■ Parameters
● FILTER (FREQ. and RESONANCE)
These settings determine the overall timbre of the sound by boosting or cutting a certain fre-
quency range. In addition to making the sound either brighter or more mellow, Filter can be
used to produce electronic, synthesizer-like effects.
• FREQ. ............ Determines the cutoff frequency or effective frequency range of the filter.
(See diagram below.)
Higher values result in a brighter sound.
• RESONANCE . Determines the emphasis given to the cutoff frequency, set in Cutoff
above. (See diagram below.) Higher values result in a more pronounced
effect.
● EG
The EG (Envelope Generator) settings determine how the level of the sound changes in time.
This lets you reproduce many sound characteristics of natural acoustic instruments — such
as the quick attack and decay of percussion sounds, or the long release of a sustained piano
tone.
• ATTACK........... Determines how quickly the sound reaches its maximum level after
the key is played. The higher the value, the quicker the attack.
• DECAY ............ Determines how quickly the sound reaches its sustain level (a
slightly lower level than maximum). The higher the value, the quicker
the decay.
• RELEASE ....... Determines how quickly the sound decays to silence after the key is
released. The higher the value, the shorter the release.
● VIBRATO
• DEPTH............ Determines the intensity of the Vibrato effect (see diagram).
Higher settings result in a more pronounced Vibrato.
• SPEED............ Determines the speed of the Vibrato effect (see diagram).
• DELAY ............ Determines the amount of time that elapses between the playing
of a key and the start of the Vibrato effect (see diagram). Higher
settings increase the delay of the Vibrato onset.
FILTER Determines the timbre of the voice. See below for details.
EG The EG (Envelope Generator) parameters affect the volume envelope of
the voice.
See below for details.
VIBRATO Sets up the vibrato effect. See below for details.
VOLUME Determines the volume of the voice.
