OPERATION GUIDE
DISK
The
OPERATION GUIDE
DISK has been
prepared
to
help
users
understand
the various functions
of
the
S900
faster
and more
precisely.
Eight
programs
are stored
on
the
Operation
Guide
Disk,
each
one
clearly
explaining the features
of
the
S900.
1.
WELCOME
This
is
simply
an
introduction.
The
S900's
vast
memory makes
high quality
sound and
sampling
for
long
periods
of
time possi-
ble.
This
program
also
serves as a
POWER ON
LOAD
constant
pitch
demonstration.
2.
SAW-PGM
On
this
program,
saw
tooth
waves
have been sampled and
looped.
This
program
is
used
mainly
for
explanations
of
syn-
thesizer functions.
3.
SQU-PGM
On
this
program, square
waves
(short
waves
with
PW=50%)
have
been sampled and
looped.
4.
TRI-PGM
On
this
program,
triangular
waves
have been
sampled and
looped.
5.
1-2-3
PGM
On
this
program
the
numbers
"One,
Two
Three" have been
sampled.
This
program
is
used
mainly
for
edit
sampling scan-
ning explanations.
6.
ONE TO TEN
On
this
program "One"
to
"Ten" have
been sampled
separately,
these
ten
voices
have
been
divided
into
ten
key groups
and
the
key
split
function
has
been
used. This gives a demonstration
of
the
S900's abundant
output
and
key assign
functions.
7.
VEL-SWITCH
On
this
program,
two samples,
"Soft"
and
"Loud"
are divided ac-
cording
to
the
key
velocity strength
and
played
"Loud"
when
there are
64
or
more
MIDI
velocity
data
bits
and
"Soft"
when
there are less
than
64
data
bits.
This gives a demonstration
of
the
velocity
switch
function.
8.
VEL-CROSS
On
this
program,
"Soft"
and
"Loud"
voices
have
been sampled
in
pairs
and
velocity
cross
feeding
has been
made
possible.
The
program
is
set
so
that:
When
velocity
data
is
large:
"Loud"
is
played.
When
velocity
data
is
small: "Soft"
is
played.
When
velocity
data
is
medium:
"Loud"
+
"Soft"
is
played.
This gives a demonstration
of
the
velocity
cross feed
function.
