Harmonic Enhancer

Hrm CC No. (Harmonic Enhancer Control Change Number)
.................................................................................................. Settings: off ... 95, AT, VEL, PB
The Harmonic Enhancer can vary the harmonic structure of the sound over a wide range. The
"Hrm CC No." parameter specifies the controller to be used for harmonic enhancer depth (wet/
dry balance) control. When set to "off" no harmonic enhancer depth variation can be applied via a
controller.
• Since most VL voices have sufficient natural harmonic content, the Harmonic Enhancer is actually only used
HrmCtrlDpt (Harmonic Enhancer Control Depth) ............................... Settings: -64 ... +63
Sets the amount of variation produced by the controller assigned to the harmonic enhancer. The
higher the value the greater the variation. Positive values cause an increase in harmonic enhancer
depth in response to higher controller values (e.g. increased breath pressure or higher modulation
wheel position), while minus values cause a decrease in harmonic enhancer depth in response to
higher controller values.

Damping
Dmp CC No. (Damping Control Change Number) ............ Settings: off ... 95, AT, VEL, PB
"Damping" simulates the effect of damping due to losses within the body of a wind instrument or
in a string due to air friction. Affects both pitch and timbre. The "Dmp CC No." parameter speci-
fies the controller to be used for damping control. When set to "off" no damping variation can be
applied via a controller.
• Please note that accurate keyboard pitch is produced only when damping is maximum.

on a few voices. Therefore changing the controller destination with many voices will produce either no change
in the sound or a simple change in amplitude.
