its key is pressed.

Description
Determines how Tone 1 and 2, and Tone 3 and 4
are connected.
* If Type 2–10 is selected, turning off one Tone will
cause the other Tone to be connected in the simple or-
der of WG/TVF/TVA.
The displayed symbols have the following mean-
ings.
B: Booster, R: Ring Modulator
[What is a Booster?]
A Booster amplifies the incoming signal, causing it
to distort. This creates an effect similar to the dis-
tortion often used on an electric guitar.
[What is a Ring Modulator?]
A Ring Modulator mathematically multiplies two
Tones, creating a new sound that includes inhar-
monic overtones that were not present in either of
the two original Tones.
Since the difference in pitch between the two
Tones changes the overtone structure, an un-
pitched "metallic" sound often results. Ring mod-
ulation is therefore especially suitable for creating
bells and other metallic sounds.
Sets the Booster strength when Structure Type has
been set to 3 or 4.
