Main Features
Organ Features Virtual Tonewheel Sound Generator
The VK-8M features a Virtual Tonewheel sound generator that perfectly simulates the sound-production mechanism of traditional tone wheel organs. This rapid response is especially valuable when you use characteristic organ performance techniques such as glissando. Since all parts upper, lower, and pedal are completely polyphonic, notes arent cut off regardless of your performance technique.

Amp Modeling (COSM)

This technology analyzes the characteristics of the most popular amps and reproduces their warm, tube-like sounds, as well as the unique sonic characteristics of their cabinets. You get four amp types, each with a different sound, allowing you to perform using everything from clean to fat, overdriven sounds.

Rotary Sound

An effect algorithm using Rolands COSM technology creates a faithful rotary speaker simulation thats essential for a great organ sound. Enjoy the realistic rotary sound simply by connecting a keyboard amp (such as the KC series) or powered monitor (such as the DS series).

Integrated Controllers

Controllers such as the HARMONIC bars, [ROTARY SLOW/FAST] button, and OVERDRIVE knob have been brought together with the sound module. No need to hassle with a bunch of connectionsjust connect your own keyboard and start performing with authentic organ sounds.

Includes Input Jack

The unit includes an audio input jack, allowing you to input sounds from an external keyboard. Using the input mix function, you can output the sounds of both the keyboard and the VK-8M without the need for a separate mixer. The expression pedal function adds expression to the input sound, and the Active Expression function further allows you to use the input sound as the Active Expression tone.
New Expression Pedal Function (Active Expression)
The expression pedal is an indispensable function for organ performances. When performing with the input sound layered over the organ sound, the organ volume increases as you press the expression pedal, but when Active Expression is used, the input sound volume makes a sudden jump to near maximum level. Since the expression pedal can be used not only to change the volume, but the tone as well, it lets you enjoy highly expressive performances.

About the Virtual Tonewheel Sound Generator
A traditional tone wheel organ produces the sound by 91 toothed wheels called tone wheels. Each tone wheel produces a different pitch. A motor is used to rotate these tone wheels past electromagnetic coils, and as the teeth of each wheel pass by the corresponding electromagnetic coil, an audio signal is generated. The combination of harmonic bars and the notes that are pressed then select the audio signals that are output, producing the sound of the organ. The virtual tonewheel sound generator of the VK-8M uses digital technology to precisely re-create the soundproduction mechanism of a tone wheel organ. The 91 toothed wheels are constantly rotating digitally, and are able to produce sound at any time. The sound produced by these virtual tonewheels is determined by the combination of harmonic bars and the state of the notes played on the keyboardexactly as on traditional tone wheel organs.
How the Organ Sound are Created

Tone Wheels

Tone wheels rotate constantly, and will therefore speak the instant you play a note. The virtual tonewheel sound generator of the VK-8M is also producing sound constantly, allowing very rapid response when you play a note. This rapid response is especially valuable when you use characteristic organ performance techniques such as glissando. The organ sound consists of a fundamental and eight harmonics, and these are mixed according to the combination of the harmonic bars. You can use the harmonic bars to modify the tone even while you play, allowing a high degree of expressive flexibility.

Percussion

Tone wheel percussion is used when you want to add an attack to the notes you play, making the sound more crisp. Relative to the pitch of the note you play, you can specify either the second (SECOND) or third (THIRD) partial as the pitch of the percussion sound, and you can decrease the percussion volume (SOFT) or lengthen its decay (SLOW). The percussion on tone wheel organs is of a type called single-trigger, meaning that percussion was not applied to all the notes that were played, but only to the note that was pressed first. If you release the currently-played key(s), percussion will sound for the next-played note. If you play legato (with notes smoothly connected), percussion will be applied only to the first note, and not to subsequent notes. If you play staccato, percussion will be applied to all notes. If you play rapidly when using percussion, the percussion circuit may not keep up with your playing, causing the percussion sound to become softer. However, the VK8M allows you to adjust the speed of recovery so that it will keep up even with rapid playing (p. 44). On a tone wheel organ, the way in which percussion is applied is a very important element in enhancing the expressiveness of the performance. On tone wheel organs, the 1' harmonic bar was used to produce the percussion sound. This means that when you add percussion, the sound of the 1' harmonic bar will no longer be heard. Also, percussion will be applied only to the Upper Part. On tone wheel organs, turning off percussion [SOFT] button would lower the volume of the organ, but the VK-8M allows you to adjust it so the volume of the organ wont change when percussion [SOFT] button is switched on/off (p. 43).

As you can see from the relation of the pitches, the 5-1/3' pitch is unique in that it is not arranged in order of pitch. The reason is that the 5-1/3' sound blends not with the 8' (fundamental), but with the 16' pitch. Acoustic instruments produce sound consisting of frequencies at integer multiples of the fundamental frequency; double, triple, and so on. These are called integer harmonics. Relative to the 8' pitch that is the basic pitch of an organ, the 5-1/3' pitch is not an integer multiple, and does not blend. However, relative to the 16' pitch (which is one octave lower), 5-1/3' is an integer multiple and therefore does blend. (Starting at 16', the 5-1/3' pitch is three times higher.) Because 5-1/3' blends with 16', these two harmonic bars are colored differently than the other harmonic bars, and are placed together.

VK-8M_e.book 24

Changing the Organ Sound (Wheel Type, Leakage Level)
Tone Wheel and Leakage Noise are important elements in creating tone wheel organ sounds. Tone Wheel Tone wheels are the ninety-one metal disks that produce the sound on tone wheel organs. Teeth are cut into the edge of each disk, and sound is generated by rotating the disks past an electrical coil at a fixed speed. The VK-8M digitally simulates the tone wheel mechanism of a tone wheel organ, and thus provides the rapid response and full polyphony that characterize these instruments. The sounds that are produced by the tone wheels of a tone wheel organ are not precisely pure sine waves, since they are affected by the manufacturing precision of the wheel and by the characteristics of the analog circuitry. However, it is these imperfections in the waveform that give a tone wheel organ its unique character. Leakage Noise On tone wheel organs, the sound of the note that was pressed was slightly contaminated by audio signals from tone wheels not related to that note. Formerly, this was seen as a problem, but today this idiosyncrasy is considered an important element of the distinctive sound of a vintage organ.

Percussion on a tone wheel organ (Single Trigger Algorithm)
The percussion on tone wheel organs did not apply to all notes that were played. It was applied only to notes which were played simultaneously from a condition where no notes were being played. When notes were played legato (smoothly and connectedly), percussion was applied only to the first-played note. When notes were played staccato (articulating each note separately), percussion was applied to all notes. This method is referred to as single trigger algorithm, and is a very important element in organ performance. On tone wheel organs, percussion was produced by an analog circuit. For this reason, when there was only a very short time interval from when one key was released until the next key was pressed, the percussion circuit was unable to recharge fully, causing the percussion to sound at a lower volume. The VK-8M simulates this behavior, and also allows you to modify the organ voice settings to adjust the recharge time characteristics of the circuit (p. 44).

VK-8M_e.book 28

Adding Modulation to the Sound (Vibrato and Chorus)
The vibrato effect cyclically modulates the pitch of organ voice sounds. The chorus effect mixes the normal sound of the organ with a sound to which vibrato has been applied, adding richness and spaciousness to the sound.

VK-8M_e.book 29

Using the COSM Rotary Speaker Effect (Rotary Sound)
Rotary Sound is an effect which adds the modulation that is produced when organ voices are used with a rotary speaker. On most rotary speakers, the high-frequency speaker and low-frequency speaker rotate at different speeds. The VK-8M can simulate this type of complex modulation.

fig.01-27

The VK-8M uses an effect algorithm based on COSM technology, and is able to faithfully reproduce the modulation of an actual rotary speaker and the irregularities of its rotation. You can also make sophisticated settings, such as the characteristics of the amplifier (p. 30), the resonance of the speaker cabinet, and the distance of the microphone which picks up the sound of the rotary speaker (p. 42).

This will be ON when the [VIBRATO AND CHORUS] knob is turned to the right, and OFF when turned to the left. When you press the VIBRATO AND CHORUS [ON] button, this will return to the default setting.
When the setting is -50+5, or -1000+100
The illumination patterns of the AMPLIFIER type and REVERB type indicators offer an approximate reading of the value of a setting. For example, if a value is set to 0, the SPRING indicator under REVERB type, and the TYPE 1 indicator under AMPLIFIER type will both be lit. The AMPLIFIER type indicators indicate values in the negative direction, while the REVERB type indicators indicate values in the positive direction.
Turn the [VIBRATO AND CHORUS] knob clockwise to increase the value, or counterclockwise to decrease it. When you press VIBRATO AND CHORUS [ON], this will return to the default setting.

When setting things other than the MIDI channel
1. Hold down the [BANK] buttons and press the [TONE
WHEEL] button. The indicators of [1][6] buttons ([1]-[3] buttons) will blink.
On tone wheel organs, percussion was produced by an analog circuit. This meant that if only a very short time elapsed from when the keys were released until the next key was pressed, the percussion circuit was unable to recharge fully, and the percussion sound that was added would therefore be lower in volume. This also meant that even if legato was broken during a rapid trill, etc., an appropriate amount of percussion was added. The percussion charge time parameter adjusts this charge time.
2. Press one of the [1][6] buttons ([1]-[3] buttons) to select
the parameter that you want to edit. There are nine MIDI-related parameters. Pressing the [H-BAR PART] button causes the buttons color to change and allows you to select all parameters.

MIDI Implementation 4. Supplementary material
Decimal/Hexadecimal Table
MIDI uses 7-bit hexadecimal values to indicate data values and the address and size of exclusive messages. The following table shows the correspondence between decimal and hexadecimal numbers. * Hexadecimal values are indicated by a following H. ++++++++++++ | D | H || D | H || D | H || D | H | ++++++++++++ | 0 | 00H || 32 | 20H || 64 | 40H || 96 | 60H | | 1 | 01H || 33 | 21H || 65 | 41H || 97 | 61H | | 2 | 02H || 34 | 22H || 66 | 42H || 98 | 62H | | 3 | 03H || 35 | 23H || 67 | 43H || 99 | 63H | | 4 | 04H || 36 | 24H || 68 | 44H || 100 | 64H | | 5 | 05H || 37 | 25H || 69 | 45H || 101 | 65H | | 6 | 06H || 38 | 26H || 70 | 46H || 102 | 66H | | 7 | 07H || 39 | 27H || 71 | 47H || 103 | 67H | | 8 | 08H || 40 | 28H || 72 | 48H || 104 | 68H | | 9 | 09H || 41 | 29H || 73 | 49H || 105 | 69H | | 10 | 0AH || 42 | 2AH || 74 | 4AH || 106 | 6AH | | 11 | 0BH || 43 | 2BH || 75 | 4BH || 107 | 6BH | | 12 | 0CH || 44 | 2CH || 76 | 4CH || 108 | 6CH | | 13 | 0DH || 45 | 2DH || 77 | 4DH || 109 | 6DH | | 14 | 0EH || 46 | 2EH || 78 | 4EH || 110 | 6EH | | 15 | 0FH || 47 | 2FH || 79 | 4FH || 111 | 6FH | | 16 | 10H || 48 | 30H || 80 | 50H || 112 | 70H | | 17 | 11H || 49 | 31H || 81 | 51H || 113 | 71H | | 18 | 12H || 50 | 32H || 82 | 52H || 114 | 72H | | 19 | 13H || 51 | 33H || 83 | 53H || 115 | 73H | | 20 | 14H || 52 | 34H || 84 | 54H || 116 | 74H | | 21 | 15H || 53 | 35H || 85 | 55H || 117 | 75H | | 22 | 16H || 54 | 36H || 86 | 56H || 118 | 76H | | 23 | 17H || 55 | 37H || 87 | 57H || 119 | 77H | | 24 | 18H || 56 | 38H || 88 | 58H || 120 | 78H | | 25 | 19H || 57 | 39H || 89 | 59H || 121 | 79H | | 26 | 1AH || 58 | 3AH || 90 | 5AH || 122 | 7AH | | 27 | 1BH || 59 | 3BH || 91 | 5BH || 123 | 7BH | | 28 | 1CH || 60 | 3CH || 92 | 5CH || 124 | 7CH | | 29 | 1DH || 61 | 3DH || 93 | 5DH || 125 | 7DH | | 30 | 1EH || 62 | 3EH || 94 | 5EH || 126 | 7EH | | 31 | 1FH || 63 | 3FH || 95 | 5FH || 127 | 7FH | ++++++++++++ D: decimal H: hexadecimal * Decimal expressions such as used for MIDI channel, Bank Select, and Program Change will be the value 1 greater than the decimal value given in the above table. * Since each MIDI byte carries 7 significant data bits, each byte can express a maximum of 128 different values. Data for which higher resolution is required must be transmitted using two or more bytes. For example a value indicated as a two-byte value of aa bbH would have a value of aa x 128 + bb. * For a signed number (), 00H = -64, 40H = 0, and 7FH = +63. I.e., the decimal equivalent will be 64 less than the decimal value given in the above table. For a two-byte signed number, 00 00H = -8192, 40 00H = 0, and 7F 7FH = +8191. For example the decimal expression of aa bbH would be aa bbH - 40 00H = aa x 128 + bb - 64 x 128.
Examples of System Exclusive Messages and Calculating the Checksum
Roland exclusive messages (RQ1, DT1) are transmitted with a checksum at the end of the data (before F7) to check that the data was received correctly. The value of the checksum is determined by the address and data (or size) of the exclusive message.
