(“
CS
”): Continuous Sliders
The
§
function button calls the Continuous Slider (“CS”) controller view, which
will look something like this:
The continuous sliders —
–
and
≠
— can be independently assigned to
several parameters that you can control in real time while playing (also see “Quick
Editing In the Play Mode”, below). The parameters available for editing via the continu-
ous sliders are individually preset for each voice. You can select from the available range
by using the “Continuous Slider” assignment function (
≥
Page 40).
The continuous slider view shows you which parameters are assigned to which
controller as well as the current positions of the controllers and parameter values.
Quick Editing In the Play Mode
Although detailed voice editing is carried out in the EDIT mode, the
–
and
≠
sliders on the VL7 panel can be used to change the assigned parameters in real time
while playing in the PLAY mode. This can be used simply an expressive tool, or as a
way to actually change the sound of the voice to suit your individual musical require-
ments. Since the
–
and
≠
sliders actually edit the parameters to which they are
assigned, the “new” voice created by using the sliders can be stored to one of the VL7’s
voice memory locations and used just as if it had been edited in the EDIT mode (
≥
the
STORE operation is described on page 27). The parameters available for editing via the
–
and
≠
sliders are individually preset for each voice. You can select from the
available range by using the “Continuous Slider” assignment function (
≥
Page 40).
