0 - CHANGE CURRENT VOICE
This function lets you change the Current Voice assignment.
1. To specify the Current Voice, with the module active key in 0.
2.
The display’s top line lists which Voices make up the current Voice. If more than five
Voices have been assigned, the display shows the first five assigned Voices and a +
symbol. The bottom line invites you to Play a Key.
3.
Follow the Voice assignment process described in GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 2.
1 - ADSR SETTINGS
This function sets the attack, decay, sustain, and release characteristics of the VCA’s
ADSR envelope generator.
Application:
Change a Voice’s dynamics with respect to time.
1. With the module active, Current Voice assigned (see GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 2),
and the ENTER LED either lit steadily or off, key in 1. The display says:
Atk Dec Sus Rel
XX XX XX XX
...where X is a numeral.
Hint:
Filter and VCA settings interact. For example, if the VCA is set for an extremely
short decay, then you won’t hear the effects of setting a long filter decay.
Atk,
controlled by Slider A, varies the VCA envelope attack time from 01 to 32 (higher
values increase the attack time).
Dec,
controlled by Slider B, varies the VCA envelope initial decay time from 01 to 32
(higher values increase the initial decay time). 32 gives “infinite decay” (envelope stays
at maximum amplitude for as long as you hold down keys).
Sus,
controlled by Slider C, varies the VCA envelope sustain level from 01 to 32 (higher
values give higher sustain levels).
Rel,
controlled by Slider D, varies the VCA envelope release time from 01 to 32 (higher
values increase the release time). A setting of 32 inhibits the release phase of the
envelope, thus keeping the VCA open at the previously selected Sustain level.
Note:
If the filter and VCA release are both at 32 (also see FILTER 3), a key will sustain
at the sustain level even after you take your fingers off the keys. This is like the HOLD
