Explanation
CC#
OSC1 RANGE
16’, 8’, 4’, 2’
Specifies the octave of OSC1.
47
OSC1 WAVEFORM
SAW,
PULSE,
SQR,
NOISE
Specifies the waveform that is the basis of the
OSC1 sound.
OSC1 TUNE
-12–+12
Adjusts the OSC1 pitch.
20
OSC1 LFO MOD
0–100
Adjusts the depth to which LFO modulates
OSC1.
26
OSC1 PIT ENV
-100–+100
Adjusts the depth to which the ENV specified
by OSC ENV MODE affects the OSC1 pitch
envelope.
22
OSC2 RANGE
16’, 8’, 4’, 2’
Specifies the OSC2 octave.
62
OSC2 WAVEFORM
SAW,
PULSE,
SQR,
NOISE
Selects the waveform that is the basis of the
OSC2 sound.
OSC2 MOD MODE
OFF,
SYNC,
X-MOD
Selects the MOD MODE type (OFF, SYNC,
X-MOD).
OSC2 TUNE
-12–+12
Adjusts the OSC2 pitch.
87
OSC2 FINE TUNE
-50–+50
Finely adjusts the OSC2 pitch.
56
OSC2 LFO MOD
0–100
Adjusts the depth to which the LFO
modulates OSC2.
OSC2 PIT ENV
-100–+100
Adjusts the depth to which the ENV specified
by OSC ENV MODE affects the OSC2 pitch
envelope.
PITCH DYNAMICS
0–3
Adjusts the sensitivity at which the velocity
controls the depth of the pitch envelope.
OSC ENV MODE
ENV1,
ENV2
Selects the envelope that is used to control
the OSC.
OSC1 LEVEL
0–255
Adjusts the OSC1 volume balance.
16
OSC2 LEVEL
0–255
Adjusts the OSC2 volume balance.
17
MIXER ENV
DEPTH
0–63
Adjusts the depth to which the envelope
specified by MIXER ENV MODE controls the
OSC2 level.
MIXER DYNAMICS
0–3
Adjusts the sensitivity at which the velocity
controls the depth of MIXER ENV.
MIXER ENV MODE
ENV1,
ENV2
Selects the envelope that is used as MIXER
ENV.
HPF-STEP
0–3
Sets the cutoff frequency of the high-pass
filter in four steps.
VINTAGE FLT TYPE
R, M, S
Selects one of three response curves, each
modeling the LPF of an analog synthesizer
of the past.
108
CUTOFF
0–1023
Specifies the cutoff frequency of the low-pass
filter. The frequency region above the cutoff
frequency is cut, producing a more mellow
tonal character.
3
RESONANCE
0–1023
Boosts the region of the filter’s cutoff
frequency. Higher values produce a stronger
result, giving the sound a distinctively
synthesizer-like character.
9
FILTER MOD
0–100
Adjusts the amount by which the LFO
modulates the cutoff frequency.
28
FLT ENV DEPTH
-1023–+1023
Adjusts the amount by which the envelope
selected by FLT ENV MODE controls the cutoff
frequency.
81
FLT KEY FOLLOW
0–200
Adjusts the amount by which the keyboard
pitch affects the cutoff frequency (key follow).
With smaller values, the cutoff frequency
becomes lower as you play higher notes.
82
FILTER DYNAMICS
0–3
Adjusts the sensitivity at which velocity
controls the depth of FILT ENV DEPTH.
FLT ENV MODE
ENV1,
ENV2
Selects the envelope that is used to control
FILTER.
AMP LEVEL
0–127
Adjusts the volume of the tone.
110
AMP ENV SEL
ENV2,
G-ENV2
Selects whether the volume is controlled by
ENV2 (ENV2) or stays at a fixed volume as
long as the key is held down (G-ENV2).
