2–5b: Level Mod. (Level Modulation)
These settings allow the pitch EG "L (Level parameters)" to
be controlled by alternate modulation.
AMS1 (Level Mod. AMS1)
Selects the source that will control the pitch EG "L (Level
parameters)" (☞p.152 "AMS List").
I (AMS1 Intensity)
Specifies the depth and direction of the effect applied by
"AMS1 (Level Mod. AMS1)."
With a setting of 0, the levels specified by "Pitch EG" (2–5a)
will be used.
If "AMS1" is set to Velocity, increasing the absolute value of
"Intensity" will produce increasingly wider change in pitch
EG levels for strongly-played notes. The direction of the
change is specified by "S (AMS1 SW Start)" and "A (AMS1
SW Attack)." As you play more softly, the pitch change will
draw closer to the pitch EG levels.
X50:
For example if "AMS1 (Level Mod. AMS1)" is set to
SW1 #80 and 7–3b: SW1/2 Assign "SW1" is set to SW1 Mod.
(CC#80), turning [SW1] on will change the Pitch EG "Level."
Increasing the absolute value of "I (AMS1 Intensity)" will
produce a greater change in the pitch EG level when [SW1]
is turned on. The direction of the change is specified by "S
(AMS1 SW Start)" and "A (AMS1 SW Attack)." If [SW1] is
off, the levels specified by the pitch EG settings will be used.
microX:
For example if "AMS1 (Level Mod. AMS1)" is set
to FootSW #82 and Global 0–3a "Foot SW Assign" is set to
Foot SW (CC#82), receiving CC#82 or turning on the pedal
switch will change the Pitch EG "Level." Increasing the
absolute value of "I (AMS1 Intensity)" will produce a
greater change in the pitch EG level when the pedal switch
is turned on. The direction of the change is specified by "S
(AMS1 SW Start)" and "A (AMS1 SW Attack)." If the pedal
switch is off, the levels specified by the pitch EG settings will
be used.

A note played strongly with
set at 0, "A" set to +, and
"S" set to 0, "A" set to +, and
SW1 turned off (the settings

of 2–5a: Pitch EG)
S (AMS1 SW Start)
Specifies the direction of change in "S (Start Level)" caused
by "AMS1 (Level Mod. AMS1)." If "I (AMS1 Intensity)" is a
positive (+) value, a setting of + will raise the EG level, and
a setting of – will decrease it. With a setting of 0 there will be
no change.
A (AMS1 SW Attack)
Specifies the direction of change in "A (Attack Level)"
caused by "AMS1 (Level Mod. AMS1)." If "I (AMS1 Inten-
sity)" is a positive (+) value, a setting of + will raise the EG
level, and a setting of – will decrease it. With a setting of 0
there will be no change.

Refer to the preceding paragraphs "AMS1 (Level Mod.
AMS1)"–"A (AMS1 SW Attack)."
2–5c: Time Mod. (Time Modulation)
These parameters let you use alternate modulation to con-
trol the "T (Time parameters)" of the pitch EG.
AMS (Time Mod. AMS)
Indicates the source that will control the "T (Time parame-
ters)" of the pitch EG (☞p.152 "AMS List").
I (AMS Intensity)
Specifies the depth and direction of the effect that "AMS
(Time Mod. AMS)" will have.
With a setting of 0, the pitch EG times will be just as speci-
fied by the "Pitch EG" (2–5a) settings.
The alternate modulation value at the moment that the EG
reaches each point will determine the actual value of the EG
time that comes next.
For example, the decay time will be determined by the alter-
nate modulation value at the moment that the attack level is
reached.
When this parameter is set to values of 16, 33, 49, 66, 82, or
99, the specified EG times will speed up as much as 2, 4, 8,
16, 32, or 64 times respectively (or slowed down to 1/2, 1/4,
1/8, 1/16, 1/32, or 1/64 of the original time).
For example if "AMS (Time Mod. AMS)" is set to Velocity,
increasing the absolute value of "I (AMS Intensity)" will
allow strongly-played notes to increase the changes in pitch
EG "T (Time parameters)" values. The direction of the change
is specified by "A (AMS SW Attack)" and "D (AMS SW
Decay)." As you play more softly, the pitch EG times will
more closely approach the actual settings of the pitch EG.

A (AMS SW Attack)
Specifies the direction in which "AMS (Time Mod. AMS)"
will affect the "A (Attack Time)." With positive (+) values of
"I (AMS Intensity)," a setting of + will cause the time to be
lengthened, and a setting of – will cause the time to be short-
ened. With a setting of 0 there will be no change.
D (AMS SW Decay)
Specifies the direction in which "AMS (Time Mod. AMS)"
will affect the "D (Decay Time)." With positive (+) values of
"I (AMS Intensity)," a setting of + will cause the time to be
lengthened, and a setting of – will cause the time to be short-
ened. With a setting of 0 there will be no change.
