1–6: X-Y Envelope
1–6a
1–6b
1–6c
The X-Y Envelope works to control the X-Y position. It's
also special because it's the only programmable modulation
source which lets you modulate both Program and Effects
parameters.
The X-Y Envelope is different from the other envelopes in
several ways:
• Each point has two "levels" - one for the X axis, and one
for the Y axis.
• The envelope times can be based on seconds and
milliseconds, or synced to tempo.
• Each point has a hold time, as well as a transition time to
the next point.
• The envelope can loop between two points, for either a
specified number of repeats, or as long as you hold the
note.
X-Y Volume and CC control use separate EGs
There are actually two different X-Y Envelopes, which share
the same parameters: one for Volume Control, and the other
for CC Control.
All of the notes in the Program share a single CC Control
EG, since there can only be one set of CCs for each MIDI
channel. This EG starts when you first play a note, and
continues as long as any notes are held down on the
keyboard. When you release all of the notes, the EG goes
into its release phase.
Each note then has its own, additional Volume Control EG.
The Key Sync parameter applies only to this per-note EG.
When the Key Sync parameter is Off, the CC Control and
Volume Control EGs are completely synchronized.
When Key Sync is On, each note's Volume Control EG will
start at note-on, and go into release at note-off. All the notes
will still share a single CC Control EG.
PROGRAM > Basic/X-Y/Controllers 1–6: X-Y Envelope
1–6a: Basic
X-Y Envelope On
On (checked): When this box is checked, the X-Y Envelope
will work to control the X-Y position.
Off (unchecked): When this box is not checked, the X-Y
Envelope will not run.
Key Sync
The Key Sync parameter applies only to X-Y Volume
control. As described under "X-Y Volume and CC control
use separate EGs," above, X-Y CC control always acts as if
Key Sync were Off.
On (checked): When Key Sync is On, the X-Y Volume EG
starts each time you press a key, and an independent EG runs
for each note. This is the normal setting.
Off (unchecked): When Key Sync is Off, the X-Y Volume
EG starts from the phase determined by the first note in the
phrase, so that the EGs for all notes being held are
synchronized together.
Mode
Time: When the Mode is set to Time, you can set the EG
segment times in seconds or milliseconds.
Tempo: When the Mode is set to Tempo, the X-Y Envelope
will synchronize to the system tempo, as set by either the
Tempo knob or MIDI Clock. Instead of using seconds and
milliseconds, you can specify the EG times as rhythmic
values, using the Base Note and Multiplier parameters.
1–6b: X-Y Envelope Loop
The X-Y Envelope can loop between two points, and can
continue to loop either for as long as you hold the note, or for
a specified number of repeats. You can also turn the loop off
completely, if you like.
