11 • DYN (F2, 2nd page): Vel>Decay: The velocity of a note will control the decay time of its sound (±00-99). With a positive value, higher-v elocity notes will have a longer decay time. With a nega tive value, higher-velocity notes w ill have a shorter decay time.

14 VIBRATO: Vibrato is produced by c ausing the pitch of a note to "waver " slightly back and forth, creating a subtle pulsing ef fect. This effect is often created by players of string instruments and horns. The DM10's vibrato effects have the same editable parameters.
