Tracks are the equivalent of re- corder tracks (with the associated mixer channels). In fact, Havian 30 does include a recorder and a digital mixer! Assigning single Sounds to tracks simplifies the way you can mix and record them.

Style Elements The term ‘Style’ relates with music sequences automatically played by the Havian 30’s arranger. A Style consists of a predefined number of Style Elements (Intro, Variation, Fill, Ending…). When playing, most of these Style Elements can be directly selected by using the corresponding buttons on the control panel.

194| Recording the Styles What happens when you play a chord… To summarize, when you play a chord on the chord recognition area, the arranger determines which Style Element is used, then determines which Chord Variation should be used for the played chord, then Style sequenc- es for every track of that Chord Variation are transposed from the original chord to the recognized chord, and so on every time you play a chord.

If you copy too many events on the same tick, the “Too many events!” mes- sage appears, and the copy operation is aborted. When you copy over an existing Chord Variation, Program Change data is not copied, to leave the original Sounds unchanged for that Chord Variation.

Modulating pitch |355 Controlling the LFO Use the LFO 1/2 parameters to controls the LFO (Low Frequency Oscillation) on the selected oscillators. LFO generators are programmed in the Sound Edit > LFO > LFO 1 LFO 2 pages. ▪ Use the LFO 1/2 Int parameter to set the intensity (-12…0…+12) of the cor- responding LFO.

356| Editing the Sounds Programming the pitch envelope (Pitch EG) Havian 30 includes a pitch envelope generator (Pitch EG) that can vary the pitch over time. ▪ Go to the Sound > Pitch > Pitch EG page. You can see the shape of the envelope in the diagram on top of the page.
Page 361
Programming the pitch envelope (Pitch EG) |357 The actual amount of pitch change will depend on the Pitch EG > Intensity parameters (see the Sound > Pitch > Pitch Mod page). For example, with an Intensity setting of +12.00, a Level setting of +99 would raise the pitch one octave, and a Level setting of –99 would lower the pitch one octave.
Page 362
358| Editing the Sounds If the Intensity is a positive (+) value, a setting of + will increase the EG level, and a setting of – will decrease it. With a setting of 0 there will be no change. Pitch EG change (level) (AMS=JS-Y/Velocity, Intensity= positive (+) value Note-on Note-on Note-on...

360| Editing the Sounds Programming the filters As in a subtractive analogue synthesizer, filters are the main agents of the sound’s timbre quality. Envelope and modulation allow for timbral shift over time, making the sound alive. Choosing the filters You can choose one of two filters for the selected oscillator. ▪...
Page 365
Programming the filters |361 Trimming the filter input ▪ Use the Trim parameter (00…99) to adjust the level at which the audio signal generated by the selected oscillator is input to filter A. If this value is too high, the sound may distort when Resonance is set to a high value, or when you play a chord.
Page 366
362| Editing the Sounds With positive (+) values, the resonance will increase as you play more strong- ly, and as you play more softly the resonance will approach the level speci- fied by the Resonance setting. With negative (–) values, the resonance will decrease as you play more strongly, and as you play more softly the resonance will approach the level specified by the Resonance setting.
Page 367
Modulating the filters |363 Modulating the filters You can modulate the filter cutoff frequency of the selected oscillator. Modulation will add dynamic timbre variation.

Modulating the filters |365 ▪ Use the pop-up menu to select a modulation source for the filter EG applied to the cutoff frequency of filters A and B. ▪ Use the Int to A/B parameters (-99…+99) to specify the depth and direction of the effect that the AMS will have on filter A/B.
Page 370
366| Editing the Sounds Applying LFO to the filters You can use LFO to apply cyclic modulation to the cutoff frequency of the filters. This will create cyclical changes in tone on the selected oscillator. ▪ Go to the Sound > Filter > Filter LFO Mod page.
Page 371
Modulating the filters |367 For example if the AMS is Joystick Y+, higher settings of this parameter will allow greater change to be applied to LFO 1/2 when you move the Joystick up in the Y axis.
Page 372
368| Editing the Sounds Programming the filter envelope (Filter EG) You can create an envelope to vary over time the cutoff frequency of the filters on the selected oscillator. ▪ Go to the Sound > Filter > Filter EG page. You can see the shape of the envelope in the diagram on top of the page.
Page 373
Programming the filter envelope (Filter EG) |369 ▪ Use the Level parameters (-99…+99) to specify the amount of cutoff fre- quency change. EG Level Meaning Start Change in cutoff frequency at the time of note-on. Attack Change in cutoff frequency after the attack time has elapsed. Break (Break Point) Change in cutoff frequency after the decay time has elapsed.

372| Editing the Sounds Programming amplitude and pan You can program the amplitude and pan of each oscillator. Amplitude is the volume of the oscillators. Pan is the position of the oscillators in the stereo panorama. With amplitide envelope you can make the sound volume vary over time.
Page 377
Programming amplitude and pan |373 Setting the pan’s basic position ▪ Use the Pan parameter to set the stereo position (panorama) of the selected oscillator. This parameter is not available when editing a Drum Kit. Use the individual Pan control for each key instead. Meaning Random The sound will be heard from a different location at each note-on.
Page 378
374| Editing the Sounds Modulating amplitude Modulating the amplitude level of each oscillator makes the sound alive and ever-changing. ▪ Go to the Sound > Amp > Amp Mod page. Tracking the amplitude across the keyboard Use the Keyboard Track parameters to adjust the volume of the selected oscillator across the keyboard.
Page 379
Modulating amplitude |375 Here is an example of volume changes produced by keyboard location and Ramp settings: Volume Ramp Low=+99 Ramp High=+99 Ramp Low=0 Ramp High=0 Ramp Low=–99 Ramp High=–99 Key Low Key High Modulating amplitude Use the Amp Modulation parameters to specify how the volume of the se- lected oscillator will be affected by velocity.

376| Editing the Sounds axis. However if the EG settings etc. have already raised the volume to its maximum level, the volume cannot be increased further. With negative (–) values of this parameter, the volume will decrease when pressure is applied to the keyboard. Modulating amplitude with the LFOs LFO is a cyclic modulation.

378| Editing the Sounds ▪ Use the Time parameters (0…99) to specify the time over which the volume level is reached. EG Time Meaning Attack Time over which the volume will change after note-on until it reaches the attack level. If the start level is 0, this will be the rise time of the sound.
Page 383
Programming the amplitude envelope (Amp EG) |379 When Intensity has a positive (+) value, a setting of + for this parameter will allow the AMS to raise the EG level, and a setting of – will allow AMS to lower the EG level.

Limiter |611 Limiter, Master EQ Limiter The Limiter allows for an increased loudness of the Sounds (Keyboard, Styles and MIDI Songs), by compressing the signal exceeding a defined threshold. MP3 files are not affected by the Limiter (since they are usually already ‘pro- duced’, and do not need to pass through the Limiter again).
Page 616
612| Limiter, Master EQ Limiter Parameter Meaning Value Ratio Sets the signal compression ratio. Compression is applied only when the signal level exceeds the Threshold value. 1.0:1 means no compression. Threshold Sets the level above which compression is ap- plied. 0dB means no signal processed. Attack Sets the attack time.
