8.AMP (Amplifier) — SYNTH

These parameters specify the volume. The sound that is created by passing through the oscillator and filter is amplified by the amp. "LEVEL" (knob 1) adjusts the volume. "KBD TRACK" (knob 4) adjusts how keyboard tracking will affect the volume, and "DISTORTION" (knob 3) specifies whether the sound will be distorted.

You can use "PANPOT" (knob 2) to set the pan (stereo position of the sound).

LEVEL[0...127]

Adjusts the volume of the timbre.

If the "SINGLE/LAYER" is Layer, this setting will adjust the volume balance between timbre 1 and tim- bre 2.

PANPOT [L63...Center...R63]

Adjusts the location of the sound in the stereo field.

L63() is far left, Center ()

is center, and R63 () is far right.

DISTORTION

[OFF, ON]

Specifies whether distortion will be applied to the output of the timbre. The degree of distortion is adjusted by the output level of each oscilla- tor in the MIXER.

OFF ():

Distortion is off.

ON ():

Distortion is on.

KBD TRACK

[-63...63]

Specifies how keyboard tracking will affect the volume.

With positive (+) settings, the vol- ume will increase as you play above the C4 note on the keyboard, and will decrease as you play below C4.

With negative (-) settings, the vol- ume will decrease as you play above the C4 note on the keyboard, and will increase as you play below C4.

Keyboard Track operates ac- cording to the pitch that is con- trolled by pitch bend, and trans- pose. It is not affected by pitch changes produced by vibrato or Virtual Patch.
