To understand the operation of this unit, it is important to
know that the Amplifier Envelope is always acting as a
modulation source for the volume. This means that an
audio signal can only pass through if the Amplifier
Envelope is triggered and opened.
w You can access the parameter for the amplifier
through the Amplifier Edit Menu only. It is located
between the Modifier Menu pages and the Effect
Menu pages.
Volume 0…127
Determines the master volume of the sound program.
Velocity -64…+63
Specifies how much volume will be affected by keyboard
velocity. Use this feature to give more expression to the
sound. With a setting of 0, velocity will have no effect on
the volume. Classic organs work in this way because they
do not have dynamic response. For positive settings, the
volume rises with higher velocities. This is the most
commonly used setting, which gives a piano-like
character. With negative settings, the volume decreases at
higher velocities. This gives an atypical character suitable
for effect sounds. As the Amplifier always works in
conjunction with the Amplifier Envelope, this parameter
actually determines the envelope velocity amount. The
following picture illustrates this functionality:
Mod Source see table Modulation
Sources
Selects the source of the volume modulation.
Mod Amount 0...127
Determines the amount of volume modulation.
