The screen displays as illustrated in this Owner's Manual are for instructional purposes, and may appear somewhat different from the screens which appear on your computer. · · · This owner's manual is applicable to both the A5000 Editor and the A4000 Editor (for both Windows and Macintosh). The screen illustrations are mainly taken from the A5000 Editor for Windows, although and differences between versions are explained. This owner's manual assumes that you are already familiar with basic Windows/Macintosh operation. [. . . ] 8 CYCLE Selects the note type corresponding to the one PROGRAM LFO cycle. MANUAL allows the PROGRAM LFO to be synchronized to the specified tempo, and MIDI allows the PROGRAM LFO to be synchronized to a received MIDI clock. @ RESET CH Specifies the MIDI channel via which a received note-on message will initialize the phase of the PROGRAM LFO when MANUAL synchronization is selected. # NOTE Specifies the note number which will initialize the phase of PROGRAM LFO. $ VALUE Sets the values for STEP 1 through 16 of the step wave waveform. % SLOPE Selects the method by which the step wave steps will be smoothly connected. Values for steps beyond the total step number have no effect. 12 Sample Edit Window The Sample Edit Window allows you to edit the parameters related to the A5000/A4000 sample banks or samples. The edited data are transmitted to the A5000/A4000 via MIDI in realtime. For information on each parameter, refer to the A5000/A4000 Owner's Manual. 1 2 3 4 1 The Toolbar This area includes the buttons controlling the Sample Edit Window (P. 24). 2 "MAP/OUT", "FILTER", "EG" and "LFO/MIDI/CONTROL" tabs Click the tabs to switch between the "MAP/OUT", "FILTER", "EG" and "LFO/MIDI/CONTROL" pages. 3 ON/OFF button Determines whether the sample bank values or the individual sample values will be effective for each parameter or parameter group. ^ VELOCITYRATE Determines how the filter EG rates vary in response to the velocity of the played note. & VELOCITYATTACK LEVEL Sets the first velocity-sensitivity value for the filter EG's initial level and attack level. * VELOCITYLEVEL Sets the general velocity sensitivity for all filter EG levels. PITCH EG unit ( ATTACK RATE Sets the rate at which the pitch moves from its initial level (at note on) to the attack level. º DECAY RATE Sets the rate at which the pitch moves from the attack level to the sustain level. ¡ RELEASE RATE Sets the rate at which the pitch moves from the sustain level to the release level following note off. TM INIT LEVEL Sets the pitch offset value at the time of note on. 20 £ ATTACK LEVEL Sets the pitch offset value at the attack level. ¢ SUSTAIN LEVEL Sets the pitch offset value at the sustain level. § RATE SCALING Determines how the pitch EG rates vary according to the note played. ¶ VELOCITYRATE Determines how the pitch EG rates vary in response to the velocity of the played note. · VELOCITYLEVEL Sets the general velocity sensitivity for pitch EG levels. ª PITCH EG RANGE Sets the range for pitch EG pitch variation. 21 LFO/MIDI/CONTROL page 7 8 9 1 3 5 4 6 2 ! [. . . ] Interconnect the MIDI interface device connected to the Macintosh and the MIDI IN-A or MIDI IN-B terminal of the A5000. Select the terminal you use (MIDI IN-A or MIDI IN-B) in the UTILITY/MIDI function/SysEx page/Receive Port. Double-click the "OMS Setup" icon in the "OMS Application" folder. Choose "Open" from the "File" menu and select "A5000-Modem" from within the "OMS setup for YAMAHA" folder. n If you are using a computer with no modem port (such as the Performa series), look in the "A5000Printer" folder instead. 4.
