The
AI
(Advanced
integrated)
synthesis
system
of
the
MIR
makes
it
possible
to
combine
all various sound types
-- from
conventional
synthesizer
sounds
to
sampled
sounds
and
drum
sounds.
For
sampled
sounds, the
large-capa
city
PCM
data
memory
of
16
bit
x 2
mega-words,
far
greater
than
that
of
conventional
samplers,
has
been
utilized,
and
a
carefully
selected
group
of
Multisounds
(a
sound
whose
original
wave
shape has
been
multi-sampled
1) has
been
installed.
For
its
synthesizer
sounds,
not
only
the D.W.G.S. waveforms2,
which
are
produced
by
a
process
much
the
same
as
that
of
an
analog
synthesizer,
but
also
aperiodic
or
irregu
lar
waveforms
created
by
extraction
of
harmonically
unrelated
frequency
components
3
are
part
of
the
M
lR
's
structure
.As a result,
creation
of
new
and unique
sounds
beyond
the
existing
limitations
of
the
conventional
synthesizer
is possible.
Processing
any
of
the
programs
or
individual
sounds
with
the
use
of
VDFs
(Variable
Digital
Filter)
and VDAs
(Variable
Digital
Amplifier)
is,
of
course,
possible
.
Moreover,
different
effects
can
be
assi
gned
to specific
programs
in a
configuration
of
2 systems
and
2
channels
through
theMlR's
MDE
(Multi Digital Effect) feature
when
playing
Multisounds.
With
the use
of
these
functions,
total
control
over
all aspects
of
sound
creation,
including
effects,
is
possible.
1 Multi Sampling
The
harmonic
structure
and
overtones
present
in high
pitched
sounds
usually
differs
from
that
of
low
pitched
sounds,
even
in
the
same
musical
instrument.
Multi
Sampling
is
a
method
to
recreate
those
characteristics
by
sampling
an
instrument
repeatedly
over
a
range
of
many
octaves.
2 D.W.G.S. (Digital Waveform Generator System) Waveform Data
The
instrument
sound
is
reproduced
by the
following
process
:
Computer
analysis
determines
the frequency
components
of
the
sampled
instrument
sound
and
reproduces
them
by
creating
a harmonic
table
for them as is
done
in
additive
synthesis.
3 Extraction
of
Harmonically Unrelated Frequency Components
Sep
arates
the
aperiodic
and ha
rmonically
unre
lat
ed
components
characteristic
of
such
sounds
as
objects
bein
g
hit
or
scraped
from the
sampled
wave
shapes.

(Original Sound Waveforms)
The oscillator (OSC) is selected from
the Multisound (00 to 99).
Multisounds can be selected from
the
PCM
card.
See EDIT PROGRAM mode, F0-2
for more details.
An
original program can be created
by performing various processes to the
Multisound.
The VDF (Variable Digital Filter)
controls the sound color.
The VDA (Variable Digital
Amplifier) controls the sound
volume.
These processes are done in the
EDITPROGRAM Mode.

The work "Program" as referred to in this manual is synonymous with "sound

or
"preset voice" in other synthesizers.
Program numbers available for selection are from 00 to 99. (Selection from
only 00 to 49 is possible when large sequence allocation is selected.)

COMBINATION
MODE----
•The word "Combination" as referred to
in this manual means two
or
more
programs that have been grouped
together for simultaneous play.
Combination numbers available for selection are from 00 to 99. (Selection
from only 00 to 49 is possible when large sequence allocation is selected.)
Program changes received via MIDI in the COMBINATION Mode change the
Combination.
Layer Split
Timbre
Settings for Layer
or
Split can be made in
the EDIT COMBINATION Mode.
Separate MIDI channels can be assigned
to each Program (or timbre) when Multi
is chosen. In this way, one
MIR
Music
Work station can, with the aid
of
an
external sequencer, output eight different
sound colors at the same time.
When using
theMlR's
built-in sequencer,
'Programs can
be
assigned to each track
of
the sequencer without having to create a
Combination.

Parameter
The

is
like
the one above.
While
this
display
is
shown,
the
pressing
of
any

key
and
adjusting
of
the

dial will
change
the
value
of
the
parameter,
which
is

In
this way
Programs
may be

edited
without

This
is
particularly
convenient
for
making

*
The
functions
of
the
parameters
are
as
follows
(see
pp.18
·
-19
in
the
PROGRAM
Mode
for
more
details):
0 =
OSC
Balance
(Oscillator
balance)
This
parameter
controls
the
relative
sound
volume
of
the
two
oscillators
of
programs
having
two
oscillators.
The
larger
the
value,
the
greater
the
volume
of
OSC
1
becomes.
(Range:
-10
to
+10.)
F =VDF
Cutoff
(VDF
cutoff
frequency)
This
parameter
controls
the
frequency
point
from
which
all
lower
frequencies
are
pa
s
sed
and
all
higher
ones
are
cut
off
by the VDF.
The
higher
this
number
is
the
clearer
or
brighter
the
timbre
of
the
sound
becomes,
and
the
smaller
the
number
the
more
muted
or
soft
the
timbre
becomes.
(Range:
-10
to
+10
.)
L'
= VDA
Level
This
parameter
adjusts
the
level
of
the
entire
Program
by VDA.
(Range:
-10
to
+10
.)
K =KBD
Track
(Keyboard
tracking)
Used
in
conjunction
with
VDF
Cutoff,
this
parameter
sets
the
degree
to which
keyboard
pitch
aff
ects
the
amplitude
and
the
cutoff
frequency.
The
larger
the
number
set
with this
parameter,
the
wider
the
variation
in
timbre
becomes,
corresponding
to the
note
played.
(Range:
-10
to
+10
.)
V =Vel.
Sens.
(Velocity
Sensitivity)
This
parameter
sets
the
degree
to
which
key
ve
locity
affects
the
amplitude
and
the
cutoff
frequency.
The
larger
the
value
lis, the
greater
the
change
in
timbre
becomes,
corresponding
to how hard
the
keys
are struck.
(Range
:
-10
to
+10.)
A =
VDF/
A
EG
Attack
Time
(VDF
and
VDA
EG
attack
time)
This
parameter
controls
the
attack
time
of
the
program.
The
larger
the
value
is,
the
longer
the
attack
time
becomes.
(Range: -
10
to
+10.)
R =
VDF/
A
EG
Release
Time
(VDF
and
VDA
EG
release
time)
This
parameter
controls
the
release
time
of
the program.
The
larger
the
number
is,
the
longer
the
release
time
becomes.
(Range
:
-10
to
+10.)
E =
Effect
Balance
This
parameter
controls
the
volume
ba
lance
of
the
effect
and
direct
sounds.
The
larger
the
number
is,
the
greater
the
ratio
of
effect
sound
to
direct
sound
becomes.
(Range:
-10
to +10.)
NOTE: The values of the parameters here will return to their original settings when
you
select other programs.
When moving to other modes, the parameter value (and, hence, the sound) remains at its stored
or
edited
setting. When moving back to the PROGRAM Mode, the display value will be reset
to
zero, but the actual
value remains unchanged.
