36 Introductor y Section V oice & Per formance Selection One of the first things y ou'll w ant to do with your EX5, EX5R, or EX7 is select and pla y some of its v oices or performance combinations … this section will sho w y ou ho w to do just that. The EX has 256 preset v oices organized into tw o separate memories — Preset 1 (“P1?[...]

37 Introductor y Section 2 Select a V oice or P erformance In the V oice mode the P1, P2, I1, and I2 memory areas can be dir ectly selected by pr essing the corresponding function k ey , [F1] through [F4], and successiv ely pressing [ENTER] k ey . Each memory area contains 8 banks of 16 v oices each (8 x 16 = 128). The P erformance mode has just on[...]

38 Introductor y Section ■ Alternate Selection Methods The [INC] and [DEC] K eys The [INC] and [DEC] K eys ar e best used for small, step-wise changes — e .g. selecting adjacent voice or performance numbers, or numbers that ar e only a few steps a wa y . Press the [DEC] or [INC] ke y briefly to decrement or incr ement the number by one , or hol[...]

39 Introductor y Section Normal V oices & Drum V oices A WM voices can be divided into two gr oups : normal voices and drum v oices. • A normal voice is simply a pitched voice which can be pla yed on a musical scale fr om low to high, such as a piano or trumpet. • A drum voice is a complete set of drum and other percussion sounds, each ha v[...]

40 Introductor y Section V oice Str ucture & Editing Hints Although the EX Extended Synthesis tone generator system is quite complicated, the o ver all system and interface hav e been designed to make v oice editing as easy and efficient as possible . A thorough understanding of the system will depend on familiarity with the individual paramete[...]

41 Introductor y Section PITCH The PITCH stage determines the pitch of the sound. In addition to allowing the pitch of the v oice to be controlled fr om the ke yboard or via MIDI note data, it allo ws pitch control from the pitch bend wheel, ke yboard aftertouch, or an y other assignable controller . The PITCH stage also includes progr ammable pitc[...]

42 Introductor y Section ■ Overall System Structure If we no w put all four elements together , and add in the all-important control and effect blocks, the system looks something like this: In this diagram note that the KEYBO ARD, CONTR OLLERS & LFO block affects the PITCH, FIL TER, and AMPLITUDE stages of each element, as well as the EFFECT [...]

43 Introductor y Section ■ Element Configuration ■ Element Combinations Although the various element combinations possible with each v oice type wer e introduced in the “Extended Synthesis” section (page 29), we’ll co ver them again her e because they are so pertinent to the current topic . R emember that you can cr eate a voice with only[...]

44 AN(P oly) V oices (EX5, EX5R, and EX7) A standard (P oly) AN voice can hav e 1 AN element and from 1 to 3 A WM elements. If you’r e striving to create a classic analog synth or FM synthesizer type sound, it is pr obably better to start with the single AN element alone . A dd A WM elements as necessary to “modernize” the sound. More on AN v[...]

45 AN+FDSP V oices (EX5 and EX5R only) AN+FDSP voices can ha ve 1 AN element and fr om 1 to 3 FDSP elements. The FDSP stage can be applied to any or all of the A WM elements used, as requir ed. Polyphony The maximum polyphony of the EX5 and EX5R is 126 notes, and the maximum polyphon y of the EX7 is 64 notes. Full polyphony , h oweve r , i s not av[...]

46 ■ Element Muting Another necessity when editing a multi-element voice is the ability to turn individual elements off or on. Y ou might need to concentr ate on the sound of a single element, for ex ample , and need to “mute” any other elements so y ou can hear only the target element while making subtle changes. On the EX5 and EX7 individua[...]

47 Introductor y Section ■ Relative & Absolute Controller Knob Data Entr y Normally when you r otate a Controller Knob being used for data entry , the corresponding v alue changes in relativ e fashion — i.e . the knob increases or decr eases the value of the par ameter in relation to the v alue that was initially on the displa y . T o put i[...]

49 The Power of the Per formance Mode The EX P erformance mode allows up to 16 differ ent voices to be assigned to differ ent “parts” and combined in a number of wa ys. The results can be ideal for r eal-time performance — as the name of the mode suggests — or for sequencing via the EX Song or P attern mode , or via external MIDI control. E[...]

50 Introductor y Section ■ Split Keyboard Instead of lay ering voice parts o ver the same k eyboard r ange , different parts can be assigned to different ar eas of the ke yboard for split k eyboard setups. A simple e xample w ould be to assign a bass voice to the left-hand section of the k eyboar d and a piano voice to the right-hand section. The[...]

51 Introductor y Section ■ Arpeggiator Accompaniment The EX Arpeggiator (page 6 1) is capable of producing an essentially unlimited r ange of patterns which can be tailored to mak e ideal accompaniment for a wide spectrum of musical styles. The Arpeggiator can be assigned to any of the P erformance mode parts, so in a split-keyboar d setup you co[...]

52 ■ V oice Editing From the Per formance Mode There ma y be times when you’ll w ant to actually edit a voice being used in the P erformance mode rather than just the P erformance parameters. Y ou can jump directly to the V oice Edit mode fr om the P erformance or P erformance Edit mode by pressing the [V OICE] key while holding the [PERFORMANC[...]

54 Per formance Mode DSP Limitations The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) system used to cr eate the EX effects is also used by the AN, FDSP , and VL (EX5/5R only) tone generators to cr eate voices. This means that less DSP capacity is av ailable to produce effects when the afor ementioned voice types ar e used. This imposes limitations which are di[...]

55 The Controllers In addition to the standard pitch bend and modulation wheels, the EX5 and EX7 offer a r ange of assignable controllers that can be used f or unprecedented sound contr ol. The EX5R T one Generator also offers e xtended controller v ersatility for enhanced pr ogramming and performance contr ol. The ke yboard models featur e a secon[...]

56 Ribbon Controller (EX5/EX7) The Ribbon Controller is a touch sensor that y ou control b y running a finger lightly across its surface to the left or right. The Ribbon Controller can be assigned to the full r ange of EX parameters. Controller Knobs (EX5/EX5R/EX7) In addition to their function as data entry controls in the editing, utility , and s[...]

57 Scene Switching & Morphing The SCENE [1] and [2] ke ys can be used to memorize and recall differ ent settings of the Controller Knobs for the voices, so a complete set of knob settings can be r ecalled instantaneously . Y ou can also “morph” smoothly between memorized scenes for ne w expr essive effects. Scenes can be independently store[...]

Introductor y Section 58 ■ Scene Control (Scene Morphing) The term “morph” comes from the w ord “metamorphosis,” meaning to change fr om one form or shape to another . In the case of the EX scenes it means to change gradually and smoothly fr om one scene to another , instead of switching abruptly as described in the preceding section. T o[...]

59 The source contr ollers are: The destination parameters ar e organized into 8 r elated groups, listed belo w . The actual parameters av ailable in each group for a giv en voice will depend to some e xtent on the type of voice and how it is set up, the type of effects selected, etc . The destination parameter gr oups are: A controller set can, fo[...]

60 Sequencer Functions The EX5, EX5R, and EX7 hav e three separ ate sequencing functions suited to different purposes: ● The Song Mode The EX Song Sequencer is a full-featured 16-tr ack sequencer complete with real-time pla y effects — including “groo ve” quantization — and a compr ehensive r ange of editing functions. A 30,000 note memor[...]

61 ● The Arpeggiator 4-track arpeggio patterns — fr om simple to sophisticated — can be stored as performance parameters for automatic r ecall and use with individual performance setups, or used with voices in the V oice mode . The EX Arpeggiator makes it easy to create automatic arpeggios, techno-style patterns, or a virtually unlimited rang[...]

62 Introductor y Section Sequence Record Modes & Editing The number and type of recor ding modes av ailable is different for each EX sequencer function: ● Replace In the “R eplace” real-time r ecord mode the EX5, EX5R, or EX7 r ecords e xactly what y ou play as you pla y it, erasing an y pre vious material in the record tr ack as you do s[...]

63 Introductor y Section ● Step The Step recor d mode lets you enter each tr ack note-by-note , with precise control o ver the timing, length, and loudness of each note . Y ou can recor d entire tracks using the Step mode , or use it to brush-up and add data to an existing tr ack. The Step recor d mode lets you r ecord extr emely fast or complex [...]

64 Play Ef fects & Groove Quantization An important feature of all EX sequencer functions is “Pla y Effects,” … including “Groo ve Quantization.” Play Effects affect song, pattern, or arpeggio pla yback in real time , and are not actually recor ded with the sequence data. The Play Effects include Gr oov e Quantization and a range of o[...]

65 The EX Ef fect System The EX effect system is not an “ extr a.” It is a top-quality digital signal processing system which is capable of producing effects riv alling and e v en ex ceeding those of man y separate component effect units in quality . In the EX5, EX5R, and EX7, effect programming is an integral and important part of v oice progr[...]

66 Inser tion Ef fects Two insertion effect units ar e pro vided in addition to the R ev erb and Chorus system effect units described abov e . The Effect 1 unit includes 24 effects including chorus, distortion and ov erdriv e , amp simulation, auto wah, equalization and mor e . The Effect 2 unit adds a range dela y , r ev erb , and other effects, p[...]

67 Ef fects In the Per formance Mode In the P erformance mode the insertion effects apply to the voices e xactly as the y wer e set up in the V oice mode . The V oice mode R ev erb and Chorus unit settings, how ev er , are not used in the P erformance mode . In the P erformance mode each part has R ev erb Send and Chorus Send parameters which deter[...]

68 DSP Limitations The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) system used to cr eate the EX effects is also used by the AN, FDSP , and VL (EX5/5R only) tone generators to create v oices. This means that less DSP capacity is av ailable to produce effects when the afor ementioned voice types ar e used. This imposes limitations which are differ ent for the E[...]

69 Sampling The EX Sample mode lets y ou “sample” sounds via a microphone or line sour ce which can be used in A WM voice elements (samples ar e assigned to v oice elements via the V oice Edit OSC displa y — page 80), or mapped to individual ke ys of the ke yboard in the K ey Map mode (page 72). It is also possible to sample directly fr om th[...]
