

Pre Gain

Sets the gain for amplifying the input signal that is
used for modulation.

Settings: 0~120

Pre LPF (Low Pass Filter)

Sets the cutoff frequency which cuts the higher
range of the input signals for modulation.

Settings: 0~127
