B. Advanced Preset menus
The Advanced Preset menu provides a set of additional programming parameters for each preset. These
parameters are stored individually for each preset.
FILTER POLES:
This menu allows you choose the number of Filter Poles for the
preset. The number of Filter Poles specifies the filter response, from a
gentle 6db/octave (1 pole) to a steep 24db/octave (4 poles). To select
the number of Filter Poles, use the
CURSOR
button to highlight the
parameter, then use the
VALUE
knob to set the new parameter value.
Values: 1, 2, 3, 4
EGR RELEASE:
This menu allows you to turn the EGR Release parameter ON and
OFF. EGR Release is used to enable or disable the Release segment
of both the filter and volume envelopes. To change the status, use the
CURSOR
button to highlight the parameter, then use the
VALUE
knob
to set the new parameter value.
Values: ON, OFF
GATE:
The Gate menu allows you to select how the envelopes are triggered
when more than one key is pressed on the keyboard. A setting of
LEG ON (Legato ON) means that the envelopes aren’t retriggered
until the key is fully released. A setting of LEG OFF (Legato OFF) will
retrigger the envelope on a new note from the current EGR level. A
setting of EGR RESET will force the envelope generators to start from
0 volts each time a note is triggered. To change the Gate mode, use
the
CURSOR
button to highlight the parameter, then use the
VALUE
knob to set the new parameter value.
Values: LEG ON, LEG OFF, EGR RESET
FILTER SENSITIVITY (FILT. SENS):
The Filter Sensitivity menu allows you to select how the keyboard
velocity will affect the filter cutoff frequency. Positive values increase
the velocity sensitivity. This will raise the filter cutoff as the keys
are struck harder, mimicking the properties of acoustic instruments.
Negative values will have the opposite effect, lowering the filter cutoff
frequency as the keys are struck harder.
To change the parameter, use
the
CURSOR
button to highlight the parameter, then use the
VALUE
knob to set the new parameter value.
Values: -8... 0... +8
