each algorithm always controls pitch, even though it doesnt apply in every instance and, as
will be explained later in this section, it is bypassed in cascaded algorithms. Similarly, the last
DSP function always controls the nal amplitude of the signal (this function is represented as
a block labeled AMP).
e number of function-parameters a DSP function can have depends on the relative size of
its function-block on the Algorithm page (four slots is the largest block size). For instance,
a function-block that is three slots long can have up to three function-parameters, whereas
a function-block that is two slots long can have up to two function-parameters. For each
function-parameter, theres a corresponding “subpage” on both the DSPCTL and DSPMOD
pages. On the DSPCTL subpages, there are ne adjust and hard-wired parameters with
which you can make xed adjustments to the function-parameter. On the DSPMOD
subpages, there are programmable parameters that you can assign to any control source in the
Controller List to modulate the function-parameter. e various DSP parameter-types are
described in Common DSP Control Parameters. More information on the subpages can be
found in The DSP Control (DSPCTL) Page and The DSP Modulation (DSPMOD) Page.
Highlighting any of the function-blocks on the ALG page and pressing the Favorite1 button
takes you to the DSPCTL page.
Common DSP Control Parameters
e type of DSP function available for any function block depends on the algorithm. Some
of the specialized functions like the PANNER are always located just before the nal AMP
function. Others, like the two-input functions, appear only in algorithms that are structured
for two-input functions.
You can change the nature of each layer of a program simply by assigning dierent DSP
functions to the layers algorithm. Your level of control goes much deeper than that, however.
Each DSP function has one or more parameters to which you can patch a variety of control
sources to modify the behavior of the DSP functions themselves.
e parameters on the various control-input pages are very similar; in fact, there are six
parameters that appear on almost every page. Consequently we refer to them as the common
DSP control parameters. Although the parameters on the control-input pages dier slightly
from function to function, you can expect to see some or all of the common DSP control
parameters whenever you select the control-input page for any of the DSP functions.
