4–3: PCM OSC Pitch
This section controls the pitch modulation for the PCM
oscillator.
Important: when using the PCM Oscillator as an excitation
for the string, the “pitch” of the PCM will affect the timbre
of the string, and not the pitch of the overall sound.
On the other hand, when the string is used as a resonator or
comb filter (by setting the string’s
Decay and Damping to
moderate values), the PCM Oscillator will control the overall
pitch of the sound.
4–3a: Main
Octave [–2[32’], –1[16’], +0[8’], +1[4’]]
This sets the basic pitch of the PCM Oscillator, in octaves.
The default is +0[8'].
Transpose [–12…+12]
This adjusts the pitch in semitones, over a range of ±1
octave.
Tune [–1200…+1200]
This adjusts the pitch in cents, over a range of ±1 octave. A
cent is 1/100 of a semitone.
Frequency Offset [–10.0Hz … +10.0Hz]
This adjusts the pitch by increments of 0.1 Hz. Frequency
Offset is different from Tune in that, when used to detune
the two oscillators, it can create a constant beat frequency
across the range of the keyboard.
Pitch Slope [-1.00…+0.00…+2.00]
Normally, this should be set to the default of +1.00 .
Positive (+) values cause the pitch to rise as you play higher
on the keyboard, and negative (–) values cause the pitch to
fall as you play higher on the keyboard.
When this is set to 0 , playing different notes on the keyboard
won’t change the pitch at all; it will be as if you’re always
playing C4. This can be useful for special effects sounds, for
instance.
If you want to create more complex effects, you can use one
of the Key Track generators as a source for Pitch Modulation
AMS.
JS+X [-60…+60 semitones]
This sets the maximum amount of pitch bend, in semitones,
when you move the joystick to the right. For normal pitch
bend, set this to a positive value.
JS-X [-60…+60 semitones]
This sets the maximum amount of pitch bend, in semitones,
when you move the joystick to the left. For normal pitch
bend, set this to a negative value.
