Feedback: 0…127 —The left audio output of each voice
can feed back into the signal path pre-filter. Depending
upon the amount of feedback, this can result in anything
from a pleasing fuzzy distortion-like sound to unpredict-
able harmonic squealing and widespread pandemonium. A
setting of 0 prevents any of the signal from feeding back.
See “Tempest Voice Architecture” on page 24 for more
information.
Note: Because the feedback loop is taken from the left output, pan settings
and modulation will affect the behavior and level of feedback, so be careful
(and maybe turn down your monitors/headphones while tweaking?)!
Volume: 0…127 —Sets the volume of the current sound before it is sent to the
mixer.
Note: Volume level can be set, or affected by modulation, at several points
in the signal path, so clipping distortion may occur if the levels and/or modu-
lation amounts are set high. If clipping is undesirable, simply turn the level
and/or mod amount down until it stops clipping.
