OSCILLATOR [VOICE] → [EDIT] → [MENU] → 1:Oscillator → [ENTER/YES] This screen contains 6 parameters that determine the fundamental sound of the voice being edited - including the number of the waveform on which the voice will be based. OSC``Wave``````Mode`Fine`Note`Rndm``Rvs` P244`Sin```````norm```+0```+0````0``off` F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 F7 F8 CS1 CS2 CS3 CS4 CS5 CS6 CS7 CS8 Wave Range: P001 ... P244, I00 ... I63, C00 ... C63 Controls: [CS1], [-1] [+1], Dial Selects the wave (AWM waveform) to be used in the current voice. Use the [INTERNAL 1], [INTERNAL 2], and [CARD] keys to select the memory area from which the wave is to be selected. Please note that when SIMM memory is wave memory installed, wave data can not be loaded into memory from a waveform card. A complete listing of the internal waves is given in the Appendix, on page 310. Mode Range: fix, norm Controls: [CS4], [-1] [+1], Dial Determines whether the selected wave is reproduced in the normal (variable pitch) or fixed-pitch mode. Normally you want the pitch of the AWM wave (or waves) used in a voice to be controllable from a keyboard or other type of controller, in which case the "norm" mode should be selected. In some cases - sound effects in particular - you might want the same pitch to be produced no matter what note you play on the keyboard or other controller. In this case, the "fix" mode is appropriate. The Note parameter described below can be used to set the note produced when the "fix" mode is selected. Fine Range: -63 ... 0 ... +63 Controls: [CS5], [-1] [+1], Dial Allows fine tuning of the selected AWM wave. Each increment corresponds to approximately 1.17 cents (a "cent" is 1/100th of a semitone) so the lowest setting (-63) shifts the pitch down by almost three quarters of a semitone, while the highest setting (+63) shifts the pitch up by the same amount. A setting of "+0" produces standard concert pitch (A3 = 440 Hertz). 58 VOICE EDIT MODE / 1:Oscillator
