Assigns the available common or element edit parameters to the – or

continuous slider. The continuous sliders can then be used in the PLAY mode to edit the

assigned parameters in real time while playing (the same applies to the EDIT and UTIL-

ITY modes). The parameter consists of two parts which can be selected independently by

moving the cursor horizontally. The first (leftmost) part determines what type of param-

eter will be controlled.

the continuous slider to affect any edit parameters.

The second (rightmost) is the actual parameter which will be controlled. The param-

eters available for editing via the continuous sliders are individually preset for each voice.

•

Since the continuous sliders actually edit the parameters to which they are

assigned, the “new” voice created by using the sliders can be stored to one of

the VL1’s voice memory locations and used just as if it had been edited in the

EDIT mode (

≥

 the STORE operation is described on page 28).

The continuous slider view function, available in the PLAY mode (

the current positions of the controllers and their corresponding values.
