AMP Scale (AMP Scaling Break Point)

You can set four Amplitude Scaling Break Points for each Element. Amplitude Scaling controls the amplitude according to the positions of the notes on the keyboard. There are four Break Points used to divide and assign different settings across the keyboard. The Levels (Offsets) at each of Break Point are set in the AMP Scale screen.

Details about Amplitude Scaling are given later in the section “Amplitude Scaling Settings.”

The Break Point Levels are Offsets used to increase or decrease the current amplitude at the specified notes. Regardless of the size of these Offsets, the minimum and maximum amplitude limits (values of 0 and 127, respectively) cannot be breached.

A note set below the BP1 will become the BP1 Level. A note set above BP4 will become the BP4 Level.

The Levels of the Elements themselves are set in the OSC Out screen (Page 74).

■BP1/BP2/BP3/BP4 (Break Point1/2/3/4)

Set the Break Points for each Element. BP1 to BP4 will automatically be arranged in ascending order across the keyboard.

❏ Settings: BP1 to BP4: C-2 ~ G8

You can also set each Break Point by pressing the respective note on the keyboard while holding down the [SHIFT] key.

There are various settings for the LFO. The LFO is used to generate low frequency signals and can be used to create vibrato/wah/tremolo/etc. effects when applied to pitch/filter/amplitude parameters. Different LFO parameters can be set for each Element. The following two screens are available.

You can set various parameters controlling the LFO waveform. Select the waveform used by the LFO and set the speed of change.

■Ofst1/Ofst2/Ofst3/Ofst4 (Offset 1/2/3/4) Set the Amplitude Scaling Offset Levels. These Offsets are used by the Break Points (BP1/BP2/BP3/BP4).

Details about Amplitude Scaling are given later in the section “Amplitude Scaling Settings.”

Here, the current amplitude is 80. The Offsets are –4 at BP1 (set to note E1), +10 at BP2 (set to note B2), +17 at BP3 (set to note G4) and +4 at BP4 (set to A5). That is, the amplitudes at each Break Point are 76, 90, 97 and 84, respectively. For other notes, the amplitudes will be on the straight line connecting the two adjacent Break Points.

The Break Points are automatically arranged in ascending order across the keyboard. For example, BP2 cannot be set to a lower note than that of BP1.
