5: Amplitude & Filter
• Two display pages are provided for Amplitude & Filter control. One contains
parameters pertaining to keyboard velocity sensitivity ("Sens"), while the
other contains the envelope generator parameters ("EG"). The ¡ and ™
buttons select these two display pages, respectively.
• An inverse "K"(˚) next to a value in the "EG" page means that key scaling
can be applied to that parameter. Position the cursor at the appropriate param-
eter and then press the ¶ button ("KSC") to go directly to the key scaling
page for that parameter. You can return to the growl parameter page by
pressing the ] button.
The parameters in the "Sens" page determine how the envelope settings in the
"Env" are affected by keyboard velocity.
Velocity Sens To Level
Determines the relationship between the Amplitude & Filter envelope level and
keyboard velocity. When set to "0", keyboard velocity (i.e. how fast or hard the keyboard
is played) has no effect on the envelope level. At values higher than "1", however, high
keyboard velocities will increase the envelope level and low keyboard velocities will
decrease the envelope level. The higher the value the greater the effect of keyboard
velocity on the envelope level.
Velocity Sens To Rate
Determines the relationship between the Amplitude & Filter envelope rates and
keyboard velocity. When set to "0", keyboard velocity (i.e. how fast or hard the keyboard
is played) has no effect on the envelope rates. At values higher than "1", however, high
