1-2 Synthesis Parameters
1-2-1 Oscillator
An Oscillator is one unit of the tone generator block of the Electronic Musical Instrument to
control the waveform and Operators.
Key On Delay Tempo
Sync
Determines if the Key On Delay (the time delay between when a key is
pressed and the corresponding sound is actually played) is synchronized
to the tempo of the Arpeggio or phrase.
Key On Delay Note
Length
Determines the timing of the Key On Delay when the Delay Tempo Sync
is set to On.
On the other hand, there is another parameter called “Key On Delay
Length.” The parameter determines the timing of the Key On Delay when
the Delay Tempo Sync is set to Off.
Velocity Limit Determines the minimum and maximum Velocity values within which an
Element responds.
Each Element will only sound for notes played between its specified
Velocity Limits.
For example, this lets you have one Element sound when you play softly
and have a different one sound when you play strongly.
If you first specify the maximum value and then the minimum value, for
example “93 to 34,” then the Velocity range covers both “1 to 34” and
“93 to 127,” with a Velocity “hole” between 34 and 93.
Velocity Cross Fade Determines how gradually the volume of an Element decreases in
proportion to the distance of Velocity changes outside the Velocity Limit
setting.
The higher the value, the more gradually the volume decreases.
0: No sound outside the Velocity Limit (see “Velocity Limit”) is
produced.
Note Limit Determines the lowest and highest notes of the keyboard range for an
Element.
The selected Element will sound only when you play notes within this
range.
If you first specify the highest note and then the lowest note, for example
“C5 to C4,” then the note range covers bothC-2 to C4” and “C5 to G8,”
with no sound for the Element between C4 and C5.
Element Switch Switches a selected Element On or Off.
Elements for which the Element Switch is switched off will not sound.
Bank Indicates the Waveform Bank of an Element or Drum Key (Drum Part).
Waveform Category and
Number
Indicates a waveform category and a waveform number of an Element or
Drum Key. The waveform is specified by selecting with the Category
search function or by directly entering the number.
