• Release Time Parameter: determines the time it takes for
the note to fall from the sustain level to zero (silence)
level when it is released.
• Pitch Bend: The Pitch Bend knob directly changes the pitch
of the selected instrument.
Pitch Bend center position: is normal pitch.
Pitch Bend down: Specifies the amount of pitch
change that will occur when the pitch
bend/modulation lever is moved to the left.
Pitch Bend up: Specifies the amount of pitch change
that will occur when the pitch bend/modulation lever
is moved the right.
• Low-Frequency Oscillator Controls: These knobs apply LFO
modulation to the selected instrument. Use the ‘Rate’
(Frequency) and ‘Depth’ (Amplitude) knobs to adjust the LFO
effect as required. By using the LFO to modulate various
aspects of the audio signal, you can apply effects such as
vibrato or tremolo.
• Virtual Reverb Room built-in: Free variation of acoustic
ambience thanks to complete separation of instrument and room.
Small rooms can be modeled as well as large spaces.
•
Filter Section: The switch includes: LP (Low pass), BP
(Band pass), HP (High pass), notch, peak, low pass and high
pass shelving filter with adjustable cutoff frequency and
bandwidth.
• Volume: Adjusts the volume of the instrument.
• The
pre-recorded glissandi may be played conveniently on C4-B4
key range of MIDI keyboard, however on upper and lower notes
can give unusual or quirky sounds that add an extra
dimension to your playing.

1.- Concert harp: Also known as 'Pedal Harp' is a large
and technically modern harp, designed primarily for
classical music and played either solo, as part of a chamber
ensemble, or in an orchestra.
2.- Celtic harp: The Celtic harp is a triangular harp
traditional to Brittany, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. It is
known as a telenn in Breton, cláirseach in Irish, clàrsach
in Scottish Gaelic and telyn in Welsh. In Ireland and
Scotland, it was a wire-strung instrument requiring great
skill and long practice to play, and was associated with the
Gaelic ruling class. It appears on the coins and coat of
arms of the Republic of Ireland.
3.-
Electric harp: Electric harps are based on their acoustic
originals. There are both solid-body and hollow body
electro-acoustic models available. True electric harps have
a solid body versus a hollow body electro-acoustic harp,
which can be played either acoustically or electronically. A
true electric solid-body harp cannot be played acoustically
since it has no hollow soundbox, and must be amplified when
played.
4.- Synth
Harp: a synthesizer harp with physically-modeled strings.
5.- Hammered dulcimer: most frequently but not
always trapezoidal in shape, with many strings struck by
handheld "hammers". This type of instrument is found in many
cultures, especially in England, in the British Isles and in
the north of continental Europe. Most countries have their
own name for the instrument, for instance in Thailand it is
called a khim, in India it is called Santoor and many have
different tuning systems. Being a struck string instrument,
it is considered to be among the ancestors of the piano.
6.- Electric Hammered Dulcimer: They come in a number of
different sizes, styles and types, and use a
pickup to amplify the sound.
