[. . . ] If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should consult an audiologist. 4) This product should be located away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, or other products that produce heat. 5) The power-supply cord on this product should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time. 6) Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings. [. . . ] If the LFO Speed is being modulated (by one of the envelopes, for example), the LFO's of each voice may be running at different speeds. This is identical to MONO, but whenever a new note is played, the LFO is retriggered, instead of continuing from wherever it may be in its cycle. This is almost identical to POLY, but whenever a new note is played, the LFO is retriggered, instead of continuing from wherever it may be in its cycle. Pitch LFO (Page 2) Level (00 to 99) This is the base output level of the Pitch LFO. If you want to have a constant value of vibrato, even without using the Mod Wheel or Aftertouch, set LEVEL above 00. The Mod Wheel and Aftertouch will add or subtract from this base level. Example: If Level is set to 10 and the Mod Wheel parameter is set to 10, there will always be some vibrato, and raising the Mod Wheel will add more vibrato. On the other hand, if the Mod Wheel parameter is set to -10, raising the Mod Wheel to the top will cancel out all vibrato. Mod Wheel (-99 to 99) This is the modulation amount of the Mod Wheel over the Pitch LFO's Level. A positive value raises the level when the Mod QuadraSynth Plus Piano Reference Manual 99 Editing Programs: Chapter 6 Wheel is moved up, and lowers the level when moved down. Negative settings of this parameter will decrease the output level of the PLFO as the Mod Wheel is raised. Since the output level of the PLFO cannot be less than zero, a negative setting of the Mod Wheel parameter will have no effect unless either the Aftertouch or the Level is set to raise the PLFO output. If both the Level and Aftertouch are set to 00, and the Mod Wheel parameter is set to 99, the Mod Wheel will have no effect on the vibrato from the PLFO. Aftertouch (-99 to 99) This is the modulation amount of Aftertouch over the Pitch LFO's Level. See the diagram in the Wave section of the PLFO description on page 67. Speed (00 to 99) Quad Knob [2] controls the speed or rate of the LFO. For fast modulation, increase this value. For slower modulation, decrease this value. Delay (00 to 99) This is the amount of time that is to occur before the LFO fades in. Sometimes, it is desirable to have modulation come in a moment or two after a note has been played, rather than starting instantly. The higher the value, the slower the LFO fades in. Trigger (Mono, Poly, Key Mono, Key Poly) The Trigger parameter determines how the LFO should be triggered, or started. There are four possible settings: Mono, QuadraSynth Plus Piano Reference Manual 102 Editing Programs: Chapter 6 Poly, Key Mono and Key Poly. A description of these settings is found in the Trigger section of the PLFO description on page 67. QuadraSynth Plus Piano Reference Manual 103 Editing Programs: Chapter 6 Amp LFO (Page 2) Level (00 to 99) This is the base output level of the Amp LFO. If you want to have a constant value of tremolo, even without using the Mod Wheel or Aftertouch, set LEVEL above 00. The Mod Wheel and Aftertouch will add or subtract from this base level. Example: If Level is set to 10 and the Mod Wheel parameter is set to 10, there will always be some tremolo, and raising the Mod Wheel will add more tremolo. On the other hand, if the Mod Wheel parameter is set to -10, raising the Mod Wheel to the top will cancel out all tremolo. Mod Wheel (-99 to 99) This is the modulation amount of the Mod Wheel over the Amp LFO's Level. [. . . ] Unlike a Start command, which re-starts a sequencer or drum machine from the beginning of a song each time it occurs, sending a continue message after stop will re-start units from where they were stopped. General MIDI General MIDI is an extension of the MIDI standard designed to meet the demands of the ever-growing multimedia industry, and to make simple the act of playing commercially produced MIDI sequences. The General MIDI standard utilizes all 16 channels available in MIDI. The QuadraSynth Plus is a perfect General MIDI companion, since its Mix Mode uses 16 channels. Although many channels are commonly used for specific types of instruments (Example: Channel 1 is usually piano, channel 2 is usually bass, etc. ), channel 10 is always used for drums. [. . . ]
