LFO
LFO stands for “Low Frequency Oscillator.” This is the oscillator, usually with
a frequency variable from about 0.1 to 20 hertz, that is responsible for creating
the periodic variation in tremolo, vibrato, chorus, phasing, and other modulation
type effects.
MIDI
“MIDI” is an acronym standing for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface.”
MIDI allows musical instruments, sequencers, signal processing devices, com-
puters, and other devices to communicate and control each other via a simple
cable connection. The introduction of MIDI has revolutionized the music field,
making control of the music production process easier and more efficient than
ever before.
Modulation
In synthesizers, the term “modulation” usually means to vary the amplitude or
frequency of a sound in accordance with some other signal. This “other
signal” is most commonly the output from the synthesizer’s LFO (described
above), although in Yamaha FM synthesis (also see above) it can also be the
signal from a modulator operator in an FM algorithm.
Multi
Although normally a prefix, as in “multi-talented,” the term “multi” on its
own has come to refer to multi-timbre setups in the synthesizer world. A multi is
usually a group of 8 or 16 voices that can be played simultaneously either from
the instrument’s keyboard, sometimes in split-keyboard configurations, or via
MIDI. For MIDI control each voice receives on a different MIDI channel
number, allowing multi to be handled as multiple tone generators by the
controlling sequencer or computer. Multis also allow a number of parameters to
be programmed individually for each voice: volume, pitch, effects, etc.
Pan
The word “pan” is derived from the “pan pot” controls found on mixing
consoles, which is in turn derived from “panoramic potentiometer.” A pan
control or parameter determines the position of a specific sound e.g. an
element of a voice or a drum instrument — within the output stereo sound field.
Panning to the left means that more of the corresponding sound is delivered via
the left channel than the right channel, and vice versa. The listener then hears
the sound at the appropriate position between the stereo speakers or
headphones.
Preset A “preset” can be any unit of data — a voice or multi (see above), for example
that is pre-programmed by the manufacturer and provided with a
synthesizer. Presets make life easier for beginning synthesizer users as well as
performance-oriented players who simply want to select a sound and play
without having to do any programming of their own. The quality of the presets
included with an instrument is therefore critical to the value of the instrument.
Vector
Mathematically speaking, a “vector” is a physical quantity with both
magnitude and direction. This applies in a similar way to vector synthesis in that
the vector control controls the magnitude and direction of a quantity that can be
pitch or level.
