example, shows Algorithm 1 with all the possible values for each DSP function lined up under
the blocks that represent the DSP functions.
Notice that PITCH is the only value available for the Þrst block, and AMP is the only value
available for the last block. The center, three-stage block, however, allows you to choose from
seven DSP functions. An eighth value, NONE, deactivates the block.
Common DSP Control Parameters
The type of DSP function available for any function block depends on the algorithm. Some of
the specialized functions like the PANNER are always located just before the Þnal AMP
function. Others, like the three-input functions, appear only in algorithms that are structured
for three-input functions.
You can change the nature of each layer of a program simply by assigning different DSP
functions to the layerÕs algorithm. Your level of control goes much deeper than that, however.
Each DSP function has one or more inputs to which you can patch a variety of control sources
to modify the behavior of the DSP functions themselves. These control inputs are represented
by the arrows pointing down at the blocks that make up the algorithm. For each input arrow,
thereÕs a corresponding control input page that you can select with the Þve special soft buttons
we mentioned above (PITCH, and F1ÐF4). All of the DSP functions have at least one control
input, but many of them have two or even three inputs.
The parameters on the various control input pages are very similar; in fact, there are six
parameters that appear on almost every page. Consequently we refer to them as the common
DSP control parameters. Although the parameters on the control input pages differ slightly
from function to function, you can expect to see some or all of the common DSP control
parameters whenever you select the control input page for any of the DSP functions. They are:
Initial Setting Parameters
These have no input, but set the overall level for the function, the starting point from which the
other parameters modulate the function.
Coarse adjust (abbreviated ÒCoarseÓ)
Fine adjust (Fine)
Hard-wired Parameters
These always take their input from your MIDI controller; the note number and the attack ve-
locity values of each Note On event.
