• Real-time Control over Insertion Effects:
Other possible destinations include real-time
control over the powerful DUAL INSERTION
EFFECTS that can be applied to a VOICE.
Refer to the Effect Parameter List (page 27-
35) for an idea of potential here. When
targeting a control destination if an effect
parameter can be real-time controlled you will
see an abbreviation of the parameter name
appear in the Control Set. If not controllable
in real-time, the parameter will be designated
with a "P" number, as in "INS2P10". For
example, call up

How the assignment of controls works
Example Assignment: In this example we deal
with controlling VOLUME via controllers within a
S90 ES sample-based Voice. This can be tricky,
but this example should make clear how it works.
--Let's say you want to control the total Volume
of the Voice with the Modulation Wheel. MIDI
control change message #001 is the Modulation
Wheel. The modulation wheel can be assigned to
control all
synthesizer, not just vibrato (Pitch Modulation
Depth). But for our example let's see what
happens when you attempt to assign the MW to
control overall volume. For our experiment let's
initialize a voice. This way we are not inheriting
to
values from a preprogrammed Controller Set.
From Voice mode:
• Press the following buttons:
• Press [JOB]
the
• Press [F1] INIT
• Press [ENTER]
• Press [INC/YES] to execute.
This will create an INIT VOICE with just a piano
wave in it.
• Press [EDIT]
Let's select a synth wave. Navigate to the
–
OSCILLATOR WAVE page:
• Press Program button [1] to drop to the
Element level of editing. (Notice the
Inverse video 'E' and the 'EL1' on the top
line – denoting the Voice has been edited
but not yet stored and we are editing
Element 1.)
