COSM List

COSM Parameters

COSM provides 15 types. This section explains the features of each COSM, and the functions of the parameters.

Explanations for each COSM Type are given on the following pages.

Overdrive / Distortion	OD/DS	(p. 111)
Wave Shape	W-SHAPE	(p. 111)
Amp Simulator	AMP	(p. 112)
Speaker Simulator	SPEAKER	(p. 112)
Resonator	RESONATOR	(p. 112)
1st order SideBandFilter	SBF1	(p. 112)
2nd order SideBandFilter	SBF2	(p. 113)
Comb Filter	COMB	(p. 113)
Dual Filter	DUAL	(p. 113)
TVF	TVF	(p. 114)
Dynamic TVF	DYN-TVF	(p. 114)
Polyphonic Compressor	COMP	(p. 114)
Polyphonic Limiter	LIMITER	(p. 115)
Frequency Shifter	F-SHIFT	(p. 115)
Lo-Fi Processor	LO-FI	(p. 115)

Parameters marked by “#1”–“#4” can be selected as a destination parameter for matrix control (Destination). These correspond as follows.

#1: Destination CSM1/2-PRM1

#2: Destination CSM1/2-PRM2

#3: Destination CSM1/2-LFO-PRM1

#4: Destination CSM1/2-LFO-PRM2

Overdrive / Distortion

Overdrive produces a natural-sounding distortion similar to that produced by a vacuum tube amplifier. Distortion produces a more intense distortion than the overdrive effect.

Drive LFO Depth	-63– +63	Amount of LFO applied to
#3		distortion
* For details on	envelope settings, refer to “Making Envelope
Settings” (p. 48).
Tone
Tone #2	0–127	Tonal character
