• 04 (N:02): FreqMode (V & N)
Frequency Mode
Settings: (Voiced) ratio, fixed
(Unvoiced) normal, linkFO, linkFF
Specifies the frequency mode for the currently selected operator.
For voiced operators, the "fixed" setting causes the operator to remain at a fixed frequency regardless of the note
played. When set to "ratio," the operator frequency will depend on the note played, pitch control, and other
parameters which affect pitch.
For unvoiced operators, when "normal" is selected the operator frequency is determined by the F.Coarse and Freq
Fine parameters, below. When the "linkFO" (link to fundamental pitch) mode is selected, the voiced operator pitch is
available. When the "linkFF" (link to formant pitch) mode is selected the voiced formant pitch is used. This latter
mode can only be selected when the 03: Form parameter is set to "frmt".
• 05 (N:03): F.Coarse (V & N)
Frequency Coarse
Settings: 0.500 ... 61.69 (ratio mode). 0.0000 ... 28024 (fixed mode)
Allows coarse control of the center frequency of the formant when the "frmt" spectral form is selected (see "Form"
parameter, above), or the fundamental frequency of the operator's output when any other type of spectral form is
specified. Note that the value range is different when the "ratio" or "fixed" frequency mode is selected (see
"FreqMode" parameter, above). In the "ratio" mode the value is a ratio of the pitch: this parameter controls the real-
number portion of the value while Freq Fine, below, controls the portion to the right of the decimal point. When the
"fixed" mode is selected (this is the only mode for unvoiced operators), the value represents an absolute frequency.
Fine frequency adjustment is provided by the "F.Fine" parameter, below.
• 06 (N:04): Freq Fine (V & N)
Frequency Fine
Settings: 0.500 ... 61.69 (ratio mode). 0.0000 ... 28024 (fixed mode)
Allows fine control of the center frequency of the formant when the "frmt" spectral form is selected (see "Form"
parameter, above), or the fundamental frequency of the operator's output when any other type of spectral form is
specified. Note that the value range is different when the "ratio" or "fixed" frequency mode is selected (see
"FreqMode" parameter, above). In the "ratio" mode the value is a ratio of the pitch: this parameter controls the
portion of the value to the right of the decimal point while F.Coarse, above, controls the real-number portion. When
the "fixed" mode is selected (this is the only mode for unvoiced operators), the value represents an absolute
frequency. Coarse frequency adjustment is provided by the "F.Coarse" parameter, above.
• 07 (N:05): Freq Scaling (V & N)
Frequency Key Scaling
Settings: 0 ... 99
For voiced operators this parameter is only available when the 04: FreqMode parameter is set to "fixed", and for
unvoiced operators this parameter is only available when the 02: FreqMode parameter is set to "normal".
The Freq Scaling parameter allows the operator pitch to be varied across the entire pitch range. Higher values
produce an increasingly lower pitch for notes below C3, and an increasingly higher pitch for notes higher than C3.
Please note, however, that the C3 point will shift in accordance with the settings of the Note Shift parameters (pages
24, 40, 59, 71).
