NOTE: The currently selected Operator name is shown in the dark bar in the middle of the display. NOTE: The Algorithm type used is different depending on the voices. EDIT Page Name of the voice to be edited Operator Algorithm Envelope Parameters At the left side of the display is the Algorithm used for this voice. An algorithm is a kind of "map" that shows how the sound components of the voice are related to each other. Each voice has nine separate sound components and they are called "Operators," AWM Operator and FM Operators 1 through 8. 3 Begin changing the sound by turning off all Operators, except Operator 1. To turn off each Operator: 1 .First, use the pair of Data Control buttons just below the algorithm display (below the box 1; the second from the left) to select an Operator. The currently selected Operator number is surrounded by the "Brackets." Pressing the A button move the "Brackets" counter clockwise, 8 and pressing the B button move the "Brackets" clockwise. Move the "Brackets" to the Operator 2. 2. Then press one of the far left pair of Data Control buttons to turn the selected Operator off. Voice Edit NOTE: Although the Operators 5 through 8 are not shown in the same display, you can show them by moving the "Brackets" to the AWM operator or past the FM operator 4. Reverse display (dark box) indicates that the Operator is on; normal display indicates the Operator is off. The "Brackets" indicate the currently selected Operator. These buttons turn the selected Operator on and off. These buttons select the Operators in order. 3. Repeat the above process for all of the Operators except Operator 1. As you turn off each Operator, play the voice and listen to how the sound changes.B 108
