Parameter List
Parameter Value Explanation
Wave Delay Mode
Wave delay
This produces a time delay between the moment a key is pressed (or
released), and the moment the Wave actually begins to sound. You
can also make settings that shift the timing at which each Wave is
sounded.
This diers from the Delay in the internal eects, in that by changing
the sound qualities of the delayed Wave and changing the pitch
for each Wave, you can also perform arpeggio-like passages just by
pressing one key.
You can also synchronize the Wave delay time to the tempo of the
external MIDI sequencer.
Wave Delay Mode
NORMAL
The Wave begins to play after the time
specied in the Wave Delay Time parameter
has elapsed.
Note o
Delay time
Note on
No Partial Delay
HOLD
Although the Wave begins to play after
the time specied in the Wave Delay Time
parameter has elapsed, if the key is released
before the time specied in the Wave Delay
Time parameter has elapsed, the Wave is not
played.

KEY-OFF-NORMAL
Rather than being played while the key is
pressed, the Wave begins to play once the
period of time specied in the Wave Delay
Time parameter has elapsed after release of
the key.
This is eective in situations such as when
simulating noises from guitars and other
instruments.

KEY-OFF-DECAY
Rather than being played while the key is
pressed, the Wave begins to play once the
period of time specied in the Wave Delay
Time parameter has elapsed after release of
the key. Here, however, changes in the TVA
Envelope begin while the key is pressed,
which in many cases means that only the
sound from the release portion of the
envelope is heard.

Wave Delay Time
Sync
OFF, ON
Set this ON if you want the Wave delay time
to synchronize with the tempo.
Wave Delay Time
(note) 1/64T–2
This is available when Wave Delay Time Sync
is ON. It species the delay time in terms of a
note value.
Wave Delay Time 0–1023
This is available when Wave Delay Time Sync
is OFF. It species the delay time without
regard to the tempo.

Velocity
Parameter Value Explanation
Velocity Range Low 1–127
Species the lower limit (Lower) and upper
limit (Upper) of the velocities that will sound
the Wave.
Make these settings when you want to play
dierent Waves depending on your keyboard
dynamics.
Velocity Range Up 1–127
Velocity Fade Low 0–127
Species the degree to which the Wave is
sounded by notes played more softly than
Velocity Range Low. If you don’t want the
tone to sound at all, set this parameter to “0.
Velocity Fade Up 0–127
Species the degree to which the Wave is
sounded by notes played more strongly than
Velocity Range Up. If you don’t want the tone
to sound at all, set this parameter to “0.
INST PENV
Parameter Value Explanation
Env Depth -100–+100
Adjusts the eect of the Pitch Envelope.
Higher settings will cause the pitch envelope
to produce greater change. Negative (-) value
will invert the shape of the envelope.
Env Velocity Sens -100–+100
Keyboard playing dynamics can be used to
control the depth of the pitch envelope. If
you want the pitch envelope to have more
eect for strongly played notes, set this
parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want
the pitch envelope to have less eect for
strongly played notes, set this to a negative (-)
value.
Env Time 1 Velocity
Sens
-100–+100
This allows keyboard dynamics to aect the
Time 1 of the Pitch envelope.
If you want Time 1 to be speeded up for
strongly played notes, set this parameter to a
positive “+” value. If you want it to be slowed
down, set this to a negative “-” value.
Env Time 4 Velocity
Sens
-100–+100
Use this parameter when you want key
release speed to aect the Time 4 value of the
pitch envelope.
If you want Time 4 to be speeded up for
quickly released notes, set this parameter to a
positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed
down, set this to a negative (-) value.
Env Time 1–4 0–1023
Specify the pitch envelope times (Time 1–
Time 4).
Higher settings will result in a longer time
until the next pitch is reached. (For example,
Time 2 is the time over which the pitch
changes from Level 1 to Level 2.)

Env Level 0–4 -511–+511
Specify the pitch envelope levels (Level 0–
Level 4).
It determines how much the pitch changes
from the reference pitch (the value set with
Coarse Tune or Fine Tune on the Pitch screen)
at each point.
Positive (+) value will cause the pitch to be
higher than the standard pitch, and negative
(-) value will cause it to be lower.
