AWM2 TONE GENERATION
The W5/W7 creates sounds through Yamaha s exclusive AWM2 (2nd generation
Advanced Wave Memory) tone generation process, which starts with high-quality digital
samples of actual instruments and sounds.
The W5/W7 s extensive on-board synthesizer and voice editing features give you
unlimited sound sculpting potential, and its intuitive user interface lets you access literally
any sound parameter in rarely more than two pushes of a button.
The W5/W7 comes equipped with a large capacity waveform ROM full of preset
AWM sound elements 8Mbytes of 16-bit linear waveforms sampled at maximum 48kHz
sampling frequency. These preset sounds are the fundamental waves which make up a
W5/W7 element the building blocks that make up an Instrument voice .
There are hundreds of preset elements to choose from, and an optional External
Expansion Wave/Voice Board can be purchased separately and plugged into the W5/W7 s
logic board to increase the on-board capacity by another 4Mbytes.
AWM elements are at the heart of the W5/W7 s rich, dynamic sound quality. One
AWM element is capable of making an Instrument voice, but the W5/W7 lets you con-
struct voices that contain as many as four elements in order to obtain virtually unlimited
sonic and performance potential.
An AWM element is a wholly formed, complete musical instrument sound unto itself.
It is made up of an AWM sample, or wave , plus pitch, filter, amplitude, LFO and control-
ler components, all of which can be manipulated in a variety of ways.
