Roland v-synth xt Manual Do Proprietário

 

The V-Synth XT is a professional synthesizer with a sound generator section that represents a pooling of numerous proprietary Roland 
technologies, allowing an extremely high level of musical expressive potential.

From acoustic-like sounds to lush pads, rhythmical grooves, and aggressive sounds that could not be produced by synthesizers of the past, the V-
Synth XT is able to create organic changes in the sound. Furthermore, the VC-1 and VC-2 “V-Card” series software expansions are preinstalled. 
You can switch systems simply by pressing a single switch—there's no need for the bothersome routine of switching off the power, then switching 
it back on again. Thanks to the inclusion of this software, the V-Synth XT can be used as two other, completely different products; as a “D-50” and 
as a “Vocal Designer.”

Whether you're playing live on stage or producing music in the studio, and regardless of the musical styles in which you're working, the V-Synth 
XT gives you usable and playable sounds that are available nowhere else.

The sound generator section consists of a PCM oscillator with 
VariPhrase capability, high-quality analog modeling oscillators, 
powerful modulators, and COSM processors equipped with 
sideband filters. You can specify how these sections are 
connected simply by selecting a structure. By combining these 
sections, each of which delivers powerful functionality, you can 
create completely new sounds, which could not be produced on 
any previous synthesizer.

 

●

 

Each of the two oscillators can function as one of three types: 
PCM (VariPhrase), analog modeling, and external input. 
Dedicated envelopes are provided for the principal parameters 
of each oscillator. Even when using the oscillators alone, you can 
apply a wide range of time-based changes.

 

●

 

The PCM oscillators utilize Roland's proprietary VariPhrase 
technology. In a revolutionary breakthrough in comparison to 
conventional waveform playback, VariPhrase allows the pitch, 
time, and formant of the audio material to be varied with 
complete independence in real time, while maintaining high 
audio quality. This transforms a PCM waveform into “elastic 
audio,” which you can freely stretch like a rubber band in the 
desired direction and create organic-sounding changes.

 

●

 

The analog modeling oscillators are packed with high-quality 
waveforms, such as the “Super Saw,” which is just what you 
need for thick detuned textures; and a feedback oscillator, which 
produces a dramatically varying lead sound—all together giving 
you a total of fourteen waveforms to stimulate your musical 
creativity.

 

●

 

The oscillator output can be processed by Roland's proprietary 
COSM processors. Going far beyond the filter functionality seen 
on typical synthesizers, these implement a wide range of 
processes. There are a total of 16 types, including TVF, guitar 
amp modeling, Lo-Fi processor, a sideband filter, which imparts 
a sense of playable pitch to noise or a phrase, and a resonator, 
which adds the body resonances of an instrument. You can also 
apply a COSM processor to an external audio input and use the 
V-Synth XT as a filter bank.

V-Synth XT features a Sound Shaper function, which liberates 
the musician from dealing with an overwhelming number of 
edit parameters. Simply choose the desired sound template from 
the list, and the parameters that are effective for that template 
will be selected and available for your control. You'll be able to 
obtain the desired variations easily by operating a few knobs or 
buttons to edit exactly what you need, just like a professional 
sound designer.

●

 

All sounds can be rewritten by the user down to the level of the 
source waves. You can sample directly into the V-Synth XT, or import 
WAV/AIFF files from external devices, making this is an ideal 
instrument for the professional who insists on absolute originality.

 

●

 

V-Synth XT provides a Rhythm mode screen, which lets you 
assign different V-Synth sounds to each note of the keyboard. 
This means that you can use the synth sound generator as a 
rhythm kit to play many types of sound from the keyboard. 
Since the sound assigned to each key is a fully editable V-Synth 
sound, you can have anything from an analog kick to VariPhrase 
rhythm loops available for immediate playing.

●

 

V-Synth XT provides a multi-step modulator, which lets you 
choose four parameters from a broad range of choices, and 
simultaneously modulate these parameters by completely 
different ascending or descending patterns. You can use the panel 
knobs to freely program the ascending or descending patterns, 
and you can even turn Smoothing on and use this as an LFO.

 

●

 

VariPhrase waves can be freely controlled using the Time Trip 
function. By stroking the Time Trip pad in a circular motion, you 
can halt the progress of the waveform while the sound is still 
being heard, and then play that sound from the keyboard as the 
desired pitches. It's also easy to create distinctive effects such as 
manually controlling the progression of break-beats.

 

●

 

All of the various functions that control time-based change can 
be synchronized to the tempo. VariPhrase, the LFO and 
envelope of each section, the programmable arpeggiator, the 
multi-step modulator, and the effects can all be controlled by the 
master tempo.
