ENSEMBLE LEVEL
[ENSEMBLE]
Specify the depth of the ensemble. Ensemble is a type of
chorus which is applied more deeply. Rotating the knob
toward the right will deepen the effect.
VOICE MODULATOR DELAY LEVEL
[LEVEL]
Specify the volume of the Voice Modulator delay sound rel-
ative to the original sound. Rotating the knob toward the
right will make the delay sound louder.
VOICE MODULATOR DELAY TIME
[TIME]
Specify the time from when the original sound is heard
until the Voice Modulator delay sound is heard (i.e., the
interval between delay repeats). Rotating the knob toward
the right will lengthen the time.
VOICE MODULATOR DELAY FEEDBACK 0–127
[FEEDBACK]
Specify the amount of feedback for the Voice Modulator
delay sound (i.e., how the repeating delay sounds will
diminish over time). With low amounts of feedback, the
delay sound will diminish rapidly and disappear. As the
knob is moved toward the right, the amount of feedback
will increase, and the delay will continue repeating longer.
* VOCAL MIX
[VOCAL MIX]
Specify the amount of the consonants which will be extract-
ed from the sound before it is input to the Vocal Input of the
Voice Modulator, and combined with the output sound of
the Voice Modulator. As the slider is raised, a greater
amount of the extracted consonants will be mixed into the
output sound.
If you want the output sound of the Voice Modulator to be
distinct, raise the slider toward the upper range.
VOICE MODULATOR RESONANCE 0–127
[RESONANCE]
Raising the slider will cause the sound in the regions of each
of the twelve band pass filters to be emphasized simultane-
ously, producing a distinctive character.
Normally you will leave this slider in the lowest position.
Raise the slider only when you wish to give the sound a dis-
tinctive character.

0–127 * As the slider is raised, the volume will increase. To
avoid excessive volume which could damage your amp
or speaker, be careful not to raise the slider excessively.
Cautions when using Vocal Morph Control
If the Voice Modulator resonance value is increased, the
detection sensitivity of the vocal morph control will also
0–127
increase. This means that the output of the vocal morph
control will rapidly reach the maximum value, and you
may have difficulty in creating subtle changes.
In such cases, reduce the Vocal Morph Sensitivity (p.111).
When the Voice Modulator Resonance is 0, the Vocal Morph
Sensitivity should normally be +32 or -32, but if you have
0–127
increased the Voice Modulator Resonance, you should set
this in the range of +10–+20 or -10– -20.
* VOICE MODULATOR RELEASE
(Voice Modulator Envelope Release Time)
[RELEASE]
Specify the time until the Voice Modulator output sound
disappears. Rotating the knob toward the right will length
the time.
* VOCAL HOLD
(Vocal Hold Switch)
[VOCAL HOLD]
If you turn this button on while a voice is being input to the
Vocal Input, the analyzed result of the input sound at the
moment the button was pressed will be held. Subsequently,
0–127
the formant filter effect will be applied even if a voice is no
longer input.
Pressing this button when no voice is being input to the
Vocal Input will have no effect.
* When Hold-1 (CC#64) is received on the Performance
Control Channel (p.124), it will have the same result as if
the Vocal Hold Switch had been turned on.
* The on/off setting of the Vocal Hold Switch cannot be
stored in a performance. When you select a perfor-
mance, this switch will always be in the "off" condition.
* If the algorithm (p.108) is set to "FLT BANK WIDE" or
"FLT BANK NARROW," the Vocal Hold Switch will be
forced "off."
