Synthesizer Mode
The synthesizes Mode of this keyboard provides the tools for
creating your own original tones. Simply select one of the built-
in tones and change its parameters to create your own original
sound. You can even store your sounds in memory and select it
using the same procedure as that used to select a preset tone.
Synthesizer Mode iets
The following describes how to use each of he functions avail-
_ able in the py nealeer Mode.
Synthesizer Mode Parameters
The preset tones that are built into this keyboard ‘ consist of a
number of parameters. To create a user tone, you first recall a
General MIDI tone (000 to 127) or a synthesized tone (128 to 159)
and then change its parameters to change it to your own tone.
Note that drum set tones (160 through 167) cannot be used as
_ the basis of a user tone.
The illustration below shows the parameters that make up the
preset tones and what each parameter does. As can be seen in
the illustration, these parameters can be divided into four groups,
each of which i is described i in detail below.

NOTES
Amp envelope set values in the range of 000 to 048 are for volume
_ envelopes for a decaying note, while values in the range of 049 to
137 are for volume envelopes that sustain the note.
(3) Tone Pitch Parameters -
‘Ml Pitch
This parameter controls the overall pitch of the tone.
Mi Pitch Envelope Set
This parameter provides a variety of pitch envelopes from which
you can choose.
ENOTES
A value of 00 specifies no change, a value from 01 to 19 changes
the vibrato, and a value ot 20 to 49 changes a parameter other than
the vibrato. .
