Altering Programs to fit within a Combination
You can make various changes to Programs within the
context of a particular Combination, to make them fit better
with other Programs, or to create particular sonic effects.
These changes do not affect the original Programs, or how
those Programs sound in other Combinations.
Timbre Parameters: OSC
Force OSC Mode
Normally this should be set to
PRG
, so that the sound will
play as set by the original Program.
If you wish to force a polyphonic program to sound
monophonically, set this either to
Mono
or
Legato
.
Conversely, set this to
Poly
if you wish to force a
monophonic program to play polyphonically.
For more information, see “Force OSC Mode,” on page 406
of the PG.
OSC Select
Normally, this should be set to
Both
.
If the timbre is using a program whose
Oscillator Mode
is
Double
or
Double Drums
, and you want only OSC1 or
OSC2 (not both) to sound, set this to
OSC1
(only OSC1 will
sound) or
OSC2
(only OSC2 will sound).
Portamento
Normally, this should be set to
PRG
.
If the Program uses portamento, but you’d like to disable this
for the current Combination, set this parameter to
Off
.
Conversely, if you want to force the portamento to be on, or
just to change the portamento time, set this to a value of
001–127.
The portamento will change to use the newly
specified time.
Timbre Parameters: Pitch
Transpose, Detune (BPM Adjust)
These parameters adjust the pitch of the timbre.
• In a layer-type combination, you can set two or more
timbres to the same program, and create a richer sound
by using
Transpose
to shift their pitch apart by an
octave or by using
Detune
to create a slight difference in
pitch between the two.
• In split-type combinations, you can use
Transpose
to
shift the pitch (in semitone units) of the programs
specified for each key zone.
• If you wish to change the playback pitch of a drum
program, use
Detune
. If you change the
Transpose
setting, the relationship between notes and drum sounds
will change.
Adjusting the BPM of multisamples or
samples created in SAMPLING mode
If a timbre’s program uses multisamples or samples that you
created in SAMPLING mode (or loaded in MEDIA mode) at
a specific BPM value, you can use the page menu command
Detune BPM Adjust to call up a new BPM value. This
changes the BPM by adjusting the playback pitch.
For more information, see “Detune BPM Adjust,” on
page 437 of the PG.
Use Program’s Scale, Scale
This specifies the scale for each timbre. If you
check
Use
Program’s Scale
, the scale specified by the program will be
used. Timbres for which this is
not checked
will use the
Scale
setting.
Delay
You can set some Timbres so that they don’t sound
immediately at note-on. This can create cool effects, and
more dramatic layers.
You can specify the delay for each Timbre either in
milliseconds (ms), or in rhythmic values which sync to the
system tempo.
If you set the Delay to
Key Off
, the Timbre will sound when
the note is released.
