Using, Creating and Editing Voices Voice Creating (Sound Creator) The available parameters differ depending on the Voice. Editable Parameters in the SOUND CREATOR Displays The following covers in detail the editable parameters that are set in the displays explained in step 3 of the "Basic Procedure" on page 93. The Sound Creator parameters are organized into five different displays. The parameters in each display are described separately, below. These are also treated as part of the Voice Set parameters (page 100), which are automatically called up when the Voice is selected. PIANO This display is available only when the Natural! piano Voice (page 72) is selected. TUNING CURVE Determines the tuning curve. Select "FLAT" if you feel the tuning curve of the piano Voice does not quite match that of other instruments Voices. STRETCH Tuning curve particularly for pianos FLAT Tuning curve in which the frequency is octave doubled over the entire keyboard range KEY OFF SAMPLE Adjusts the volume of the key-off sound (the subtle sound that occurs when you release a key). SUSTAIN SAMPLE Adjusts the depth of sustain sampling for the damper pedal. STRING RESONANCE Adjusts the depth of string resonance. Portamento Time: The Portamento Time determines the pitch transition time. Portamento is a function that creates a smooth transition in pitch from the first note played on the keyboard to the next. COMMON VOLUME TOUCH SENSE PART OCTAVE MONO/POLY PORTAMENTO TIME Adjusts the volume of the current edited Voice. Adjusts the touch sensitivity, or how greatly the volume responds to your playing strength. A setting of "0" produces more extreme drops in level, the more softly you play, while a setting of "64" is normal response, and "127" produces high volume for any playing strength (fixed). Shifts the octave range of the edited Voice up or down in octaves. When the edited Voice is used as any of the RIGHT 1-2 parts, the R1/R2 parameter is available; when the edited Voice is used as the LEFT part, the LEFT parameter is available. Determines whether the edited Voice is played monophonically or polyphonically (page 80). Sets the portamento time when the edited Voice is set to "MONO" above. CONTROLLER 1. MODULATION When a pedal function is assigned to MODULATION, the pedal can be used to modulate the parameters below as well as the pitch (vibrato). Here, you can set the degree to which the pedal modulates each of the following parameters. FILTER Determines the degree to which the pedal modulates the Filter Cutoff Frequency. For details about the filter, see page 95. AMPLITUDE Determines the degree to which the pedal modulates the amplitude (volume). LFO PMOD Determines the degree to which the pedal modulates the pitch, or the vibrato effect. LFO FMOD Determines the degree to which the pedal modulates the Filter modulation, or the wah effect. LFO AMOD Determines the degree to which the pedal modulates the amplitude, or the tremolo effect. 94 CVP-309/307 Owner's Manual
