4. Voice Editing & Effects For the programmer who wants to get serious about voice programming, the SY85 offers an extensive range of parameters that allow extremely fine control. All parameters are discussed in detail in the Feature Reference manual VOICE EDIT section (page 57), and we recommend that the dedicated programmer study the Feature Reference manual carefully before embarking on any major voicing projects.

For the programmer who wants to get serious about voice programming, the
SY85 offers an extensive range of parameters that allow extremely fine control.
All parameters are discussed in detail in the Feature Reference manual VOICE
EDIT section (page 57), and we recommend that the dedicated programmer
study the Feature Reference manual carefully before embarking on any major
voicing projects. The SY85’s dual-processor effect system is also quite com-
plex, allowing detailed effect setups to be programmed for each voice. The
effect system is described in detail in the feature Reference manual (page 254).
For now, however, let’s see how you can create a new voice quickly and easily
using the VOICE QUICK EDIT mode.
1.
Select a Voice
In the VOICE PLAY mode, select the voice you want to edit using the
normal voice selection procedure.
2.
Press [QUICK EDIT]
Press the SUB MODE [QUICK EDIT] key to engage the voice quick edit
mode.
3.
Select and Set the WAVE Parameters
If it doesn’t appear immediately when the QUICK EDIT mode is engaged,
use the PAGE [
] and [
] keys to locate the “QED WAVE” screen.
These parameters provide a fast, easy way to select a new AWM wave for
the current voice, and automatically set the main amplitude envelope generator
parameters to values that produce good results with the selected wave.
For fast, easy selection of the preset SY85 waves, the “Group” parameter,
edited via [CS2], selects 16 different wave categories or “groups”, each con-
taining a number of waves that can be individually selected by using the
“Number” parameter.
