Thebutton’sLEDwilllight.Nowyoucanusethe
knobstomodifythesoundsandeffects,andusethe
slidersandswitchestocontrolKARMA.
Youcanusethesecontrolsregardlessofthepage
shownontheLCDdisplay.However,thereisapage
whichprovidesmoreinformationabouttheControl

2. GototheP0:ControlSurfacepagebypressingthe
ControlSurfacetab,locatedinthelowerrightof
theLCDscreen.
ThispageshowsalloftheControlSurfacesliders,
knobs,andswitches,alongwiththeircurrent

Using knobs to vary the timbre
WhentheRTKNOBS/KARMAbuttonislit,theeight
knobsatthetopoftheControlSurfacemodulate
variousaspectsofthesoundsandeffects.
Knobs1‐4havededicatedfunctions,asprintedonthe
frontpanel:FilterCutoff,FilterResonance,FilterEG
Intensity,andReleaseTime.
Knobs5‐8canbeassigne
dtoawidevarietyof
functions.Often(thoughnotalways),knobs5and6
modulatesynthesisparameters,knob7controlsthe

Using Tone Adjust
ToneAdjustletsyouuseallofthesliders,knobs,and
switchesontheControlSurfacetoeditProgram
parameters,liketheknobsandslidersonananalog
synth.Eachphysicalcontrolcanbeassignedtoanyone
ofanumberofProgramparameters.

Programssupportacertainsetofparameters;eachEXi
alsohasitsownsetofparameters.ThePolysixEX
worksparticularlywellwithToneAdjust,solet’stakea
lookatitnow.
1. InProgrammode,pressthebuttonforBankI‐A.
2.
SelectProgramI‐
A074PhunkyPowerBass.
ThisusesthePolysixEX.
3. UnderCONTROLASSIGN,presstheTONE
ADJ/EQbutton.
4. Playthekeyboardwhilemovingsliders1‐4and
knobs1‐2.
Noticeastheknobgraphicsonthedisplaymoveas
well.Sliders1‐4controltheenvelopeshape;knobs1‐2
controlthefiltercutoffandre

Surfacesliders,knobs,andswitches.
Noticehowthegraphicsrespond,aswell.Youcanalso

Restoring the sound to its original state
Whenyou’reeditingaProgram,youcancompareback
andforthbetweentheeditedandsavedversions.
1. Pressthefront‐panelCOMPAREswitch.
TheCOMPARELEDwilllight,andtheProgram’s 
savedsettingswillberecalled.
2. PresstheCOMPAREswitchagain,toreturntothe
editedsettings.
TheCOMPARELEDwillgodark,andthesou
nd
will
returntotheeditedversion.Youcanswitchbackand
forthasmanytimesasyoulike.
Resetting individual controllers
Youcanalsoresetindividualcontrollerstotheirsaved
values,suchasthevectorjoystickoranycontrol
surfaceslider,knob,orswitch.Todoso:
1. Holddownthefront‐panelRESETCONTROLS
switch.
2. Whileholdingdowntheswitch,moveorpressthe
controlthatyou’dliketoreset.
3. ReleasetheRESETCONTROLSswitch.
Thecontrolle
rwillbereset.
