PROG P2: OSC/Pitch 2–1: OSC1 Basic
39
Layer means that the two Multisamples will be layered
together, both at full volume, for the entire range of the
crossfade.
Crossfade Curves
MS2 (Mid Hi), MS3 (Mid Lo), MS4 (Low)
These are the settings for the second, third, and fourth
velocity zones. The parameters for MS2 and MS3 are exactly
the same as those for MS1, as described above.
The parameters for MS4 are also similar to those for MS1,
except that MS4 has no settings for Bottom Vel. (which is
always fixed at 1), Xfd, or Curve.
OSC1 Frequency
Oct (Octave) [–2[32'], –1[16'], +0[8'], +1[4']]
This sets the basic pitch of the Oscillator, in octaves. The
default is +0[8']. The standard octave of a multisample is +0
[8'].
Transpose [–12...+12]
This adjusts the pitch in semitones, over a range of ±1
octave.
Tune [–1200...+1200]
This adjusts the pitch in cents, over a range of ±1 octave. A
cent is 1/100 of a semitone.
Freq Ofs (Frequency Offset) [–10.0Hz ... +10Hz]
This adjusts the pitch by increments of 0.1 Hz. Frequency
Offset is different from Tune in that, when used to detune
the two oscillators, it can create a constant beat frequency
across the range of the keyboard.
2–1b:OSC1 Multisample
“Oscillator Mode” Drums
MS1 (DKit)
These parameters appear when the Oscillator Mode is set to
Drum Kit.
Drum Kit [000...031 (INT), 032...143 (U–A...U–G),
144...152 (GM)]
This selects a drum kit.
For 000(INT)–143(U–G), you can use Global P5: Drum Kit to
edit the instrument assignments.
Drum Kit Frequency
Oct (Octave) [–2[32'], –1[16'], +0[8'], +1[4']]
This adjusts the pitch in octave units. When using a drum
kit, set the Octave to 8'.
When editing a drum program, you must set this
parameter to 8'. With other settings, the sounds of the
drum kit will be assigned to the wrong notes of the
keyboard.
Transpose [–12...+12]
This adjusts the location of the instruments in the selected
drum kit. Unless you need to change this, leave it at 0.
Tune [–1200...+1200]
This adjusts the pitch in one-cent units.
The pitch of each drum kit can be adjusted in Global P5:
Drum kit.
Freq Ofs (Frequency Offset) [–10.0Hz ... +10Hz]
This adjusts the pitch by increments of 0.1 Hz. Frequency
Offset is different from Tune in that, when used to detune
the two oscillators, it can create a constant beat frequency
across the range of the keyboard.
