In addition to the amplitude and filter envelope generators, the TG500 has an
independent pitch EG that can be used to produce subtle or pronounced time-based
pitch variations. The pitch EG has 5 programmable levels and 4 rates for extended
flexibility.
Although the pitch EG levels and rates are accessed via separate screens, they will
be described together in this section in order to provide a clearer overall picture of
pitch EG operation.

These parameters work in conjunction with the rate parameters described
below to determine the “shape” of the pitch envelope generator for the selected
element.
Unlike the amplitude envelope generator, the “Level” parameters of which
actually correspond to volume levels, the pitch envelope generator level param-
eters correspond to pitch. Plus “+” values produce higher pitch while minus “–”
values produce lower pitch. “0” level values produce normal pitch.
