83 DeepMind 12D User Manual 8.6 VCA The VOLTAGE CONTROLLED AMPLIFIER (VCA) is split into two stages. The first is a per-voice stereo VCA which can be modulated by the VCA ENVELOPE, the PAN-SPREAD setting, the VELOCITY SENSITIVITY of the keyboard, and the Pan Destination in the Mod Matrix. The second stage is a common VCA, used to correct, or compensate the level so that it is consistent between programs. Both stages use a voltage to control the amount of signal passed through to the next stage. The higher the control voltage, the more of the signal will be passed. The per-voice VCA Level is also available in the Mod Matrix as a destination where it can be modulated from any of the Mod Matrix sources. 8.6.1 LEVEL 8.6.2 VCA EDIT MENU 1.

VCA
The VOLTAGE CONTROLLED AMPLIFIER (VCA) is split into two stages. The first
is a per-voice stereo VCA which can be modulated by the VCA ENVELOPE, the
PAN-SPREAD setting, the VELOCITY SENSITIVITY of the keyboard, and the Pan
Destination in the Mod Matrix.
The second stage is a common VCA, used to correct, or compensate the level so
that it is consistent between programs.
Both stages use a voltage to control the amount of signal passed through to the
next stage. The higher the control voltage, the more of the signal will be passed.
The per-voice VCA Level is also available in the Mod Matrix as a destination
where it can be modulated from any of the Mod Matrix sources.
8.6.1
LEVEL
•
The VCA LEVEL fader controls the second stage of the VCA, that is, how much
amplification or attenuation is applied to the summed voice signals.
The VCA LEVEL range is from -12.0 dB to 6.0 dB, and the default is
0.0 dB (Off).
The fader position, current value and stored value for the VCA LEVEL fader is
shown on the PROG screen. There is also a visualization of the position as
shown below:
8.6.2
VCA EDIT MENU
1.
To access the VCA PARAMETERS menu, press the VCA EDIT switch.
2.
The VCA EDIT switch will then start flashing, and the VCA PARAMETERS menu
will appear.
3.
To navigate the options in the VCA PARAMETERS menu, use the BANK/UP or
BANK/DOWN switches.
4.
Selected parameters are adjusted using the -/NO or +/YES switches, the
rotary knob or the DATA ENTRY fader. The rotary knob has a click which
allows very accurate control. The fader allows rapid adjustment across the
full range.
The following options are available in the VCA PARAMETERS menu:
•
ENVELOPE-DEPTH
- This option allows you to control how much the VCA
ENVELOPE will be used to modulate the per voice VCA.
This is the primary method to sculpt the shape of a sound. For more
information please consult the section on the VCA ENVELOPE.
The ENVELOPE-DEPTH range is from 0 to 255, and the default setting is 255.
•
VELOCITY-SENS
- This option allows you to control how much the velocity at
which you strike the keys will affect the per-voice VCA. The harder you strike
the keys, then the louder the sound, and the softer you strike the keys, then
the quieter the sound will be.
The VELOCITY-SENS range is from 0 to 255, and the default setting is 128.
•
PAN-SPREAD
- This option allows you to control how much the individual
voices will be spread across the stereo image.
The PAN-SPREAD range is from -128 to +127, and the default setting is 0.
•
VCA-MODE
- This option allows you to switch between the VCA mode
"BALLSY," and the "TRANSPARENT" mode with reduced VCA Level.
