Velocity Sensitivity EG Time: This parameter determines how the overall level of VDA1 EG time
parameters are affected by note velocity. It affects the VDA1 EG Attack, Decay, Slope, and
Release Time parameters equally. Although, the direction of change can be set independently for
each parameter.
9B
Attack, Decay, Slope, Release Times: These parameters determine whether the VDA1 EG time
parameters (9A) are reduced or increased with changing note velocity (as you play the keyboard
more forcefully). For a negative (–) value, they are increased the stronger you play, for a positive
(+) value they are reduced the stronger you play. In other words, for a positive setting, the stronger
you play, the shorter the Attack, Decay, Slope, and Release times become. This is especially
effective on string type Programs. In the following illustration, all parameters are set to positive.
9C
Keyboard Tracking Key: For Low and High keyboard tracking modes, this parameter specifies
the key from which keyboard tracking starts. For All mode, it specifies the key around which
keyboard tracking will take place. At the specified key, keyboard tracking will have no effect.
Keyboard Tracking Modes: Keyboard tracking determines how the VDA EG applies to different
areas of a keyboard. There are four Keyboard Tracking modes: Off, Low, High, and All. When Off
is selected, there is no keyboard tracking and the Keyboard Tracking Amplitude and Keyboard
Tracking EG Time parameters are disabled. When Low is selected, keyboard tracking is active on
keys below the specified Keyboard Tracking Key. When High is selected, keyboard tracking is
active on keys above the specified Keyboard Tracking Key. When All is selected, keyboard
tracking is active across the entire keyboard.
9D
Keyboard Tracking Amplitude: This parameter determines keyboard tracking amplitude for the
specified keyboard area. Positive values make high notes louder. Negative values have the opposite
effect.
