[DATA ENTRY] control, [-1/NO] and [+1/YES]
keys/or numeric and [ENTER] keys to set the
level-scaling offset for the corresponding break-
point.
Details: Negative values reduce the level, and posi-
tive values increase the level at the correspond-
ing breakpoint. No matter what value is chosen,
the EG level will never exceed its maximum of
63.
When different offsets are set for adjacent
breakpoints, the level varies accordingly and
smoothly between the breakpoints.
SENSITIVITY (VELOCITY, AMPLITUDE & PITCH MODULATION)
Velocity Sensitivity
Summary: Determines how the output level of the
selected element changes in response to velocity
changes (e.g. keyboard dynamics).
Settings: -7 ... +7
Procedure: If the Velocity Sensitivity ("Vel." on
upper LCD line) parameter is not already se-
lected, use the
it. Use the [DATA ENTRY] control, [-1/NO] and
Velocity Rate Sensitivity ON/OFF
Summary: Determines whether overall envelope
length of the amplitude envelope generator for
the selected element will or will not be con-
trolled by velocity information.
Settings: on, off
Procedure: Use the
select the Velocity Rate Sensitivity parameter
and cursor keys to select
and cursor keys to

[+1/YES] keys, or numeric and [ENTER] keys to
select the required degree of velocity sensitiv-
ity.
Details: Plus "+" settings produce higher output
level in response to higher velocity values —
i.e. the harder a key is played, the louder the
sound. The maximum setting of "+7" produces
the maximum level variation in response to ve-
locity changes. Minus "-" settings produce the
opposite effect: lower level in response to higher
velocity. A setting of "+0" results in no level
variation. Make sure that the volume is turned
down when making "-" settings, or you may not
be able to hear the full effect.
("V.Rate"). Use the [DATA ENTRY] control or
[+1/YES] and [-1/NO] keys to select "on" or
"off."
Details: When this parameter is turned "on," higher
velocity values produce a faster attack rate.
When "off no envelope rate variation is pro-
duced.
