8 [DETAIL] button
Click this to open the "EL DETAIL" dialog and set the parameters for each Element. You have
wider and more accurate control over the parameters than with the editor graphs.
Editor graphs
Within these graphs, click and drag the "handles" (square marks) to visually adjust the parameters
for each Element.
n
Sometimes, not all the handles are visible as they may be layered on top of each other at the same position.
If this is the case, click the visible handle and drag it away temporarily to reveal the next handle.
OSCILLATOR Settings
Click on the "WAVE" text box and choose the source waveform. One of the square marks is used
to set "VEL LIMIT LOW" and "NOTE LIMIT LOW." Set the lowest note velocity response by
dragging this the handle horizontally. Set the lowest note in the key range by dragging it vertically.
Similarly, set the highest note velocity ("VEL LIMIT HIGH") and key range note ("NOTE LIMIT
HIGH") using the other handle.
n
When dragging the handles, values are given as (X,Y) coordinates, where X is the NOTE LIMIT (given as a
MIDI note number) and Y is the VEL LIMIT. To view the note name instead of the note number, select the
"OSCILLATOR" tab of the "EL DETAIL" dialog.
FILTER Settings
Click on the text box and choose the filter type. The graph shows pre-defined settings initially, but
you can edit these. Using the LPF type as an example, drag the left handle vertically to set the
Filter Gain. Drag the right handle horizontally to set the Filter Cutoff frequency.
n
Parameter values are shown when dragging the handles. To set these values directly, select the "FILTER
EG" tab of the "EL DETAIL" dialog.
EQ Settings
Click on the text box and choose the equalizer type. Using the EQ/LH type as an example, the left
handle controls the bass frequencies and the right handle controls the treble frequencies. Drag the
handles vertically to adjust gain, and horizontally to adjust the frequency.
n
To set these values directly, select the "OSCILLATOR" tab of the "EL DETAIL" dialog.
PITCH EG Settings
The PITCH EG (Envelope Generator) determines the transition in pitch while the key is being held
down. There are five handles, each controlling a different stage in the envelope.
The first square mark (furthest to the left) controls the "Hold Time/Level." The second controls the
"Attack Time/Level." The third controls the "Decay 1 Time/Level." The fourth controls the "Decay 2
Time/Sustain Level." The last handle (furthest to the right) controls the "Release Time/Level." Drag
the handles vertically to adjust levels, and horizontally to adjust the transition times.
n
To set these values directly, select the "PITCH" tab of the "EL DETAIL" dialog.
