@ Therefore,the PAS system Electone isdesigned and so constructed to produce many andrich tonecolors

by employing both ofthe tonecreating methods(Synthesizing System and FilterSystem)accordingto

each sound source waveshape. Naturally,severalsound source waveshapeswith theirown peculiarovertonesaregeneratedandused accordingto tonecolor.
.
* Conventionalelectronic orgahswith oscillatorsasthe sound source would require a com plicated circuitif
they were to have two differingmethodsto produce these tones,dueto themethod ofcreatingthesound
wavesaswellasto thekey switches.With thePAS System organ,however,itispossibleto processthetwo
system sdigitally.

By pressing down the single contactkey switchesanumberofpuresounds(sinewaves)related to

overtones can be created at the same tim e. By synthesizing these soundsasdesired a flute fam ily

tonescan be produced,and atthesametimeamultiplenumberofsoundsourcewaves(sawtooth

#waves,squarewaves,andasymmetricalrectangularwaves),eachwiththeirpeculiarovertones,canbe
created,correspondingto the tonesuchasin thefiltersystem .

Moreover,whenVCF(VoltageControlledFilter)isusedforfiltercircuit,betternaturalsoundcanbecreated through thetimeshiftingofharmonicspectrum.

The following is an explanation of the principlesof the sound source wave generation in the digital
Electone,aswellasan outline ofthefunctionsofthecircuit.

isconnectedrespectively to oneofthevariablecontactpoints(T)andthet'

* Functionsofthe Key Coder

TheKeyCoderdetectswhich keyboard,UK,LK orPK,aswellastheposition (interval)ofthekeyin

contactwith the block terminaland the note terminals. Thekey code dataindicatingthekeyswhich
havebeen detected are successively outputthrough tim esharing.

* Key code data processing
The key codedatasuccessively sentfrom theK f isreceivedby theCLP up toam aximum of12notcs
in the orderthekey ispressedandm em orized.Each key codedatawhich hasbeen m em orized isoutputin

order,timedatclock4(:
%1p.
S) (Thistimingisreferredtoaschanneltime).
Also,each key code data received and memorizedby theCLP iscirculated within theIC and afte'
r1lyS
isagain output.
Therefore,the key code data which hasonce been received and m em orized isoutputatregularintervals

(12JzSfrequency)regardless-oftheinputtimingofsimilardatarepeatedlysentinfrom theK'C.Withthis,
thisdata ism em orized every 12#S. Thism ovementoftheCLP willbeexplained takingChannel12ofTV
asan exam ple.

By turning each channelatan intervalof IpS successjvely,from Channel1 to Channell2,the screen

(key codedata)willchangewitheach IPS.Thatis,eachrespectivescreenwillappear(output)onlyduring

thetim eofthechannel.
In this way,asthechannelsare turned onechannelata time repeatedly,the sam e picture screen will

appearevery l2JzSaslongasthereisabroadcast(thekeyisbeingpressed).Ofcourse,forchannelswhere
thereisnobroadcast(keyisnotpressed)nopicturewillappear.

In thisway,theCLP has12channelsforreceiving,mem orizing and repeated outputin succession ofkey

code data for 12 notes. M oreover,the determ ination ofwhich channelofthe 12 channelswillbeallocated forwhich key codedatawilldepend on thefollowing conditionswithin theIC oftheCLP.

* Allocation Status

(1) The1stchannelisallocatedexclusively tothekeycodedataofPK.

(2) The2nd channelto the l2thchannelarechannelsexclusivelyformanualkeys(in theorderthekeys
arepressed)with allocation madefirstforevery oddnumberfollowedby evennumbered channels,
such as3rd channel-'
>5th channel,'+ 11th channel'+ 12th channel'+4th channel....12th channel.

(topreventoverlappingofthedata)
(3) Only onekeycodedataisallocatedforthesamesinglechannel.

From theoutputkeycodedataofthisCLP,theoctavecodedata(BI''

V )aresenttothefrequencydatageneratingcircuit(tobeexplainedlater),toproducethekeyin-

tervalindicatedby theintervalfrequencyinstructiondata(instructionstoproducetheintervalfrequencycorrespondingtothekeypressed),andthecombinationoftheircode.
* On theotherhand,thekeyboarddata(Kl'h-Kz)areaddedtothedistributor(explainedlater),whichis
necessary fordeterm ining which keyboard key waspressed,and the generated sound isdividedby keyboard.
* In otherwords,when generating the sound,the intervalsoud which hasbeen produced can be divided by
keyboard,regardless of the keyboard and so am ong the key code data the octave data and note data are
added to the tone signalgeneration circuit.

M oreover,with theCLP thefollowipg actionswilltakeplace according tohow thekeyboard ispressed.

KEY-ON AGA IN
W hen the sam e key is pressed again while the sound is decaying,this function is activated to bring the
sound back to the t'
irstrise.

Thedecayingdata(Dl)isdetectedinsidetheIC oftheCLP,andwhenthesame note asthisdataisinputby the key coder,oneCC and one AP issentoutand reallocated to thesam echannel'
,thesound then
generatesfrom the start.

* TRUNCATE

When 11channelsforMK area1loccupied(11MK soundsgenerating)andoneisdecaying,pressingthe

12th M K willdetect and clearthe channelthatis decaying the fastest,and forcefully feed the data of the
12th M K pressed into thatchannel.
Thisdecayingstateisconstantly detected within theIC oftheCLP receivingthedecayingcondition data

from theEG (envelopegenerator),throughtheG1''

heG3terminals.

5.Sound Generation ControlDala

The CLP synchronizes and detects the following kinds of inform ation,instructing the sound generation
condition such as start,end,and envelope of the generated sound corresponding to the above-m entioned in-

tervalfrequencyinstructiondata(V1'

* AP (Attack pulse)

As the tone generating circuitfor flute ism ade up of two system sfor the E-70 there are 2 ROM s.

* First,with thekeyboarddata(k7 ,Kc),thatindicatesto which keyboard,UK,LK,orPK thekeypressed

belongs, am ong the keyboard data from the CLP,it can be known which keyboard key is allocated to
wh'

* Next,the voltagem ode added to the term inalsFU l'v'FU3,and FPl'w FPc determ ines,according to the

function selectorswitch (foreach channel,eachkeyboard),whatkindofenvelopewavetogeneratetothe

key data allocated to each channel.

* Moreover,the Attack Clock Generatorto determine the tone rising time (Attack Time)and theDecay
ClockGeneratortodeterminethetonedecayingtime(DecayTime)arepreparedforeachkeyboard.
Withkeyboarddata(Kl,K2),EGIIdiscriminateswhichkeyboardtoneisallocatedtowhichchannelandat
thesametim e,ittakesinto clock pulseforeachkeyboard by channels.
The pulse taken into is com puted by the counter for each channel and then,the envelope voltage isread

outinorderaccordingtothecomputedvaluefrom EM (explainedlater).
Since the Attack Tim e and Decay Tim e allocated to each channelzare controlled by each keyboard and the
notes are processed by pulse count by tim e sharing in accordance with each channel,each tone can be
independently controlled with Attack and Decay.

(Example) ln thecaseofAttackRepeatEffect(FUI=1,FU2=0,FU3=0) * D (=DecayTime)
