KeyboardFreak-

I love the jv-1010 sound module that I bought(I've had it for over a month now). I was wondering if you know of any good Leslie sounds on the Keyboards of the 60's and 70's expansion board. Oh, in the manuel, what does the waveform list refer to? Thanks,

Glad you're enjoying it!!

I'll get back to you on this. I'll play around today and see which patches I like best... I can't remember them all off-hand.

Oh, in the manuel, what does the waveform list refer to?

Each "patch" (the actual sounds on the expansion board) is made up of up to 4 different "tones". A "tone" is a "waveform" that has been processed by the synthesis engine.... if you edit the decay length, attack velocity, range, etc, etc of a waveform, you end up with a "tone." A waveform is the simplest element of any particular patch. It is the building block of all the patches on the expansion board. Usually, you'll have many different waveforms with similar names.... you might see something like "FenderRhodesA", "FenderRhodesB", and "FenderRhodesC." When you see something like this, usually the A's, B's, and C's are referring to the loudness that the waveform was sampled at. For example: The "A" waveform might have been recorded while playing a Fender Rhodes very softly... the "B" might have been recorded while playing about normal.... and the "C" might have been recorded by dropping an anvil on the keys. Usually, when you make your "tones", you take these waveforms and set them up accordingly. When the keyboard is pressed softly.... tone A will sound, which is an edited version of waveform "FenderRhodesA"... same thing with the other tones.

Does that make sense???? Waveforms are basically the simplest building blocks of patches. Sort of what an atom is to a molecule.
