Here’s how you can change the function of the
modulation wheel (MW1 on the VL1 Ver.2 and
VL7 Ver.2) as it applies to the AltoSax voice.
1.
Since we won’t be using the breath controller, foot
controller, or footswitch for this experiment, begin by
disconnecting them from the instrument. Just disonnect
the breath controller from the VL1-m.
2.
Roll the modulation wheel (MW1 on the VL1 Ver.2 and
VL7 Ver.2) all the way towards you.
3.
Make sure the
P
button indicator is lit. If it is not,
press the
P
button to engage the PLAY mode.
4.
Select voice number A01 — the “AltoSax” voice.
5.
On the VL1 Ver.2 and VL7 Ver.2, the MODULATION 2
wheel is initially set to produce the same effect as the
breath controller. With the wheel rolled all the way up,
the sound is the same as applying maximum pressure to
the breath controller. Roll the MODULATION 2 wheel
up to its maximum position.
This step is not necessary on the VL1-m Ver.2.
6.
Press the
¡
(Cnt) function button to call the CON-
TROLLER VIEW 1 display.
Note that the “Modulation” wheel is assigned to
“Vibrato”.
7.
While playing the keyboard with the right hand, try
operating the modulation wheel (MW1 on the VL1 Ver.2
and VL7 Ver.2) and note how it controls the vibrato
effect.
8.
Press the
£
(Cnt3) function button to call the CON-
TROLLER VIEW 3 display.
Note that no controller is assigned to “Growl”.
9.
Press
]
to return to the main PLAY mode display.
