5: Amplitude

Key scaling can be applied to the Amplitude Level parameter. Press the ¶
•
button ("KSC") to go directly to the key scaling page. You can return to the
amplitude parameter page by pressing the ] button.
Amplitude Level
Sets the final output level of the selected Element, after mixing. The higher the
value the higher the level.
Amplitude level key scaling produces natural level variations across the range of the
keyboard by allowing different level offset values to be applied to each of eight break-
points set at appropriate keys.
The ¶ button ("Xfd") can be used to invert the curve of the Amplitude Key
•
Scaling for the other element when a 2-element voice is being edited to
produce a crossfade key scaling effect between elements ("Xfd" will not
appear when a 1-element voice is edited).
Level
The "Level" parameter is linked to the main amplitude "Amplitude Level"
parameter, and sets the final output level of the selected Element, after mixing. The
higher the value the higher the level. This value also determines the main level on which
all key-scaled variations are based (indicated by a dotted line on the graph).
