Pan
This parameter sets the position in the stereo panorama of
the selected key.
Send FX1
This parameter sets the FX1 send level for of the selected key.
Send FX2
This parameter sets the FX2 send level for of the selected key.
PAGE 3 - PITCH
Here you can make pitch settings for each oscillator. These
settings specify how keyboard location will affect the pitch of
each oscillator, and select the controllers that will affect the
oscillator pitch and specify the depth of control. You can also
specify the amount of pitch change produced by the Pitch EG
and by LFO1 and LFO2, switch portamento on/off and spec-
ify how it will apply.
Selected
Use this parameter to select an oscillator to put in edit. Alter-
natively, you can select oscillators using the F1-F4 buttons.
Slope
Normally you will leave this parameter at +1.0. Positive (+)
values will cause the pitch to rise as you play higher notes,
and negative (–) values will cause the pitch to fall as you play
higher notes.
With a value of 0, there will be no change in pitch, and the C4
pitch will sound regardless of the keyboard location you play.
The diagram shows how the Pitch Slope and pitch are related:
-1.0…+2.0 Pitch slope value.
JS (+X)
This parameter specifies how the pitch will change when the
joystick is moved all the way to the right. A setting of 12 pro-
duces 1 octave of change.
For example if you set this to +12 and move the joystick all
the way to the right, the pitch will rise one octave above the
original pitch.
-60…+12 Maximum pitch change in semitones.
JS (–X)
This parameter specifies how the pitch will change when the
joystick is moved all the way to the left. A setting of 12 pro-
duces 1 octave of change.
For example, if you set this to -60 and move the joystick all
the way to the left, the pitch will fall five octaves below the
original pitch. This can be used to simulate the downward
swoops that a guitarist produces using the tremolo arm.
-60…+12 Maximum pitch change in semitones.
Pitch modulation
AMS (Alternate Modulation Source)
This parameter selects the source that will modulate the pitch
of the selected oscillator. See “AMS (Alternate Modulation
Source) list on page 14-19.
Intensity
This parameter specifies the depth and direction of the effect
produced by AMS”. With a setting of 0, no modulation will
be applied. With a setting of 12.00, the pitch will change up to
one octave.
For example, if you set AMS” to After Touch and apply pres-
sure to the keyboard, the pitch will rise if this parameter is set
to a positive (+) value, or fall if this parameter is set to a neg-
ative (–) value. The range is a maximum of one octave.
-12.00…+12.00
Parameter value.
Pitch EG modulation
EG Intensity
This parameter specifies the depth and direction of the mod-
ulation that the pitch EG specified on “Page 6 - Pitch EG” will
apply to the pitch. With a setting of 12.00, the pitch will
change a maximum of ±1 octave.
-12.00…+12.00
Parameter value.
EG AMS (EG Alternate Modulation Source)
This parameter selects the source that will modulate the pitch
EG of the selected oscillator. See “AMS (Alternate Modula-
tion Source) list on page 14-19).
Intensity (AMS Intensity)
This parameter specifies the depth and direction of the effect
that AMS” will have. For example, if you set AMS” to Veloc-
ity and set this value to +12.00, the velocity will control the
range of pitch change produced by the pitch EG in a range of
±1 octave. As you play more softly, the pitch change will draw
closer to the pitch EG levels.
Note: “Intensity” (Pitch EG) and AMS will be added to deter-
mine the depth and direction of the pitch modulation applied by
the pitch EG.
