PCM Drum Kit (PCMD) – WMT tab
68
Parameter Value Explanation
WMT tab
WMT Velocity Control OFF, ON, RANDOM
WMT Velocity Control determines whether a dierent drum partial is played (ON) or not (OFF)
depending on the force with which the key is played (velocity).
When set to “RANDOM,” the drum kit’s constituent drum partials will sound randomly, regardless
of any Velocity messages.
Range Lower
Range Upper
Fade Lower
Fade Upper
Level
Velocity
Velo Fade Upper 0–127
This determines what will happen to the tone’s level when the tone is played at a velocity greater
than its specied velocity range. Higher settings produce a more gradual change in volume. If you
want notes played outside the specied key velocity range to not be sounded at all, set this to “0.”
Velo Range Upper LOWER–127
This sets the highest velocity at which the waveform will sound. Make these settings when you
want dierent waveforms to sound in response to notes played at dierent strengths.
Velo Range Lower 1–UPPER
This sets the lowest velocity at which the waveform will sound. Make these settings when you
want dierent waveforms to sound in response to notes played at dierent strengths.
NOTE
If you attempt to set the Lower velocity limit above the Upper, or the Upper below the Lower,
the other value will automatically be adjusted to the same setting.
Velo Fade Lower 0–127
This determines what will happen to the tone’s level when the tone is played at a velocity lower
than its specied velocity range. Higher settings produce a more gradual change in volume. If you
want notes played outside the specied key velocity range to not be sounded at all, set this to “0.”
PITCH tab
Partial Coarse Tune C-1–G9
Selects the pitch at which a drum partial sounds.
MEMO
Set the coarse tuning for Waves comprising the drum partials with the Wave Coarse Tune
parameter (p. 67).
Partial Fine Tune -50–+50
Adjusts the pitch of the drum partial’s sound up or down in 1-cent steps (+/-50 cents).
* One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
MEMO
Set the ne tuning for Waves comprising the drum partials with the Wave Fine Tune parameter
(p. 67).
Partial Random Pitch Depth
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 20, 30,
40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 200, 300,
400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000,
1100, 1200
This species the width of random pitch deviation that will occur each time a key is pressed. If you
do not want the pitch to change randomly, set this to “0.”
These values are in units of cents (1/100th of a semitone).
PITCH ENV tab
Pitch Env Depth -12–+12
Adjusts the eect of the Pitch Envelope. Higher settings will cause the pitch envelope to produce
greater change. Negative “-” settings will invert the shape of the envelope.
Pitch Env V-Sens -63–+63
Keyboard playing dynamics can be used to control the depth of the pitch envelope. If you want
the pitch envelope to have more eect for strongly played notes, set this parameter to a positive
“+” value. If you want the pitch envelope to have less eect for strongly played notes, set this to a
negative “-” value.
Pitch Env T1 V-Sens -63–+63
This allows keyboard dynamics to aect 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.
Pitch Env T4 V-Sens -63–+63
Use this parameter when you want key release speed to aect 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.
Pitch Env Time 1–4 0–127
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.)
