Ring Modulation
This multiplies the modulator and carrier and outputs
the signal produced. One of four types of waveform
can be selected as the carrier.
Since the result will be a metallic sound with little
sense of pitch, this is suitable for producing sound
effects. The Ring Modulation oscillator contains an
internal carrier oscillator. The output of the other
oscillator etc. can be selected as the modulator.
By modifying the pitch of the oscillator, you can
produce characteristic ring modulation effects.
1–3a
1–3b
1–3a: Wave
Input
[OSC 2(1), Sub OSC, Noise, Filter1, Filter2]
Specifies the modulator.
If Ring Modulation is selected for both OSC 1
and 2, and the input of the other is selected for
each, some parameter settings may produce no
sound.
Carrier
[Saw, Square, Triangle, Sine]
Specifies the carrier waveform.
Wave Edge
[0…99]
Specifies the amount of high frequency harmonics for
the carrier waveform. As this value is decreased, the
sound will have less high-frequency harmonics, and as
it approaches 0 the volume will also decrease.
Type
[1, 2]
Selects the modulation type. The two types differ in
the tone of the high range. Type 2 will produce a
brighter sound than type 1.
1–3b: Modulation Depth
Depth
[0…99]
Specifies the depth of modulation. At a setting of 0,
the carrier waveform will be output without change.
AMS1 (Alternate Modulation Source 1)
[Off…MIDI:CC#83]
Selects a modulation source 1 (
☞
p.48 of this manual)
that will control “Depth.”
Intensity (Modulation Depth AMS1 Intensity)
[–99…+99]
Specifies the depth and direction of the effect of
“AMS1.”
AMS2 (Alternate Modulation Source 2)
[Off…MIDI:CC#83]
Selects a modulation source 2 (
☞
p.48 of this manual)
that will control “Depth.”
Intensity (Modulation Depth AMS2 Intensity)
[–99…+99]
Specifies the depth and direction of the effect of
“AMS2.”
