Parameter Value Explanation
Partial Delay Mode
Partial Delay
This produces a time delay between the moment a key is pressed (or released), and the moment the partial actually begins to sound. You
can also make settings that shift the timing at which each partial is sounded.
This diers from the Delay in the internal eects, in that by changing the sound qualities of the delayed partials and changing the pitch
for each partial, you can also perform arpeggio-like passages just by pressing one key.
You can also synchronize the partial delay time to the tempo of the external MIDI sequencer.
NOTE
If you don’t wish to use Partial Delay, set Partial Delay Mode to “NORM” and Partial Delay Time to “0.”
• If the Structure Type set in the range of “2”–”10,” the output of partial 1 and 2 will be combined into partial 2, and the output of partial
3 and 4 will be combined into partial 4.
For this reason, partial 1 will follow the settings of partial 2, and partial 3 will follow the settings of partial 4 (p. 52).
NORM
The partial begins to play after the time specied in the Partial Delay Time parameter has elapsed.

No Partial Delay
HOLD
Although the partial begins to play after the time specied in the Partial Delay Time parameter
has elapsed, if the key is released before the time specied in the Partial Delay Time parameter has
elapsed, the partial is not played.

No sound
played
OFF-N
Rather than being played while the key is pressed, the partial begins to play once the period of
time specied in the Partial 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.

OFF-D
Rather than being played while the key is pressed, the partial begins to play once the period
of time specied in the Partial 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.

Delay time

Partial Delay Time 0–127, Note
Species the time from when the key is pressed (or if the Partial Delay Mode parameter is set to
“OFF-N” or “OFF-D,” the time from when the key is released) until when the partial will sound.
If you want the time until the partial sounds to be synchronized with the tempo, specify the time
as a note value relative to the synchronization tempo.
(Example) For a tempo of 120 (120 quarter notes occur in 1 minute (60 seconds))
Value Partial Delay time
(half note)
1 second (60/60 = 1 [second])
(quarter note)
0.5 seconds (60/120 = 0.5 [second])
(eighth note)
0.25 seconds (60/240 = 0.25 [second])
