(Green number): The modulator (modulating part) (White number): The carrier (modulated part)

Setting the Operator

The meaning and content of the parameter that can be set to the operator is described below.

Parameter	Meaning
	When the value of the carrier is large, the
Multiple	sound becomes high. You can set various
(13 levels)	types of notes by changing the values of the
	modulator.
Envelope
(Continu-	This sets continuous same note or fade-out.
ous/Decay)
Sustain	This sets a note to be sustained after com-
	pleting the note. If you want to have a note
(On/Off)
	with reverberation, set this function on.
Key Scale	Set the function to “2” if you want to a short
Rate
	note.
(2 levels)
Key Scale	This function sets the rate of reducing the
Level
	volume as a note becomes higher.
(4 levels)
	In the carrier, the volume becomes large as
	this level becomes higher.
Total Level	In the modulator, the melody becomes
(64 levels)	brighter as this level becomes higher. The
	melody becomes softer as this level
	becomes smaller.
Attack Rate	This sets the time from the beginning of the
(15 levels)	sound to the maximum volume.
