RS7000

Dump out

The process of transmitting bulk data as MIDI System

Exclusive messages.

Echo back

The action or process in which data received at the

MIDI IN connector is re-transmitted from the MIDI OUT

connector.

Edit

The action of modifying or editing data.

Effect

A circuit (device) that processes the sound to add vari-

ous effects.

The RS7000 provides 3 system effect stages (reverb,

delay/chorus and variation), as well as a range of mas-

ter effects.

Element

A block within the AWM2 tone generator that generates

a single sound. The voices of the RS7000 consist of 1

to 2 elements.

End Point

The point at which playback of a sample is set to stop.

Ensemble

An ensemble consists of two or more instruments play-

ing together. The RS7000 is capable of playing ensem-

bles consisting of up to 32 parts.

Envelope Generator (EG)

A circuit that modi

ﬁ

es the level of the tone generator

from the moment that a note is played until the sound

decays to silence. The AEG controls the volume, the

PEG controls the pitch, and the FEG controls the

ﬁ

lter.

Equalizer

A circuit or device that divides the frequency spectrum

into multiple bands which can be boosted or cut as

required to tailor the overall frequency response.

Event

A single piece of the data (such as Note On/Off or Pro-

gram Change messages) which makes up a sequence.

Exclusive

See the entry for System Exclusive.

Expression

A MIDI control change message used to control the vol-

ume of an individual track or part.

Filter

A circuit that modi

ﬁ

es tone by blocking or passing a

speci

ﬁ

c frequency range of the sound. The RS7000 has

ﬁ

lters for each voice element.

Formatting

The action of initializing a memory card or SCSI disk so

that it can be used by the RS7000.

Gate time

The length of time that a note actually sounds.

Groove

Refers to rhythmic

“

feel

”

. The RS7000 features a

Groove function which can be used to subtly (or dramat-

ically) alter the groove of a pattern or song.

Hertz

The standard unit of frequency de

ﬁ

ned as

“

cycles per

second

”

. The pitch of the A3 note on a piano is about

440 Hertz.

Hexadecimal

A system of numbering based on 16, in which the digits

increment in units of n-th powers of 16. The alphabetical

characters A ~ F are used to express the numbers 10 ~

15.
