8.4.4 PITCH PARAMETERS MENU
1. To access the PITCH PARAMETERS menu, press the POLY EDIT switch.
2. The POLY EDIT switch will then start ashing and the VOICE PARAMETERS
menu is then shown. Press the EDIT switch again to show the PITCH
PARAMETERS menu:
CAUTION: If you ever suspect that your DeepMind 12 seems to be out of tune, it is
a good idea to check the values for TRANSPOSE and GLOBAL-TUNE in this menu.
3. To navigate the options in the PITCH PARAMETERS menu, use the BANK/UP or
BANK/DOWN switches.
4. Selected parameters are adjusted using the -/NO or +/YES switches, the
rotary knob or the DATA ENTRY fader. The rotary knob has a click which
allows very accurate control. The fader allows rapid adjustment across the
full range.
The following options are available in the PITCH PARAMETERS menu:
• TRANSPOSE - This option allows you to TRANSPOSE notes played on the
keyboard. The notes played can be transposed in steps of single semitones.
The TRANSPOSE range is from -48 to +48, and the default TRANSPOSE
setting is 0. For example, a transpose of -7 would mean that all played keys
would be transposed down by seven semitones.
• PORTA-TIME - This option is the same as the PORTAMENTO knob on the
surface. Any changes to the knob will be reected here.
The PORTAMENTO function makes the pitch of a note glide up or down from
the previously played note. The PORTAMENTO knob controls the time taken
to transition from the previous note to the currently played note.
The PORTAMENTO range is from 0 (0.00s - instant change of note) to 255
(10.00s of glide). The default PORTAMENTO setting is 0 (0.00s/O).

• PORTA-MODE - This option allows you to congure the PORTAMENTO
function to operate in dierent ways depending on your requirements. The
options are:
• Normal - In this mode the slide time between played notes is a xed
time, regardless of overlapping notes or pitch distance. The sliding
between notes is linear.
• Fingered - In this mode the slide time between played notes is a xed
time, regardless of pitch distance. Sliding is only applied when notes
overlap. The sliding between notes is linear.
• Fix-Rate - In this mode the slide time between played notes is a xed
rate, regardless of overlapping notes. The pitch distance from note to
note will aect the time it takes to slide between notes. The sliding
between notes is linear.
• Fix-Fing - In this mode the slide time between played notes is a xed
rate. The pitch distance from note to note will aect the time it takes
to slide between notes. Sliding is only applied when notes overlap. The
sliding between notes is linear.
• Exp - In this mode the slide time between played notes is a xed rate.,
regardless of overlapping notes. The pitch distance from note to note
will aect the time it takes to slide between notes. The sliding between
notes is exponential.
• Exp-Fing - In this mode the slide time between played notes is a xed
rate. The pitch distance from note to note will aect the time it takes
to slide between notes. Sliding is only applied when notes overlap. The
sliding between notes is exponential.
• Fixed+2 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch two semitones
above the played note, regardless of overlapping notes or pitch distance.
The sliding between notes is exponential.
• Fixed-2 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch two semitones
below the played note, regardless of overlapping notes or pitch
distance. The sliding between notes is exponential.
• Fixed+5 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch ve semitones
above the played note, regardless of overlapping notes or pitch distance.
The sliding between notes is exponential.
• Fixed-5 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch ve semitones
below the played note, regardless of overlapping notes or pitch
distance. The sliding between notes is exponential.
• Fixed+12 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch twelve
semitones (one octave) above the played note, regardless of overlapping
notes or pitch distance. The sliding between notes is exponential.
• Fixed-12 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch twelve
semitones (one octave) below the played note, regardless of
overlapping notes or pitch distance. The sliding between notes is
exponential.
• Fixed+24 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch twenty-
four semitones (two octaves) above the played note, regardless of
overlapping notes or pitch distance. The sliding between notes is
exponential.
• Fixed-24 - In this mode the note always starts at a pitch twenty-
four semitones (two octaves) below the played note, regardless of
overlapping notes or pitch distance. The sliding between notes is
exponential.
