Use the following procedure to modify the envelopes:
1. Press
ENTER
repeatedly to select one of the parameters: “Segment”, “Time”, “Level”.
2. Rotate the
DIAL
to select a “Segment”, modify its relative “Time” or “Level” value.
The “Time” and “Level” values can be inserted with the
NUMERIC KEYPAD
.
3.
Press
ENTER
to select the next parameter. After “Level” , the “Segment” parameter will
be selected again.
4.
Select the “Add segm.” command to add a new segment directly after the one selected. Select
the “Del. segm.” command to cancel the selected segment.
Tracking
Types of Tracking
Tracking follows the movements of a parameter across the keyboard. In practice, you can
control the variation of a parameter (Volume or Pan) with respect to the note played.
Tracking is indispensable for the correct simulation of real sounds, because it renders the
lower, medium and high frequencies of the scale homogeneous.
Tracking can be applied to the following parameters:
Volume Volume Tracking modifies the volume of the Sound across the keyboard.
Pan Pan Tracking modifies the position of the sounds in the stereo panorama across the keyboard.
For.ex. the higher frequencies can be moved to the left and the lower ones to the right (or vice-versa).
Filter Filter Tracking modifies the cut-off frequency with respect to the note played. It is useful to
avoid the complete “filtration” of the notes above the cut-off frequency. It is also useful to provide
more or less “brilliance” to the sound across the keyboard.
Amplitude Envelope The Amplitude Envelope Tracking modifies the completion velocity of the
Amplitude Envelope across the keyboard. Acoustic instruments are characterised by having a
shorter (faster) envelope for the higher notes with respect to the lower ones.
Filter Envelope The Filter Envelope Tracking modifies the completion velocity of the Filter Enve-
lope across the keyboard.
Pitch Envelope The Pitch Envelope Tracking modifies the completion velocity of the Pitch
Envelope across the keyboard.
Programming the Tracking
The Tracking edit pages consist of a graphic parameter. For example, the following
display shows the Amplitude Envelope Tracking curve, almost identical to all other
Tracking curves:
Point One of the extreme ends of the selected segment of the Tracking.
Key The keyboard position corresponding to the Point in edit. The Points at the extremes have a
Key parameter which cannot be modified (A#0, G8).
Level Determines the offset value of the envelope or sound parameter at the selected Point
(Volume Tracking curves have negative Level values, because they represent offset values with
respect to the maximum Volume of the Sound).
