Feature Reference

5: Amplitude

• Key scaling can be applied to the Total Amplitude Level parameter. Press the
¶ button ("KSC") to go directly to the key scaling page. You can return to
the amplitude parameter page by pressing the ] button.
Total Amplitude Level
≤
0 ... 127.
Sets the final output level of the selected Element, after mixing. The higher the
value the higher the level.
Total amplitude level key scaling produces natural level variations across the range
of the keyboard by allowing different level offset values to be applied to each of eight
breakpoints set at appropriate keys.
The ¶ button ("Xfd") can be used to invert the curve of the Amplitude Key
•
Scaling for the other element when a 2-element voice is being edited to
produce a crossfade key scaling effect between elements ("Xfd" will not
appear when a 1-element voice is edited).
Level
≤
0 ... 127.
The "Level" parameter is linked to the main amplitude "Total Amplitude
Level" parameter, and sets the final output level of the selected Element, after mixing.
The higher the value the higher the level. This value also determines the main level on
which all key-scaled variations are based (indicated by a dotted line on the graph).
