Fractional Scaling One of the most important aspects of DX7 voicing is Level Scaling, which allows adjustment of each operator's output over the range of the keyboard. The DX7s offers the possibility of even more subtle control over operator outputs, through Fractional Scaling. Fractional Scaling and Level Scaling Although the DX7's Level Scaling offers a great deal of interaction between timbre and frequency, Fractional Scaling offers even greater precision. The level can be set independently in groups of three notes, over the entire range of the keyboard. To provide even more control, the resolution of the level settings has been expanded from 0 ~ 99 to 0 ~ 255: Fractional Scaling allows you to adjust the output level of each operator for three-note groups.
