Voice Selection

Voice Selection

One of the first things you’ll want to do with your VL1-m is select

and play some of its voices … this section will show you how to do just
that.

Selecting & Playing the VL1-m’s 128 Voices

1.

Select the Play Mode

Press the 

P

 button so that its indicator lights and the word “

PLAY

” appears in

the upper left corner of the LCD panel.

A considerable amount of information appears on the play-mode display in addition

to the name of the currently selected voice. Many of the functions relating to this infor-
mation will be covered later in the manual. For now, here are the basics:

Voice B02 (no. 18 of 128).

Element E1 name: Alto Sax

Mono voice, 
using a single element.

Voice name: Alto Sax.

Play mode.

Reverb is ON.

Stereo output mode.

Effects in use: Pitch Change, 
Feedback Delay off and 
Studio type reverb.

Pressure, Amplitude, 
or D.Filter Controller *

* If controllers are assigned to both Pressure and Amplitude, the con-

troller with the highest amplitude depth value will be displayed. If
neither is assigned, the Dynamic Filter controller will be displayed (if
assigned).

The abbreviations in the section separated by a line at the bottom of the display

(“

Cnt1

”, “

Cnt2

”, etc) indicate the functions of the corresponding function buttons

below the display:
