CHAPTER 21. LIVE INSTRUMENT REFERENCE 278
Osc Output Level (Level) This sets the output level of the oscillator. If this oscillator is
modulating another, its level has signicant inuence on the resulting timbre. Higher levels
usually create bright and/or noisy sounds.
Osc Waveform (Wave) Choose from a collection of carefully selected waveforms, including
slight derivations of sine waves that are especially useful for creating emulations of vintage
digital hardware synthesizers.
Osc Phase (Phase) This sets the initial phase of the oscillator. The range represents one
whole cycle.
Osc Frequency<Velocity (Osc<Vel) The frequency of an oscillator can be modulated by
note velocity. Positive values raise the oscillator's pitch with greater velocities, and negative
values lower it.
Osc Freq<Vel Quantized (Q) This allows quantizing the effect of the Frequency<Velocity
parameter. If activated, the sonic result is the same as manually changing the Coarse
parameter for each note.
Volume Envelope Rates<Velocity (Time<Vel) This parameter exists for lter, pitch, LFO and
volume envelopes. It is therefore listed in the section on envelopes.
Osc Output Level<Velocity (Vel) This denes how much the oscillator's level depends upon
note velocity. Applying this to modulating oscillators creates velocity-dependent timbres.
Osc Output Level<Key (Key) This denes how much the oscillator's level depends upon
note pitch. The center point for this function is C3.
Osc D Feedback (Feedback) Osc D can modulate itself. The modulation is dependent not
only on the setting of the feedback control but also on the oscillator level and the envelope.
Higher feedback creates a more complex resulting waveform.
Envelope Display
Envelope Attack Time (Attack) This sets the time it takes for a note to reach the peak level,
starting from the initial level. The shape of this segment of the envelope is linear.
Envelope Decay Time (Decay) This sets the time it takes for a note to reach the sustain
level from the peak level. The shape of this segment of the envelope is exponential.
