Awm Output - Yamaha SY77 Operating Manual

VOICE EDIT MODE
In hold mode the AWM EG level will begin at
maximum and stay mere for the duration of the
specified hold time HT. When the hold time has
elapsed, the level will change at the rate of R2 to
level L2. The rest of the EG is the same as for
normal mode.
Using the AWM EG in hold mode is espe-
cially effective when you are using an AWM
waveform which includes a definite attack.
Keeping the level at maximum for a while allows
the natural attack of the AWM sample to be
heard. After the natural sampled attack is over
the AWM waveform will continue sustaining,
and you can use the remaining AWM EG
parameters to create an appropriate decay and
release.
Rate 4 and Release Rate: Rate 4 (R4) and
Release Rate (RR) can be used in conjunction to
create a variety of AWM EG shapes.
If R4 is greater than 0 and you continue holding a
note, after me level reaches L3 it will decrease
at the rate R4 and will move to 0 even though
you continue holding the note.
If R4=0 and you continue holding a note, after
the level reaches L3 it will stay at L3 as long as
you hold the note. When you release the note,
the level will decrease at the rate of RR to a
level of 0.

After reaching L3 the level will decrease at the
rate R4, but when you release the note the level
will begin decreasing at me rate RR.
notes have a naturally shorter attack and decay.
This can be simulated by setting rate scaling to
a positive value (+1...+7). The following dia-
gram shows how higher notes will have faster
rates (shorter EGs). Negative settings will
have the opposite effect.
