Using realtime controls to edit
the sound or effects
Youcanusetherealtimecontrols(theSELECTbutton
andknobs1–4)tomodifythesoundandcontrolthe
arpeggiator.
1. PresstheREALTIMECONTROLSSELECTbutton
toswitchtherealtimecontrolfunctionbetween
TONE,USER,orARP.
Eachtimeyoupressthebutton,you’llcyclethroughA,
B,andCmodes,andthecorrespondingLEDwilllight
up.
Note: IfCC#70–79areassignedtoREALTIME
CONTROLSAmodeandBmode,thesoundthatyou
editusingknobs1–4willbesavedwhenyouwritethe
program.ArpeggiatorsettingsyouadjustinCmode
willalsobesaved.
2. Modifythesoundbyturningtheknobthatyou
wanttocontrol.Seebelowfordetails.
TONE controls
InTONEsectionyoucanturnknobs1–4tocontrolor
editthefollowingitems.
Note: Whenaknobisinthecenterposition
(12 o’clock),theparameterwillhavethevalue
specifiedbytheprogram.
Knob 1: CUTOFF
Thisadjuststhefilter’scutofffrequency.Adjustingthe
cutofffrequencywillmodifythebrightnessofthe
sound.
Knob 2: RESONANCE
Thisadjuststhefilter’sresonancelevel.
Adjustingthefilterresonancelevelwillboostthe
soundintheregionofthefrequency,givinga
distinctivecharactertothesound.
Knob 3: EG INT
ThisadjuststhefilterEGintensity(thedepthofhow
theEGaffectsthefilter).
Usingtheknobwillchangetheamountofhowthe
filterisaffectedbytheEG.Normally,turningtheknob
towardtheleftwillmakethefilterEGshallower,and
turningtheknobtowardtherightwillmakeitdeeper.
SincethefilterEGoperatesrelativetothefiltercutoff
frequency,bothknobs1and3willcontrolthetonal
changeproducedbythefilter.
Knob 4: RELEASE
ThisadjuststhefilterandampEGreleasetime,
changingthetimefromnote‐offuntilthesoundisno
longerheard.
Turningtheknobwillchangethereleasetimeofthe
filterEGandtheampEG.Normally,turningtheknob
towardtheleftwillshortenthereleasetime,and
turningtheknobtowardtherightwilllengthenit.
Example:
1. Selectprogram“Cate
gory:KEYBOARDA066:
DarkR&BPiano.
Thisisanelectricpianosound.Let’strymodifyingthe
soundalittle.
2. PresstheREALTIMECONTROLSSELECTbutton
toselectTONE(theLEDwilllight‐up).
3. Whileyouplay,slowlyturnknob1(filter
frequency)about3/4tow
ardtheright.
Thepianosoundwillbecomemorelikeasy
nthsweep.
4. Next,turnknob2(filterresonance)about3/4
towardtherightaswell.
5. Leaveknob2initsposition,andtryturningknob
1totheleftandright.
Raisingthe resonancewillchangethesoundasthough
