Knob 2 [ Turn] AEG Rate Scaling This setting determines how the AEG rates (attack, decay, and release rates) vary according to keyboard location (pitch) of the played note. Set the value to 0 to keep rates the same for all keyboard notes. Positive settings cause rates to increase as you move up the keyboard, while negative settings cause rates to decrease as you move up the keyboard. [Range] -7 - +7 [ Press] QUICK... Calls the quick entry menu (page 83). Knob 3 [ Turn] AEG Rate Velocity Sensitivity This value sets the AEG's velocity sensitivity: the amount by which the AEG rates (attack, decay, and release rates) vary in response to the velocity (force) of the played note. Set the value to 0 to keep rates the same for all velocities. Positive settings cause rates to increase as velocity increases, while negative settings cause rates to decrease as velocity increases. [Range] -63 - +63 [ Press] QUICK... Calls the quick entry menu (page 83). Knob 4 [ Turn] AEG Attack Mode This value sets the AEG attack mode - the way that amplitude behaves immediately following Note On. [Range] rate, hold, rate2 • rate ... Level starts at 0 (when Note On occurs) and rises to maximum, then begins to drop. • hold ... Level starts immediately at it maximum point and holds steady for a certain interval before beginning to drop (page 137). Note that the Attack Rate setting sets the timing for the attack. Higher Attack Rate settings produce a faster attack - so that the level rises more quickly (if the mode is set to rate) or holds steady for a shorter time before dropping (if the mode is set to hold). • This function can be useful in cases in which you want the natural attack envelope of the sample to be fully retained: use the hold mode to keep the level at maximum for the required time, then drop to the sustain level. • rate2 ... A variation of "rate." If AttackMode = rate: Level Maximum Level If AttackMode = hold: Level Maximum Level Attack Rate Note On Time Note Off Attack Rate Note On Time Note Off Filter EG [EDIT] Button → [F4] Button → Knob 1 to select "EDIT-FilterEG" Use this page to set up the sample's FEG (filter envelope generator). The FEG determines how the filter's cutoff frequency shifts over time as each note plays out. "Specified Cutoff Frequency" is the value set by the Cutoff parameter (page 134). • Filter-EG settings are not effective if the Filter Type parameter on the Fltr&EQ page (page 133) is set to Bypass.
