The characteristic curve of a keyboard table can be constructed by either clicking
and moving an anchor point in the characteristic curve graphic or by adjusting the
individual Key and Level parameters. A total of four key positions are available
per keyboard table.
Key corresponds to the keyboard position of an anchor point of the characteristic
curve.
Level corresponds to the level of an anchor point of the characteristic curve.
Keyb. Table determines which of the four keyboard tables is shown in the display
and can be currently modified. The pitch can only be assigned to keyboard table 1
(via Keyb. Type in the oscillator). All 4 tables can be applied to the following
parameters:
OSC
-> control of PreAmp, basic volume of sample
Filter
-> control of CutOff, filter limit frequency
OutAmp
-> control of Volume, output volume of the splits
EG
-> control of envelope rates. The times are compressed or
expanded.
Other parameters and controls
In addition to typical synthesizer parameters, Ed!son offers global parameters and
management tools. Starting with the top row, directly under the menu bar:
Sample shows all of the samples contained in the instrument and permits the
exchange of samples. The button on the right next to the display opens and
closes the sample list.
Del. removes the currently selected sample from the soundset.
Alg. determines the edge steepness of the filter and the characteristics of the
sample loop. While one doesn't have anything to do with the other in the context
