Mono On 126 0-127 Only oscillator 1 is active.
Dual On 127 0 Both oscillators (having equal phase positions) are active as soon two
notes are played at the same time. If more than two notes are played
MIDI controller #89 sets the priority.
Dual/Detune 26 or 77 On: 0-63
O: 64-127
Both oscillators have unequal phase positions.
[O] will switch back to the mono mode.
Dual/Octave 27 or 78 On: 0-63
O: 64-127
Both oscillators have equal phase positions. Oscillator 2 is pitched one
octave higher than oscillator 1.
[O] will switch back to the mono mode.
Note Priority 89 On: 0-63
O: 64-127
In dual modes the values up to 63 leading to play the both highest
notes. The values above 63 leading to play the both lowest notes and
one octave lower. Note: controller #89 switches [Aftertouch] also.
Aftertouch 89 On: 32-127
O: 0-32
With values from 32 the aftertouch information will control the digital
lter cut-o. Note: controller #89 switches [Note Priority] also.
Breath Control 2 0-127 Like for [Aftertouch] breath control controls the lter cut-o. Note that
[Breath Control] and [Aftertouch] will overwrite each other.
Sustain Hold 64 On: 64-127
O: 0-63
Hold function. If [On] is selected note-o commands are no longer
processed. A played note holds a xed level - which is set by controller
#21 ([Sustain] of ADSR envelope) - until new notes occurs. This depends
on the particular mono-/ dual-mode.

Key-O Attack 30 or 81 On: 64-127
O: 0-63
If [On] is set note o commands will generate ADSR envelope re-trig-
gering. Interesting for bassy and percussive sounds.
Portamento 65 On: 64-127
O: 0-63
Glide. A new played note will slide from the previous to the new target
pitch.
Portamento Time 5 0-127 If [Portamento] is selected this parameter controls the speed at which
an oscillator moves to a new pitch.
All Sound O 120 0 Silence all notes currently sounding.
All Notes O 123 0 Turns o all voices. A note-o message will address each note to stop
hanging sounds if necessary.
