In order for your ZETA SYNTHONY II to optimally translate the information coming from your instrument into MIDI information, there are a few basic parameters that need to be set in terms of sensitivity, etc. These settings are dependent upon the structure of your instrument, and are very specific. They can be totally different for different instruments. If, in the middle of a live performance, you decide you want to play another instrument with your ZETA SYNTHONY II, you can quickly call up settings for that particular instrument. It is simply a matter of selecting the appropriate instrument number. You can program basic settings for five totally distinct instruments into your ZETA SYNTHONY II. When you press the ENTER button, you toggle through the various settings. Use the +/- Parameter buttons to select the individual functions. The values can then be changed using the +/- Value buttons. Within these basic settings, the first line in your display shows a VU meter. The position of the small dashes correspond to the strings of your instrument. When you play a string, you will see that the associated dash fills in more and more until playing loudly fills out the entire character space.

TYP

Type of instrument (VIOLIN 4, VIOLIN 5, VIOLA, CELLO, BASS).

You decide here what type of instrument you will be using. This is particularly important for the assigning of string and hold channels.

NOTE OFF LIM

Note off Limiter (10…30)

Unlike a keyboard, where a key is pressed and the note ends when you release the key, a instrument string sounds until its vibrations decay totally or until it is dampened. The decay time is most definitely dependent upon the quality and structure of the instrument and the strings. Some instruments sound more percussive; others have a longer sustain. Synthesizers recreate these characteristics using a so-called ”envelope curve,” to graphically reproduce an instrument’s characteristic of decaying amplitude (volume) as it diminishes to zero. By setting a limit point within the envelope, we can determine at what point in time a note’s ”release” comes; the point at which it ceases to sound. The higher this value, the earlier a MIDI NOTE OFF event will be sent to the MIDI instruments. Smaller values will allow the note to be held longer. In this way you can adjust this value to match your instrument optimally.
