Amplitude Modulation Sensitivity
Summary: Determines the sensitivity of the se-
lected element to amplitude modulation (trem-
olo effect) applied via the low-frequency oscil-
lator (LFO) and appropriate controllers.
Settings: -7 ... +7
Procedure: Use the and cursor keys to
select the Amplitude Modulation Sensitivity
parameter ("AMS"). Use the [DATA ENTRY]
control, [-1/NO] and [+1/YES] keys, or numeric
and [ENTER] keys to set the required degree of
amplitude modulation sensitivity.
Details: A setting of "0" allows no amplitude modu-
lation by any means, while a setting of "+7"
results in maximum sensitivity to amplitude
modulation. Minus settings produce reverse EG
bias — i.e. a higher modulation value produces
lower level.
When setting up the low-frequency oscilla-
tor or a controller to apply amplitude modula-
tion, this parameter must be set to a value other
than "0" for amplitude modulation to take place.

TOR MODULATION DEPTH, AMPLITUDE/

Pitch Modulation Sensitivity
Summary: Determines the sensitivity of the se-
lected element to pitch modulation (vibrato ef-
fects) applied via appropriate controllers.
Settings: 0 ... 7
Procedure: Use the and cursor keys to
select the Pitch Modulation Sensitivity parame-
ter ("PMS"). Use the [DATA ENTRY] control,
[-1/NO] and [+1/YES] keys, or numeric and [EN-
TER] keys to set the required degree of pitch
modulation sensitivity.
Details: A setting of "0" allows no pitch modulation
by any means, while a setting of 7 results in
maximum sensitivity to amplitude modulation.
When setting up the low-frequency oscilla-
tor or a controller to apply pitch modulation,
this parameter must be set to a value other than
"0" for pitch modulation to take place.
Refer to: "LOW FREQUENCY OSCILLATOR
(LFO) WAVEFORM/SPEED/DELAY/PHASE"

TOR MODULATION DEPTH, AMPLITUDE/
PITCH/CUTOFF" on page 70. "CONTROL-
LER" functions from page 81 to page 84.
