(1) Pitch
Function
Set the amount of vibrato depth regulated by the
breath controller.
Setting

Explanation
This allows you to regulate vibrato depth using the
breath controller. As you blow into the breath con-
troller, the depth of vibrato will increase. When the
setting is 0, the breath controller will have no effect,
and when the setting is 99, it will have maximum effect.
Note:
Unless the sensitivity "P Mod Sens" setting (see page
43) is raised, raising this setting will have no effect.
If you do not want to control vibrato depth using
the breath controller, set this to 0.
(2) Amplitude
Function

Setting
0 – 99
Explanation
This allows you to regulate tremolo or wah using the
breath controller. As you blow into the breath con-
troller, the amount of tremolo or wah will increase.
When the setting is 0, the breath controller will have
no effect, and when the setting is 99, it will have
maximum effect.
Note:
Unless the (SENSITIVITY) AMS setting is
raised, and the AME of the appropriate operators is
on, raising this setting will have no effect (see page
43).
If you do not want to control tremolo or wah
using the breath controller, set this to 0.
(3) Pitch bias
Function
Set how the breath controller will affect pitch.
Setting
– 5 0 – + 5 0
Explanation
This allows you to directly affect the pitch by how
hard you blow into the breath controller. When the
setting is 0, the breath controller will have no effect.
When the setting is – 1– – 50 blowing into the breath
controller will lower the pitch, and when the setting
is +1 – + 50 blowing into the breath controller will
raise the pitch. The maximum range of pitch change
is approximately + / – 4 octaves.
Note:
If you do not want the breath controller to affect the
pitch, set this to 0.
(4) EG bias
Function
Set how the breath controller will affect volume or
tone.
Settings
0 – 99
Explanation
This allows you to affect the output level of the op-
erators by how hard you blow into the breath con-
troller. For a setting of 0, the breath controller will
have no effect, and for a setting of 99, it will have
maximum effect.
