Sets the amount of variation produced by the controller assigned to damping. The higher the value the greater the variation. Positive values cause a decrease in damping in response to higher controller values (e.g. increased breath pressure or higher modulation wheel position), while minus values cause an increase in damping 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 damping.

46:Dmp Curve (VOICE mode only)

• Damping Curve

• Settings: -16 … +16

Determines the relationship between the controller value and damping. When set to “+00” the relationship is linear. That is, a change in the controller value produces a corresponding change in damp- ing. 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 damping.

Absorption47(30): Abs CC No.

•Absorption Control Change Number

•Settings: off … 95, AT, VEL, PB

“Absorption” simulates the effect of high-frequency loss at the end of the air column or string. The “Abs CC No.” parameter specifies the controller to be used for absorption control. When set to “off” no absorption variation can be applied via a controller.

•Please note that accurate keyboard pitch is produced only at when absorption is maximum.

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

48(31): AbsCtrlDpt

•Absorption Control Depth

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

Sets the amount of variation produced by the controller assigned to absorption. The higher the value the greater the variation. Positive values cause a decrease in absorption in response to higher controller values (e.g. increased breath pressure or higher modulation wheel position), while minus values cause an increase in absorption 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 absorption.
