Output level
Press (OUT LEVEL)
Function
Set the output level for each operator.
If keyboard rate scaling is applied to carrier oper-
ators, low notes will have a gradual attack and a long
release, and high notes will have a sharp attack and short
release. If keyboard rate scaling is applied to modulator
operators, low notes will have a slow change in tone,
and high notes will have a rapid change in tone.
Settings
0-99
Keyboard scaling (level)
Explanation Press (SCALING) twice.
At a setting of 0 there will be no output, and a setting
of 99 is maximum.
The output level of an operator that is acting as
a
carrier
will determine the volume. The output level
of an operator that is acting as a
modulator
will de-
termine the tone of the operators below it.
If you do not need to use an operator, you can
set its output level to 0.
Function
Set how the output level of each operator is adjusted
across the keyboard.
Note:
If you set the output level of all carrier operators to
0, there will be no sound.
Settings
–99–+99
Explanation
A setting of 0 has no effect, and 99 or -99 have
maximum effect. The following diagram shows the
result of keyboard level scaling for a setting of
+ 1–+99. (Settings of – l– – 99 will have the op-
posite effect.)
Keyboard scaling (rate)
Press (SCALING)
Keyboard rate scaling adjusts the rate of change of the
envelope generator for each operator across the key-
board.
Function
Set how the envelope generator rates are adjusted
across the keyboard.
Settings
0 – 3
Explanation
A
setting of 0 has almost no rate scaling effect, and
a setting of 3 has maximum scaling effect. The fol-
lowing diagram shows the result of keyboard rate
scaling.
48 Voice Edit
When low notes are played, the envelope changes gra-
dually, and when high notes are played, the envelope
changes rapidly.
Low notes will have a higher output level, and high notes
will have a lower output level.
If keyboard level scaling is applied to carrier oper-
ators, higher notes will have lower volume. If keyboard
level scaling is applied to modulator operators, higher
notes will have softer tone.
