VOLUME
JOB 3
Summary: Allows individual adjustment of element
volume as well as overall (total) volume adjust-
ment.
Settings: 0 ... 127
Procedure: The and cursor keys are used
to select the element for which the volume is to
be adjusted, or overall "Total" volume control
(EL1, EL2, EL3, EL4 or Total will appear in the
upper right-hand comer of the display). Unavail-
able elements are represented by "***" on the
display. The [DATA ENTRY] control, [-1/NO]
and [+1/YES] keys, or numeric and [ENTER] keys
are used to set the desired volume.
Details: A setting of "0" produces no sound while a
setting of "127" produces maximum volume.
The ability to independently adjust the vol-
ume of each element makes it simple to set up
the optimum balance or "mix" between ele-
ments. Overall volume adjustment can be used
to match the the overall level of different voices.
Refer to: Tutorial, page 42.
NOTE SHIFT
JOB 4
Summary: Individually shifts the pitch of each ac-
tive element up or down in semitone steps.
Settings: -64 ... +63.
Procedure: The and cursor keys are used
to select the element to be note-shifted (EL1,
EL2, EL3 or EL4 will appear in the upper right-
hand comer of the display). Unavailable ele-
ments are represented by "***" on the dis-
play. The [DATA ENTRY] control, [-1/NO] and
(+1/YES] keys, or numeric and [ENTER] keys are
used to set the desired degree of note shift.
Details: A setting of "-12," for example, shifts the
pitch of the selected element down by one oc-
tave; a setting of "+4" shifts the pitch up by a
major third.
The Note Shift function can be used to trans-
pose a voice to its most useful range, or to create
harmony (intervals) between different elements
in a multi-element voice.
Refer to: Utility mode "TRANSPOSE," page 132.
