the +/Y
ES
or -/N
O
switches to adjust the value.
Voice Volume: 0…100 – Sets the voice volume; usually used for matching volumes
between Programs.

Trigger Select: see table – Selects the source of triggers/gates for the envelope
generators. Some of the Trigger modes will automatically turn the Sequencer on. This

Envelope Trigger Selections
Sequencer or Key
The envelopes will be triggered by either the
sequencer or the keyboard. When triggered by the
sequencer, the gates are on for half the step time.
Simply adjust the envelope parameters (ADSR) for the
desired effect.
Sequencer Only
The envelopes will be triggered by the sequencer only.
Keyboard Only
The envelopes will be triggered by the keyboard only.
Key, Resets Seq
The envelopes will be triggered by the keyboard, and
the sequencer will be reset on every key (if it is
running). The sequencer will not trigger the envelopes.
Key, Gates Seq
Gated mode – the envelopes will be triggered by the
sequencer when a key is held; in other words the
keyboard will gate the sequencer. AUTO
KeyGates Seq Rst
Gated mode, reset – same as Gated mode, except
every time a key is hit, the sequencer is reset to step
1. AUTO
Ext Audio Input
The envelopes are gated by the Left external audio
input signal level, in other words, when the signal gets
above a fixed threshold, the envelopes start. The
envelopes then go into the release phase when the
signal level drops below a second fixed threshold.
ExtIn, ResetsSeq
Same as external in, but also resets the sequencer to
step 1 if it is running.
ExtIn, Gates Seq
External In signal will gate the sequencer. AUTO
ExtIn GateSeqRst
External In signal will gate the sequencer, and also
resets the sequencer to step 1 on each new gate.
AUTO
