SOUND SOURCE AND CONTROLLERS
The JV-80
has a
buiil-in
sound
source
that
provides the sonic "building blocks"
for the
sound.
The
keyboard and other various
controllers
(such as the sliders
and
pedals), are used
to
control the
sound
source, resulting
in
the
final
sound
output.
The
sound source and
the
controiiers
of
the
JV-80
are
shown
in
the illustration
below.

This
is
used
to
play the sounds.
It
also
lets
you
continuously change
the
various elements
of the sound
according
to
how
hard
you
strike a
key
(velocity)
and
how
strongly
you
press
down
on
a key
after
it
has
been
pressed
(aftertouch). Effects such as vibrato
and
pitch
bend can be obtained depending on
the
settings.
The
pitch
alone can be changed by
moving
the lever laterally (to the right and
left).
Pressing
the lever
forward
lets
you
continuously change
various aspects of the sound. Generally,
this
is
used
to
apply
effects
such
as vibrato and tremolo.
