Quick Edit - (using the Sliders)
The eight sliders on the left side of the instrument’s control panel
allow you to instantly edit the most essential characteristics of
any sound.
LEVEL: The overall volume of the sound. The level increases as
the slider is moved upwards. Most factory sounds are pro-
grammed with optimum volume level set. Sometimes, especially
if you use the filters for special effects, the overall volume of the
sound may rise sharply and will need to be decreased so that it
better matches the level of other sounds.
ATTACK: This slider adjusts the time taken for a sound to reach
it’s maximum volume level after a key has been pressed. The
attack time increases as the slider is moved upwards. Setting a
very fast attack time, (with the slider all the way to the bottom),
will make a sound more percussive. Setting a slower attack time
will cause the sound to fade in slowly when a key is pressed.
Since this slider can be used to either increase or decrease the
amount of attack that the sound originally had, the original attack
time of the sound can be restored by setting the slider to its cen-
tre position.
DECAY: This slider will only affect those sounds which feature
“decay”. Decay is the effect of something fading away as you
hold a key on the keyboard. A piano sound is a good example of
a sound which has decay. As you hold down the key, the sounds
fades away or “decays”. Eventually you will hear no sound at all.
An organ sound, on the other hand, has no decay. The level of
the sound remains the same as long as you hold down a key.
The decay slider is used to adjust the amount of time it takes a
