2. Menu

■File menu

New

A new algorithm edit screen will open. Immediately after selecting this item, you must enter the algorithm name (link information file name). This file name will automatically have the extension ".YLI".

Open

Open the algorithm saved in the link information file (YLI).
Immediately after selecting this item, select the link information file in the standard file open dialog. The algorithm edit screen will open, the specified file will be loaded, and the algorithm will be displayed.

Save

The algorithm currently being edited is saved in the link information file (YLI). The save file name will be the name of the current algorithm. Extended executable format files (EXL) and binary executable format files (EXB) are also output at this time.

Save As...

Save the algorithm currently being edited to the link information file (YLI).
Immediately after selecting this item, enter and specify the save file name in the standard save dialog. Extended executable format files (EXL) and binary executable format files (EXB) are also output at this time.

Close

The algorithm edit screen currently being edited will be closed.

Quit

The linker will exit.

■Edit menu

Undo

The most recently made edit will be canceled.

Cut

The selected module or connection will be deleted. If you delete a module, the connected wires will also be deleted. Deleted modules and their information are stored in the Paste buffer.

Copy

The selected module is saved to the Paste buffer along with its information.

Paste

Modules saved in the Paste buffer by Cut or Copy will be displayed on the Algorithm Edit screen. The displayed position is the last clicked position in the algorithm edit screen.

SelectAll

All modules and connections are selected.

■Window menu

EffectModules

The Effect module selection screen will open. If it is already open and behind another screen, it will be brought to the front.
For details on how to place modules, see ``Module Placement'' in ``4. Algorithm Edit''.

I/OModules

The I/O module selection screen will open. If it is already open and behind another screen, it will be brought to the front.
For details on how to place modules, see ``Module Placement'' in ``4. Algorithm Edit''.

Parameters

The parameter edit window for the selected module will open. Instead of selecting this item, you can also double-click the module selection field.

SizeToFit

Reduces the contents of the algorithm edit screen so that the entire algorithm can be seen. You cannot edit the algorithm in the reduced view. Also, if everything is displayed from the beginning, it will not be reduced. To return to the original size, select this item again. A check mark will be displayed to the left of this item while it is displayed in a reduced size.

CoefTables

The "Coefficient Table Allocator" for handling coefficient table data will be opened on the linker. If you register a coefficient table file with the "Coefficient Table Allocator", the coefficient table data will be linked to the executable file, and you will be able to use Effect modules that require coefficient tables.
The "coefficient table allocator" is as follows.

Register additional coefficient table files using the “ADD” button.
Use the “DEL” button to cancel the registration of the selected coefficient table file. When unregistered, the numbers of subsequent coefficient table files will be padded. Therefore, please note that it may be necessary to change the module coefficient table number specification as well.

reference

A coefficient table file is a data file containing binary data of size A00H and has the extension ".TBL". The dynamic filter module requires this, and filter characteristics such as resonance can be changed by changing this coefficient table file.

■GlobalCoef menu

Define Global

The global coefficient definition screen opens. If this screen is already open and behind another screen, it will be brought to the front.

AlterToGlobal

The Global Coefficient Usage screen opens. This item can only be selected when a coefficient that can be globalized is selected in the parameter edit window. In principle, parameters whose units are displayed in [%] can be globalized.

RevertToLocal

The globally specified coefficients selected in the parameter edit window are returned locally. This item can only be selected when the parameter edit window is active.

■Process menu

Link

Checks the number of program steps and internal memory usage for the current algorithm configuration, and displays the results.

Download

The data created with the menu item “Link” is transferred to SCSP in executable form.

■Option menu

RingBuffer

A dialog will appear allowing you to specify the size of the ring buffer used by the current algorithm.

SCSI ID

SCSP/DSP/Linker uses SCSI to transfer data to SCSP. Normally, the SCSI ID is automatically set when the linker is started, but if you select this item, a dialog to determine the ID will be displayed, allowing you to reset the ID.

■SoftwareEG/LFO menu

This menu is used to set parameters for generating EG/LFO waveforms on the sound CPU (Software EG/LFO). Software EG/LFO virtually realizes up to 32 EG/LFO elements using software, depending on the sound CPU load.

NumberOfElements

Selecting this item opens the "NumberOfElements" dialog (described later).

MasterSwitch

Selecting this item opens the "MasterSwitch" dialog (described below).

#0~#31

Selecting one of these items will open the "SoftwareEG/LFO Element" window (described below) corresponding to that number. If it is already open, it will be displayed as active.

●Dialog/Window

"NumberOfElements" dialog

This dialog sets the maximum number of available SoftwareEG/LFO elements. If you set the setting value to N in this dialog, N elements from Element#0 to Element#(N-1) will be enabled.
Also, only element data within the valid range here will be linked to the executable file.

“MasterSwitch” dialog

Use the checkboxes in this dialog to turn each element ON/OFF. The checkbox number represents the SoftwareEG/LFO element number.

“SoftwareEG/LFO Element” window

EG/LFO switching radio button
Set whether the element functions as an EG or LFO. All displays related to functions on the side that is not selected will be grayed out.

MIDI Ch

Set the MIDI Ch that will receive Note information for driving the EG.

Hold Time

Set the hold time in [ms] units.

Hold Level

Sets the EG level during the Hold period.

Attack/Decay/Slope/Release Rate

Set the Rate for each state of Attack/Decay/Slope/Release.

Attack/Decay/Slope/Release Level

Set the level of each point of Attack/Decay/Slope/Release.

graph

Calculate the change in EG over time from the setting values of each EG parameter and display it in a graph. You can enlarge/reduce or move the time axis by setting the following two radio buttons.

Time axis magnification setting radio button

Enlarge/reduce the time axis of the EG graph.

Time axis origin setting radio button

Moves the origin of the time axis of the EG graph to the beginning of any segment of the EG graph.

Amplitude

Sets the LFO amplitude.

Frequency

Sets the LFO frequency.
