5: LFO DELAY

Permits setting a delay of between 0 and approximately 10.7 seconds before the LFO modulation effect begins after a key is played. This is particularly useful for simulating brass instruments, human voice, etc., in which a vibrato effect is gradually applied after the note has been initiated.

The data range is from 0 to 99. At 0 there is no delay, and a setting of 99 produces an initial delay of approximately 10.7 seconds, which slowly increases over a period of 10.7 seconds. With longer delay settings the modulation effect begins gradually for a remarkably natural sound.

6: LFO PMD

This parameter sets the depth of pitch variation simultaneously produced by LFO modulation for all operators. This function is independent from pitch modulation produced by the modulation wheel and breath controller, and is always ON once set.

The data range is from 0 to 99. At 0 pitch modulation is OFF, and a setting of 99 produces the greatest pitch variation, dependent on the PITCH MODULATION SENSITIVITY setting, described below (9). When the PITCH MODULATION SENSITIVITY parameter is set to maximum (7), the maximum pitch variation (PM DEPTH = 99) will be ±800 cents.

Even if this parameter is set to 0, pitch modulation can still be applied via the modulation wheel or breath controller.

7: LFO AMD

This parameter sets the depth of amplitude variation (tremolo or wow) simultaneously produced by LFO modulation for all operators. This function is independent from amplitude modulation produced by the modulation wheel or breath controller, and is always ON once set.

The data range is from 0 to 99. At 0, amplitude modulation is OFF, and a setting of 99 produces the greatest variation, dependent on the AMPLITUDE MODULATION SENSITIVITY setting (10). When the AMPLITUDE MODULATION SENSITIVITY parameter is set to maximum (3). the maximum amplitude variation (AM DEPTH = 99) will be + 96 dB peak-to-peak.

Even if this parameter is set to 0, amplitude modulation can still be applied via the modulation wheel and breath controller.
