4–5b: Harmonic
This models pressing down lightly (or firmly) in the middle
of the string, like playing harmonics on a guitar.
Use Excitation Position
[Check-box]
This makes the harmonic use the same position as the
excitation, including AMS modulation. Using this option
creates an interesting hybrid pluck/chime timbre.
When this is checked, the rest of the Position parameters will
be grayed out.
Position
[0…100.0]
This controls the position at which the string is being pressed
down. As when playing harmonics on a real string, the
harmonic will be loudest when the position aligns with the
harmonic series.
When the Harmonic
Tracking Mode
is set to
Keyboard
, it’s
easy to make the position match a specific harmonic, as
shown below. When
Tracking Mode
is set to
String
, the
values below are correct for the open-string notes only; on
other notes, the harmonics will line up with slightly higher
values.
Harmonic Position and the Harmonic Series, when Tracking
Mode = Keyboard
If
Use Excitation Position
is On, this parameter is grayed
out.
AMS
[List of AMS Sources]
This selects a modulation source to control the
Position
. For
a list of AMS sources, see “Alternate Modulation Source
(AMS) List” on page 901.
If
Use Excitation Position
is On, this parameter is grayed
out.
Intensity
[-100.0…+100.0]
This controls the depth and direction of the
Position
modulation.
If
Use Excitation Position
is On, this parameter is grayed
out.
Tracking Mode
[String Track, Keyboard]
This controls the relationship between the harmonic
Position
and the pitch.
String Track
scales the position according to the current
String, as set in the String Track section.
Keyboard
scales the position according to pitch, without
taking the String settings into account. This might be more
appropriate for clav sounds, for instance.
If
Use Excitation Position
is On, this parameter is grayed
out.
Pressure
[0.0…100.0]
This controls how hard the string is being pressed down.
Non-zero settings can create interesting special effects–but
for standard use, this should be left at 0.0, and then
modulated via AMS. For instance:
1. Follow the instructions under “Creating an initialized
2. Assign EG3 to Harmonic AMS1, and set the Intensity
to +100.0.
3. On the STR-1: EG– EG3 page, set the Break and
Sustain levels to +00.
4. Adjust the Decay Time between 0 and 20, and listen to
the way the sound changes.
This controls the amount of time that the string is being
pressed down. As you increase this time, the harmonic tone
will become more and more prominent. Around 18-20, the
harmonic tone takes over completely. As you increase from
20 to 50, the tone becomes more pure, and less bright.
AMS 1
[List of AMS Sources]
This selects the first modulation source to control the
Pressure
. Often, it will make sense to use an envelope here.
For a list of AMS sources, see “Alternate Modulation Source
(AMS) List” on page 901.
Intensity
[-100.0…+100.0]
This controls the depth and direction of the
Pressure
modulation.
Intensity Mod AMS
[AMS Sources]
This selects a AMS modulation source to scale the intensity
of
Pressure AMS 1
. For a list of AMS sources, see
“Alternate Modulation Source (AMS) List” on page 901.
Intensity
[-100.0…+100.0]
This controls the depth and direction of the
Intensity Mod
AMS
. Even if the main AMS
Intensity
is set to 0,
Intensity
Mod AMS
can still control the final amount of AMS over
the full +/-100 range.
AMS 2
[List of AMS Sources]
This selects the second modulation source to control the
Pressure
. For a list of AMS sources, see “Alternate
Modulation Source (AMS) List” on page 901.
Intensity
[-100.0…+100.0]
This controls the depth and direction of the
Pressure
modulation.
Intensity Mod AMS
[AMS Sources]
This selects a AMS modulation source to scale the intensity
of
Pressure AMS 2
. For a list of AMS sources, see
“Alternate Modulation Source (AMS) List” on page 901.
Intensity
[-100.0…+100.0]
This controls the depth and direction of the
Intensity Mod
AMS
. Even if the main AMS
Intensity
is set to 0,
Intensity
Mod AMS
can still control the final amount of AMS over
the full +/-100 range.
