Pressure13(12): Prs CC No.

•Pressure Control Change Number

•Settings: off… 95, AT, VEL, PB

“Pressure” corresponds to the amount of breath pressure applied to a reed or mouthpiece, or the speed of the bow applied to a string. Pressure variations affect both volume and timbre. The “Prs

CCNo.” parameter specifies the controller to be used for pressure control. When set to “off” maximum pressure is applied at all times.

• Please note that pressure affects not only volume, but timbre and pitch as well. Accurate keyboard/controller pitch is produced only at maximum pressure.

• The “PrsCtrlDpt” parameter, below, must be set to an appropriate value (higher than “+01” or lower than “-01”) for pressure control to have any effect.

15:Prs Curve (VOICE mode only)

• Pressure Curve

• Settings: -16 … +16

Determines the relationship between the controller value and pressure. When set to “+00” the relationship is linear. That is, a change in the controller value produces a corresponding change in pressure. As the curve value increases the lower end of the controller range has relatively little effect on the sound while higher controller values produce more dramatic changes. Negative curve values have the opposite effect: the sound changes dramatically at low controller values while higher values produce relatively little effect. The “Curve” setting is reflected in the graph at the bottom of the display

—the horizontal axis represents the controller value and the vertical axis represents pressure.

14(13): PrsCtrlDpt

• Pressure Control Depth

Filter

•Settings: -127 … +127 (VL-XG Mode: -64 … +63)

16: Fil CC No. (VOICE mode only)

• Filter Control Change Number

• Settings: off… 95, AT, VEL, PB

Sets the amount of variation produced by the controller assigned to pressure. The higher the value the greater the variation. Positive values cause an increase in pressure in response to higher controller values (e.g. increased breath pressure or higher modulation wheel position), while minus values cause a decrease in pressure in response to higher controller values. The “Depth” setting is reflected in the graph at the bottom of the display

—the horizontal axis represents the controller value and the vertical axis represents pressure.

• Set this parameter to “+00” if do not intend to control pressure via a controller.

The “Fil CC No.” parameter specifies the controller to be used for filter cutoff frequency control (page 45). When set to “off” no filter frequency variation can be applied via a controller.

•The “FilCtrlDpt” parameter, below, must be set to an appropriate value (higher than “+01” or lower than “-01”) for filter control to have any effect.

•Most voices use the low-pass filter type, but some use the bandpass, high-pass, or band
