DSP linker

Sometimes the effect is not applied.

Q)

When I set the effect using the linker and made a sound on the keyboard, the effector may or may not be applied.

A)

If no effect is applied, first check the map in the sound simulator to see if the modified data has been transferred to the target with a cross in the map window.
Next, check if you have correctly performed "Change Effect" and "Change Mixer" on the simulator.
On the tone editor, check that the "Direct Level", "Effect Send", and "Effect Level" of the mixer are properly raised.
If you don't see the effect when you reload the data you were working on before, check to see if you have a binary save of the tone or map file you were working on.
It is possible that uneffected data is being transferred to the target when the sound simulator is launched.

Distorts when reverb maximizes Effect Send Level

Q)

Since it is difficult to understand how the reverb is applied, the sound will be distorted when the Effect Send Level is maximized.

A)

It is a specification.
If it is distorted, there is no choice but to lower the level.

There may be no sound and noise.

Q)

Occasionally there is no sound and it becomes noise.
I'm trying to change the Effect's PAN in the Tone Editor's mixer and move it to SndSim for playback. Files are not saved by automatic transmission.
There is no problem when the tool is restarted.

A)

Due to SCSI communication problems, this may happen if you frequently change the parameters of the tool or move the scroll bar etc. violently. Be careful when changing parameters.
Also, there is no problem with the data itself, so please restart and proceed with the work.

What are TYPEs 1 to 4 of the reverb module?

Q)

What is the difference between TYPEs 1 to 4 in the parameters of the DSP linker reverb module?

A)

Think of it as the difference in the size of the hall (BOX).

Real-time parameter changes.

Q)

How can I change the effect parameters in real time (while playing a song)? Should I download it from the linker while ringing with SndSim?

A)

You can check the effect in real time by executing "Parameter change-> Link-> Download" with the DSP linker.

I get the error "Insufficient work ram".

Q)

When I try to download with the DSP linker, I get the error message "Insufficient work ram".

A)

The created effect algorithm is linked by selecting [Link] from the [Process Menu] in the [DSP Linker].
If the link is successful, the "Link Result Information" dialog is displayed.
The value indicated by "Free Area Required" in this dialog is the size of the DSP workspace reserved in the map.
Also, when configuring the DSP workram in the sound simulator, the leading addresses are separated by 2000H.
Even if you try to set a finer address than that, it will be automatically shifted back to a well-separated address.

"DSPRAM Size too small."

The above error message is that the area of RAM (on the development board) reserved in the memory map settings is smaller than the size of the DSP work RAM required for the DSP program you are trying to download due to a memory mapping problem on the target. Therefore, the download is stopped.
Change the memory map settings or the algorithm of the DSP program.
