Reed Model
This oscillator is a physical model which simulates
woodwind reed instruments such as a saxophone or oboe.
By using key velocity or the modulation wheel to control
Pressure (the strength with which the reed is blown), you
can use performance expressions that are very close to
those of an actual woodwind instrument. Also, by
modulating the characteristics of the reed, you can
produce tonal changes that correspond with the way in
which a reed is blown.
Inst Type
Select a model to specify the bore length
and shape of the instrument to be simulated
Reed Character
Specify the vibrational
characteristics of the reed
Presure Specify the force of the breath that is blown into the reed
Noise Specify the amount of breath noise

Jump Bend:
JS(+X) (JoX)
Specifies how the pitch will change when the joystick
is moved in the +X direction (toward the right).
If this is checked, the pitch will rise in steps by
changing the resonance of the bore, as on a flute.
If this is unchecked, the pitch will rise smoothly, as
on most synthesizers.
JS(-X) (Joystick -X)
Specifies how the pitch will change when the joystick is
moved in the –X direction (toward the left).
If Jump Bend (+X) and Jump Bend (–X) are
checked, notes may not sound depending on
the position of the joystick and the pitch range
setting.
For details on setting the pitch range of the
joystick, refer to “1–2c: Pich Bend.”
1–3b: Breath Pressure
EG
[EG 1…EG 4, AmpEG]
Selects the EG which will control pressure.
For details on the settings for each EG, refer to
“Program P6” for EG 1–4, and “4–3: Amp EG” for
Amp EG.
Intensity (Pressure EG Intensity)
[–99…+99]
Specifies the depth and direction of the effect that the
EG will have on the pressure.
AMS1 (Alternate Modulation Source 1)
[Off…MIDI:CC#83]
Selects a modulation source 1 (
☞
p.48 of this manual)
that will control pressure. If you select After Touch,
pressing down on the keyboard will produce the effect
of the instrument being blown strongly. If you select
Joy Stick (X), moving the joy stick toward the right
will produce this effect.
Intensity (Pressure AMS1 Intensity)
[–99…+99]
Specifies the depth and direction of the change in
pressure controlled by AMS1.
AMS2 (Alternate Modulation Source 2)
[Off…MIDI:CC#83]
Selects a modulation source 2 (
☞
p.48 of this manual)
that will control pressure.
Intensity (Pressure AMS2 Intensity)
[–99…+99]
Specifies the depth and direction of the change in
pressure controlled by AMS2.
Breath Noise
[0…99]
Specifies the volume level of the breath noise.
Since this uses the signal from the noise generator, the
filter of the noise generator can be used to modify the
tone of the noise.
