On the Osc/Tune screen, you can set the general parameters for the Oscillator.
The modulation and wave shaping functions available on this screen are FM (Frequency Modulation), Ring Modulation, Oscillator Sync, Pulse Width, and Wave Shaper.
- [PERFORMANCE] → [EDIT/] → Part selection → Oscillator selection → Osc/Tune
Sets the waveform for the Oscillator. Settings: Saw1, Saw2 (variation of Saw1 with thicker sound), Square, Triangle, Sine
Sets the volume of the Oscillators. Settings: 0–511
Sets how the Oscillator volume responds to Velocity. Settings: −255–+0–+255
Performs negative/positive inversion of the Oscillator output. Settings: Off, On
Sets the output destination for the Oscillators. Settings: Filter, Amp
Sets the pitch of the Oscillator in octaves. Settings: 64’, 32’, 16’, 8’, 4’, 2’, 1’
Finely adjusts the pitch of the Oscillator. Settings: −1200–+0–+1200 (cent)
Modulates the frequency of the Oscillator by using another Oscillator.
Sets the level of the Frequency Modulation. Settings: 0–255
Sets how Frequency Modulation responds to Velocity. Settings: −255–+0–+255
By mixing two Oscillator signals, you can create a metallic inharmonic sound.
Sets the level of Ring Modulation. Settings: 0–255
Sets how Ring Modulation responds to Velocity. Settings: −255–+0–+255
Oscillator Sync is a system that creates complex waves by forcing two Oscillators to synchronize.
The AN-X sound engine allows each Oscillator to set its synchronization timing, so you can use a single Oscillator for creating complex waveforms.
Sets the level of the Oscillator Sync. Settings: 0–4800 (cents) (in units of 25 cents)
Sets how Sync Pitch responds to Velocity. Settings: −255–+0–+255
Pulse Width is the ratio of the negative and positive parts of the Square wave.
When Pulse Width is set to a small value
When Pulse Width is set to 50%
When Pulse Width is set to a large value
The AN-X sound engine lets you use Pulse Width not just on Square waves but also other waves.
Modulation of the LFO by using Pulse Width is called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), which allows you to create a characteristic swirling sound.
With the AN-X sound engine, you can use PWM by using Osc EG and Osc LFO, and you can specify the level of PWM on the Osc EG screen and Osc LFO screen.
Sets the Pulse Width of the wave. Settings: 1.0%–50.0%–99.0%
Sets how Pulse Width responds to Velocity. Settings: −255–+0–+255
Creates a characteristic distortion and changes to the harmonic content by changing the shape of the waveform.
Sets the level of the Wave Shaper.
By using Wave Shaper, the wave changes dynamically. Settings: 0–255
Sets how the Wave Shaper responds to Velocity. Settings: −255–+0–+255
Opens the General/Pitch → Pitch EG screen for Part Edit (AN-X).
Opens the General/Pitch → Pitch LFO screen for Part Edit (AN-X).
Opens the Osc EG screen for Oscillator Edit.
Opens the Osc LFO screen for Oscillator Edit.
On the Osc EG screen, you can set the Envelope Generator for the Oscillator.
You can set how the Sync, Pulse Width, and Wave Shaper change over time, starting from the moment you press a key on the keyboard to when the sound decays.
To set how the pitch changes over time, use Pitch EG.
- [PERFORMANCE] → [EDIT/] → Part selection → Oscillator selection → Osc EG
Sets the length of time it takes for the EG to change from the moment you press a key on the keyboard until it reaches the value set at the Attack Level. Settings: 0–255
Sets the length of time it takes for the EG to change from the moment you press a key on the keyboard until it reaches the value set at the Decay Level. Settings: 0–255
Sets the Sustain Level. Settings: 0–511
Sets the length of time for the EG to reach a value of 0 after you have released the key. Settings: 0–255
Sets how the Sync responds to Osc EG. Settings: −4800–+4800 (cent)
Sets how the Pulse Width responds to Osc EG. Settings: −127–+0–+127
Sets how the Shaper responds to Osc EG. Settings: −127–+0–+127
On the Osc LFO screen, you can set the Oscillator LFO.
- [PERFORMANCE] → [EDIT/] → Part selection → Oscillator selection → Osc LFO
Selects an LFO wave.
By using the wave you have selected here, you can create various types of modulation. Settings: Saw, Square, Triangle, Sine, Random
Resets the oscillation of the LFO when a key is pressed. Settings: Off, On
Sets the speed of LFO wave changes. Settings: 0–415
Sets the delay time between the moment you press a key on the keyboard and the moment the LFO comes into effect. Settings: 0–127
Sets the time length for the LFO effect to fade in after you have released the key and the delay time set in Delay has elapsed. Settings: 0–214
Sets the LFO phase for resetting the wave when a key is pressed. Settings: 0, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 135, 150, 180, 210, 225, 240, 270, 300, 315, 330 (°)
Sets how the Sync responds to Osc LFO. Settings: −4800–+4800 (cent)
