Korg KORG Pa50 user manual 12 AMP, AMP Modulation, Pan modulation, Amplifier keyboard tracking

PAGE 12 - AMP

These parameters control the volume and pan of the selected oscillator.

Program operating mode 117

Page 12 - Amp

PAGE 13 - AMP MODULATION

These settings allow you to apply modulation to amp (for each oscillator) to modulate the volume.

Amp	Osc1
Selected:	Osc1
Level:	120
Pan:	L001
AMS:	Note Number

Amp Mod	Osc1
Selected:	Osc1
Tracking Low:	C 3
Tracking High:	A#4
Ramp Low:	+48

Selected

Use this parameter to select an oscillator to put in edit. Alter- natively, you can select oscillators using the F1-F4 buttons.

Level

Volume of the selected oscillator.

Note: The volume of a Program can be controlled by CC#7 (vol- ume) and #11 (expression). The resulting level is determined by multiplying the values of CC#7 and #11. The Global MIDI channel is used for control.

0…127 Volume level.

Pan

Pan (stereo position) of the selected oscillator.

This parameter is not available when editing a Drum Pro- gram. Use the individual Pan control for each key (see “Pan” on page 109).

Random	The sound will be heard from a different loca-
	tion at each note-on.
L001	Places the sound at far left.
C064	Places the sound in the center.
R127	Places the sound to far right.

Note: This can be controlled by CC#10 (panpot). A CC#10 value of 0 or 1 will place the sound at the far left, a value of 64 will place the sound at the location specified by the “Pan” setting for each oscillator, and a value of 127 will place the sound at the far right. This is controlled on the global MIDI channel.

Pan modulation

AMS (Alternate Modulation Source)

Selects the source that will modify pan (see “AMS (Alternate Modulation Source) list” on page 123). This change will be relative to the “Pan” setting.

Intensity

Specifies the depth of the effect produced by “AMS”. For example, if “Pan” is set to C064 and “AMS” is Note Number, positive (+) values of this parameter will cause the sound to move toward the right as the note numbers increase beyond the C4 note (i.e., as you play higher), and toward the left as the note numbers decrease (i.e., as you play lower). Negative

(–)values of this parameter will have the opposite effect. -99…+99 Parameter value.

Selected

Use this parameter to select an oscillator to put in edit. Alter- natively, you can select oscillators using the F1-F4 buttons.

Amplifier keyboard tracking

These parameters let you use keyboard tracking to adjust the volume of the selected oscillator. Use the “Key” and “Ramp” parameters to specify how the volume will be affected by the keyboard location that you play.

Tracking Low/High

These settings specify the note number at which keyboard

tracking will	begin to apply. The volume will not change
between “Tracking Low” and “Tracking High”.
C–1…G9	Lowest/Highest note in the range.

Tracking Low

Keyboard tracking will apply to the range below the specified note number.

Tracking High

Keyboard tracking will apply to the range above the specified note number.

Ramp

These parameters specify the angle of keyboard tracking. -99…+99 Angle value.

Here is an example of volume changes produced by keyboard location and “Ramp” settings:

Volume
Ramp Low=+99			Ramp High=+99
Ramp Low=0			Ramp High=0
Ramp Low=–99			Ramp High=–99
			Key
	Key Low
		Key High

Ramp Low

With positive (+) values of this parameter, the volume will increase as you play notes below the “Tracking Low” note number. With negative (–) values, the volume will decrease.

Ramp High

With positive (+) values of this parameter, the volume will increase as you play notes above the “Key High” note number. With negative (–) values, the volume will decrease.
