Although the QS’s keyboard does not generate poly pressure, its sound generators can respond to MIDI poly pressure messages. • MOD WHL (Modulation Wheel) is traditionally assigned to LFO level so that rotating the wheel away from you introduces vibrato. However it is also well-suited for controlling timbre, vibrato speed, and other parameters. • PITCH WH (Pitch Wheel) usually controls the oscillator pitch but can control other parameters. • MIDI VOL corresponds to MIDI controller #7. Example: As

Here are the parameters you will find on these pages: REVERB TYPE Range of Settings: (see below) Page 5 The QS has seven different reverb types, all stereo, each of which simulates a different space or produces a different ambient effect. The different Reverb types are: Plate 1 & 2. The two Plate reverb types simulate an artificial device known as a Plate. In the early days of recording, Plates were extremely popular because they were almost the only way to provide any sort of artificial ambianc

Use 1-PITCH mode when you want a program sound layer to play a single pitch polyphonically throughout the entire keyboard range. In 1-PITCH mode, the QS will play the sample used for note C3 for all notes in the range. 1-PITCH mode is often used for layering a noise or drum sound behind another sound that is pitched, for example, to fatten up a bass guitar sound with a hint of kick drum, or to have the same cymbal hit every time any note is played. Alternatively, 1-PMONO mode is a monophonic ver

QS7/QS8 Reference Manual Editing Programs: Chapter 6 PITCH ENVELOPE The Pitch Envelope function (press [90]) can lead to dramatic effects, since it can cause the pitch of a single key to change drastically over time. It’s typically used in special-effect synthesizer programs, but it may also be used more subtly in an acoustic program to simulate the characteristic of some instruments to go sharp on the initial attack, especially when played hard. The following Pitch Envelope variables will have
