●[F4]-[SF1] Normal Element Amplitude Level/Pan

This display not only lets you make basic Level and Pan settings for each individual element, it also gives you some detailed and unusual parameters for affecting Pan position.

• Level

Determines the output level for the selected element. ❏ Settings 0 ~ 127

• Pan

Determines the stereo Pan position for the selected element. This will also be used as the basic Pan position for the Alternate, Random and Scale settings.

❏ Settings L63 (Left) ~ C (Center) ~ R63 (Right)

• AlternatePan

Determines the amount by which the sound of the selected element is panned alternately left and right for each note you press. The Pan setting (above) is used as the basic Pan position.

❏ Settings L64 ~ 0 ~ R63

• RandomPan

Determines the amount by which the sound of the selected element is panned randomly left and right for each note you press. The Pan setting is used as the Center Pan position.

❏ Settings 0 ~ 127

• ScalingPan

Determines the degree to which the notes (specifically, their position or octave range) affect the Pan position, left and right, of the selected element. At note C3, the main Pan setting (above) is used for the basic Pan position.

❏ Settings -64 ~ 0 ~ +63

Voice Edit mode

• EG Time, Segment

Determines the velocity sensitivity of the AEG’s Time parameters. Select the Segment, then set its Time parameter.

Positive Time settings will play back the specified Segment faster and negative values will play it back slower.

❏ Settings Time	-64 ~ 0 ~ +63
Segment	ATK, ATK+DCY, DCY,
	ATK+RLS, all

ATK

Affects the Attack Time.

ATK+DCY

Affects the Attack Time and Decay1 Time.

DCY

Affects the Decay Time.

ATK+RLS

Affects the Attack Time and Release Time.

all

Affects all AEG Time parameters.

• EG Level, Curve

Determines the velocity sensitivity of the Amplitude EG
Level. Positive settings cause greater volume changes the
harder you play the keyboard. Negative settings do the
opposite; the softer you play, the more the volume changes.
The Curve parameter lets you select from five different
preset velocity curves (graphically indicated in the
display), that determine how velocity affects the
Amplitude EG.		mode

Basic Structure (page 47)

From this display you can make all the time and level settings for the Amplitude EG, which determine how the volume of the sound changes over time.

●[F4]-[SF2] Normal Element Amplitude Velocity Sensitivity

From this display you can determine how the Amplitude (volume) EG responds to velocity. (For Amplitude EG settings, see “AEG” below.)

The full names of the available parameters are shown in the chart below, as they appear in the display.
