About Operator On/Off Controls
Each operator can be independently turned on and off during editing --- an important
tool in hearing the effects of your edits. For example, you may want to temporarily
mute one carrier operator to better hear the edits you are making on another carrier.
Or you may want to turn an operator alternately on and off to hear how its presence
and absence affects the overall sound.
Click the appropriate "OP No." (Operator Number) button (1 - 6). When an operator is
off, all its parameters are ghosted.
Keep in mind that Operator On/Off is used only temporarily in editing and the on/off sta-
tus is not saved with the pattern. To actually turn an operator off, set its
to
"0."
• Operator Key Velocity Sensitivity
Range: 0 ... 7
This determines the touch sensitivity of an operator, or how its level responds to your
playing strength. When Velocity Sensitivity is set to a value other than "0," the harder you
play a key, the greater the level of the corresponding operator. The softer you play a key,
the lower the level. When this is set to "0," the operator level remains the same, no mat-
ter how softly or strongly you play the key. Higher values give you greater dynamic range
between low and high levels. Setting this to an appropriate value for a carrier operator
gives you touch control over volume; setting it for a modulator gives you touch control
over timbre.
The numbers in the top row indicate the operators' on/off status:
"1" for on, "0" for off. In this example, operator 3 is off.
