CONTROL 2
[1...64]:
Selects the DWGS waveform.
(➝Table 3-1)
DWGS waveform data was first
used in the Korg DW-6000
(which went on sale in 1984),
and has continued to be devel-
oped since that time.
DWGS (
)
(Digital Waveform Generator System):
This is waveform data created by
harmonic additive synthesis.
Choose this when you want to cre-
ate sounds with a distinctive "digi-
tal-synth" character, such as synth
bass, electric piano, bell, or horn. 64
types of waveform are provided.
Noise (
):
This generates white noise. Within
the oscillator, a LPF (Low Pass Fil-
ter) is provided to process the noise.
(➝Figure 3-6). You can use this to
create percussion sounds, or sound
effects such as surf. This can also be
used in conjunction with another
timbre to simulate the "breath" com-
ponent of a wind instrument sound.
CONTROL 1
[0...127]:
This sets the cutoff frequency of the
LPF.
Adjusting this will affect the noise
waveform.

CONTROL 2
[0...127]:
This controls the resonance of the
LPF.
If you raise this enough to produce
an identifiable pitch, the cutoff fre-
quency will move according to the
keyboard location you play, and the
change will be heard as a pitch.
If you want the oscillation pro-
duced by resonance to match the
reference pitch, set "CONTROL
1" to 24.

*: The 35 Endless waveform simulates an endless
scale, in which notes one octave apart have the iden-
tical pitch. You can play an ascending or descend-
ing scale as far as you wish, producing the sensa-
tion that a scale of the same pitch is continuing in-
finitely.
