Resonator
While the Impulse Expander tends to give the sound a metallic quality, the Resona-
tor produces a more woody resonance effect. Careful adjustment of the resonator’s
parameters can often bring a not-quite-right voice to life.
■

The Resonator Parameter Page

The Resonator basically consists of five parallel delay lines with independently
programmable delay times (DL1 through DL5, variable from 0.25 to 41.45 milliseconds).
Other parameters include variable “Decay Time”, “LPF Cutoff Freq.” (low-pass
filtercutoff frequency), “Diffusion”, and “Phase”.
Like the Impulse Expander, the Resonator is not essential for all voices and can be
turned completely off when not needed. It also has “Input Gain”, “Wet Level”,
and stereo “Level Balance” parameters that allow its effect to be blended into the
main sound as required (the cursor is moved around the block diagram in the “IE & RSN
SETTING” page, shown below, to select the parameters associated with the various
blocks).
