A single Low Frequency Oscillator generator for all Algorithms. The LFO's depth of action on the Pitch, Amplitude and Filter is independently programmable
for each oscillator. LFO is a periodic (repeating) control source. It produces a low speed waveform (low frequency) that can be applied to various aspects
of the sound to cause patterns of cyclic change. Because of its periodic nature, the LFO can be used to create effects like Tremolo (cyclic amplitude
modulation), Vibrato (cyclic pitch modulation) or, for example, "Wah-wah" (applied to the filter cutoff- frequency).
Selects the waveform of the low frequency oscillation. Given the low
frequency of the oscillation, the waveform is clearly perceptible. You can
choose from the following waves: Sinus, Triangle; Saw, Square, Random,
Sample/Hold. Sine Triangle Saw-tooth Square Random Sample&Hold RATE:
Determines the velocity of the LFO. Values range: 1- 200.
Determines the delay before the entry of the LFO. Entry of the LFO is
gradual. Value range: 0- 64.
When set to ON, the LFO is Synchronized for all the notes played. When set
to MIDI, the LFO is tied to the MIDI Clock. Values range: Off, On, MIDI.
PITCH S.O.1 & S.O.2
Applies LFO to the Pitch to produce a Vibrato effect on the selected
oscillator. This parameter determines the modulation depth of LFO on Pitch.
Positive and negative values indicate an opposed sense of vibration at the
starting phase (upwards or downwards respectively). Values range:+/-7. 0
= no effect.
Valid for all Algorithms. In Dual situations, regardless of whether the Filters are connected in series or in parallel, there is only one pan envelope for both
waveforms (oscillators). The position of the sound in the "stereo panorama" can be controlled dynamically by means of the Pan envelope divided in two
parts: the "Pan Key On Envelope" and the "Pan Key Off Envelope.
ENVELOPE AMOUNT
Activates the Pan Envelope and determines its depth of action. Value range
0-7. 0 = no envelope.
ENV AMOUNT DYN SENSITIVITY
Links the envelope amount to key velocity variations. Positive values increase
the envelope amount by increasing the key velocity while negative values act
inversely with increased key velocity. Value range:+/-7. 0 = no response.
ENV AMOUNT TOUCH SENSITIVITY
Links the envelope amount to variations in the Aftertouch pressure. Positive
values increase the envelope amount by increasing the Aftertouch pressure,
while negative values act inversely with increased Aftertouch. Value range:
+/-7. 0 = no response.

TOUCH PITCH S.O.1 & S.O.2
Links the depth of the Pitch modulation to Aftertouch pressure. By applying
aftertouch pressure to the keys, the "Delay" parameter is ignored and the
oscillation starts immediately. Positive and negative values indicate an
opposed sense of vibration at the starting phase (upwards or downwards
respectively). Values range:+/-. 0 = no effect.
TOUCH FILT S.O.1 & S.O.2
Links the depth of the Filter modulation to Aftertouch pressure. By applying
aftertouch pressure to the keys, the "Delay" parameter is ignored and the
oscillation starts immediately (toggles between open and closed filter). The
positive and negative values indicate an opposed sense of "opening" and
"closing", otherwise, the choice between a positive or negative value give
perfectly equivalent results. Higher positive or negative values increase the
Filter modulation depth. Values range:+/-7. 0 = no effect.
PAN
ENV. AMOUNT TOUCH SENS.: PAN DYNAMIC SENSITIVITY
Links the sensitivity of the Pan envelope to key velocity variations. Positive
values move the sound further right by increasing the key velocity while
negative values act inversely with increased key velocity. Value range:+/-7.
0 = no response.
ENV. AMOUNT TOUCH SENS.: PAN DYNAMIC SENSITIVITY
Links the sensitivity of the Pan envelope to variations in the Aftertouch
pressure. Positive values move the sound further right by increasing the
Aftertouch pressure, while negative values act inversely with increased
Aftertouch. Value range:+/-7. 0 = no response.
NOTE
Tracking curves and envelopes have the same screen and
parameters as the amplitude in the previous chapter.
