About the Manuals
The VL1-m comes with two manuals — Getting Started and Fea-
ture Reference. If you’re just starting out with the VL1-m we urge you to
begin with the Getting Started manual since it describes basic concepts
and procedures that are essential to proper operation of the VL1-m.
The Getting Started Manual
The Getting Started manual contains seven chapters that take you through
essential information and procedures you will need to know to become familiar
with your VL1-m:
1. VL1-m Basics [ Page 8]
Basic concepts you’ll need to understand in order to get the
most out of the VL1-m.
2. The Controls & Connectors [ Page 16]
Brief descriptions of the VL1-m controls and connectors, and
their functions.
3. Setting Up [ Page 22]
System connections, powering up, playing the demo, calibrating
the Breath Controller, and loading the pre-programmed voices.
4. Voice Selection [ Page 34]
Several ways to select and play the VL1-m’s 128 voices.
5. The Controllers [ Page 38]
The VL1-m controllers and how they can be assigned and
edited for optimum control.
6. Mixing & The Modifiers [ Page 48]
Customizing the sound to suit your own personal needs.
7. Effects [ Page 58]
An overview of the built-in digital effects that you can use to
add depth and ambience to the VL1-m sound.
We recommend that you go through the chapters in sequence and actually
try out the various operations described. Once you’ve gone through the entire
Getting Started manual in this way, you should be familiar enough with the
VL1-m to need only the VL1-m Feature Reference manual in future.
5
Feature Reference
The Feature Reference Manual (this manual)
The Feature Reference manual is the “nuts and bolts” reference for
the VL1-m, individually describing its many functions in detail. The
Feature Reference manual is divided into five main sections, each describ-
ing the various functions within a particular VL1-m edit or utility mode.
1. General Operation [ Page 7]
2. Play Mode [ Page 13]
3. Edit Mode [ Page 21]
4. Utility Mode [ Page 151]
5. Appendix [ Page 177]
Once you have become familiar with the way the VL1-m works by
going through the Getting Started manual, you should only need to refer
to the Feature Reference manual from time to time to get details on func-
tions you’ve never used before, or refresh your memory about functions
that you don’t use very often.
Each section of the Feature Reference manual has its own table of
contents, so you should be able to locate any particular function quickly
and easily. Functions and references can also be located by referring to the
index at the back of the manual.
Conventions
The following conventions are used through the VL1-m manuals to
avoid confusion and make the text easier to read.
Buttons & Controls
Button and control names used on the VL1-m panel appear in the
text in capital letters within a border: “the P button”, for exam-
ple.
Parameter Names
Parameter names and other labels which appear on the VL1-m
display are printed in the courier typeface for easier identifica-
tion: for example, “adjust the “Balance” parameter as required”.
Parameter Ranges
An ellipsis is used to indicate a range of parameter values: e.g. “0
… 127”. This minimizes the confusion sometimes caused by the use
of a hyphen or dash for this purpose.

Feature Reference
General Operation
The VL1-m makes operation as easy as possible
by providing a consistent, logical control interface via
which its many functions and parameters can be
accessed and edited. Once you become familiar with
the system, operation should be smooth, efficient, and
easy.

The Three Main Modes
The VL1-m has three main modes: PLAY, EDIT, and UTILITY. Each of these
modes can be directly accessed by pressing the P, E, or U button, respec-
tively.
The PLAY mode is the one you use to select and play the VL1-m
voices. The PLAY mode also includes several “Controller Views” that
allow you to check controller assignments, the status of several
important performance parameters, and the quick edit assignments.
Pages 13 through 20.
All voice editing functions are accessed via the EDIT mode: controller
assignments, mixing, modifiers, effects, and more.
Pages 21 through 150.
The UTILITY mode includes a range of functions that affect overall
operation of the VL1-m rather than individual voices. For example:
master tuning, MIDI settings, disk operations, etc.

Finding Functions & Parameters
To facilitate access to the many functions provided, the EDIT and UTILITY mode
functions are organized into logical groups arranged in a hierarchical structure (the PLAY
mode is simple enough that it doesn’t require this type of structure). The basic structure
of the EDIT mode, for example, looks like this:
EDIT MODE
ELEMENT
EFFECT
CONTROLLER
MODIFIER
ENVELOPE
COMMON
MISCELLANEOUS
MISCELLANEOUS
Here you can see that the EDIT mode functions are divided into two main groups:
COMMON and ELEMENT, and that these are further sub-divided into related groups of
functions. The COMMON EFFECT group, for example, includes all the effect parameters
(flange, reverb, etc.) that apply to the entire voice. Here’s how you would access the
reverb parameters, starting from the PLAY mode:
Example: Locate the Effect Reverb Parameters
1. Press E
Pressing the E button from the PLAY or UTILITY mode will normally take
you to the initial EDIT display page (if the current voice has already been edited but not
stored, you will automatically return to the last EDIT mode page that was selected).
2. Press ¡ (“Com”)
Since you want the effect functions, which are in the common group, press the ¡
function button (immediately below “Com” on the display).

3. If Necessary, Press (“Efct”)
If the miscellaneous directory is showing (in this case “Misc” above the ¡ button
will be highlighted), press the button below “Efct” on the display to select the
effect directory.
4. Move the Cursor To “4:Reverberation” and Press [
Use the cursor buttons (or the - and = buttons, or the data dial)
to move the cursor to “4:Reverberation” and press the [ button. This will
take you to the first page of reverb parameters.
NOTES Notice that the top line of the display shows the “path” to the current
level or function: “
EDIT/COM/EFFECT/REVERBERATION
”.
This example illustrates the two methods used to move downward through the EDIT
mode levels: 1) press the appropriate function button and 2) move the cursor to the
desired selection and press [.
From any point within the structure you can move upward toward the topmost level
(in this case the initial EDIT mode display) by pressing the ] button. You move up
one level each time the ] button is pressed, until the topmost level is reached.
To exit from the EDIT mode itself you must press either the P or U
button, depending on the mode you want to switch to. You can exit from the EDIT mode
at any level by doing this, and you will be returned automatically to the same display
page the next time you press the E button as long as the voice being edited is not
stored or a new voices is not selected.

Other Navigation Aids
In addition to the standard procedures described in the previous section, the VL1-m
sometimes provides additional help in moving between related functions via the function
buttons.
In this example display page from the ELEMENT CONTROLLER group, “Bpag
(back page) and “Fpag” (forward page) appear above the § and function buttons.
In this case these buttons can be used to move forward and backward through the entire
list of controller functions so you don’t have to move up to the function directory and
then down to the next function every time you want to select a different element control-
ler page.
Also note the “Para” (Parameter) abbreviation above the button. This enables
you to go directly to the parameters related to the current page: in this case the vibrato
parameters.
From here you can go back to the vibrato controller page by pressing the
function button again (note that it is now labelled “Ctrl”), or to the vibrato key scaling
parameters by pressing , below “KSC” on the display.
Another variation appears in the COMMON EFFECT parameter displays. In most
cases the number of parameters available for each effect exceeds the capacity of the
display, so the ¡ and function buttons are used to scroll up and down the parameter
list — note the “>” and “<” arrows above the buttons in the display.

Selecting & Editing Parameters
Once you’ve locate the display page that contains the parameter(s) you want to edit,
simply use the cursor buttons to move the cursor to the parameter, and then use the data
dial or the = and - buttons to set the parameter as required. The data dial is ideal
for quickly covering a large range of settings, while the = and - buttons are best
for small stepwise changes.
Play Mode
The primary function of the PLAY mode is to
allow you to select and play voices. The VL1-m play
mode additionally offers a range of controller views
that let you check controller assignments, and simple
“quick edit” capability. Select the PLAY mode from
either the EDIT or UTILITY mode by pressing the
P button.

The Main Play Mode Display
When you select the PLAY mode by pressing the P button, the main PLAY
mode display will appear. This display includes a considerable amount of information in
addition to the name of the currently selected voice.
The Normal Voice Display
Voice number.
Element E1 and E2 names.

or D.Filter Controller *
* If controllers are assigned to both Pressure and Amplitude, the con-
troller with the highest amplitude depth value will be displayed. If
neither is assigned, the Dynamic Filter controller will be displayed (if
assigned).
The abbreviations in the section separated by a line at the bottom of the display
(“Cnt1”, “Cnt2”, etc) indicate the functions of the corresponding function buttons
below the display (described below).

Voice Selection
The VL1-m’s 128 voices are organized into 8 banks — “A” through “H” — of 16
voices each (8 x 16 = 128). These can be selected in sequence by using either the data
dial or the = and - buttons. Note that the voice number which appears on the
play mode display includes both the voice bank/number (“A01” through “A16”, “B01”
through “B16”, etc.) and the absolute voice number in parentheses following the bank/
number (“001” through “128”).
DEC INC
= and - Buttons
These are best for small, step-wise changes —
e.g. selecting adjacent voice numbers, or
numbers that are only a few steps away. Press
the = or - key briefly to decrement or
increment the voice number by one, or hold
either key for continuous decrementing or
incrementing in the corresponding direction.
The = and - buttons also have a
largestep function which allows you to skip
ahead or backward in increments of 16: press
either the = or - button while holding
the other button. The bank will switch auto-
matically if you cross a bank voice-number
boundary.
Data Dial
The data dial provides a fast, efficient way to
cover a broad range of voice numbers when,
for example, you’re looking for a voice but
don’t know the voice number. Simply rotate
the data dial clockwise for higher voice
numbers or counter-clockwise for lower voice
numbers while watching the display. The
banks are automatically switched when neces-
sary as the voice numbers are changed.

Using the Voice Directory
The VL1-m also features a voice directory display that can be more convenient than
the normal voice display in some situations. To switch to the voice directory display,
press the button — located directly below “Dir” on the display. The directory
display shows all 16 voices in the current bank. Voices can be selected using either the
data dial or = and - buttons as described above — the cursor will move to the
selected voice. You can also use the cursor keys to move the cursor to the next voice to
be selected (the voice is not actually selected in this case — the cursor will flash), then
press the [ key to actually select the specified voice. This method lets you switch
directly to the specified voice without having to go through all others in between
To return to the normal voice display press the ] or P button.
The Sound Function
You can check the sound of the current voice in the PLAY mode directly from the
VL1-m panel: press the
ENTER/SOUND
key. The pitch played is C4. When a voice is
played in this way all 14 controller parameters (“Pressure” through “Absorption”) are
turned off.
