10.5.4 Velocity

With the options in the Velocity Table you can determine how particular parameters can be
influenced via velocity values communicated via MIDI, that is to say, the force with which you
hit the note. You can determine, for example, that a note struck loudly increases the frequency
of a filter and as a result not only changes the volume of the tone, but also its characteristics.
For every parameter you can set the percentage value in Depth% control around which the
velocity values can change the value of the parameter. With the Inversion switch (abbreviated
Inv) you can reverse the velocity values so that a soft stroke on the key results in a strong
change of the parameter, but a stronger stroke on the key only induces a slight change.
Further parameters can be added to the velocity table by selecting the desired parameters
from Add Parameter menu in the title line of the Velocity Table.

10.6 Note Page

Note page
On the Note page you can establish how much a parameter is modulated depending on the
played note. That is, you can establish an individual relationship between the modulated pa-
rameter and every key on your keyboard. You can make a Filter open wider for higher notes.
Three groups of parameters can be modulated dependently of notes:
•
Oscil Amp A, B, C: are the volume envelopes of the Main Oscillator in the three Oscillator
Modules.
•
Oscil FM Index/Balance A, B, C: controls the ratio between the channels' main oscillators
and their modulation oscillators.
