COMMONCOMMON
Tempo
20.00–300.00 Sets the tempo of the tone (including the arpeggio, motion and sequencer).
Level
0–127 Adjusts the overall volume for all tones.
Pan
L64–0–63R
Sets the panning for the tone.
A setting of “L64” pans the sound all the way to the left, “0” pans the sound to the
center, and “63R” pans the sound all the way to the right.
Mono/Poly
Sets whether the tones play in polyphonic (POLY) or monophonic (MONO) mode.
MONO Only one sound at a time plays, and only the last key you played produces sound.
POLY More than one sound can play at the same time.
Legato Switch
OFF, ON
When Mono/Poly is “MONO” and Legato Switch is “ON”, legato is applied to the
notes.
“Legato” is a performance technique that smoothly connects one note to the
next. This produces an eect similar to hammering-on or pulling-o when
playing a guitar.
Portamento
Time
0–255
When portamento is used, this sets the time taken for the pitch to change.
Higher settings cause the pitch to take longer when gliding to the next note.
A value of “0” turns the portamento “OFF”.
Unison Switch
OFF, ON
This layers a single sound.
If the Unison Switch is “ON”, the number of notes layered on one key will change
according to the number of keys you play.
Unison Detune
0–63
Creates a detuned eect by shifting the tuning of the layered notes.
Larger values detune the sounds more, making the overall sound thicker.
Unison Spread
0–63
Spreads out the layered sounds over the stereo eld.
Larger values increase the spread eect.
Chord Switch
OFF, ON Turns the chord memory function on/o.
Hold Switch
OFF, ON
While this is “ON”, the notes you play keep sounding even after you take your
ngers o the keyboard.
