[EXT] (External Input Switch)
When [EXT] is turned on, the [WAVEFORM] will automati-
cally be turned off, the sound from the EXT IN jack or MIC
jack will be input.
To turn [EXT] off, press [WAVEFORM] to select a wave-
form for OSC 2.
Also, when [EXT] is on, [CONTROL 1] will control the fol-
lowing parameter.
[1] GATE THRESHOLD:
This sets the minimum input level. Only sounds that are
louder than the specified level will be input.
* If the External Trigger switch (p.121) is on, sounds of
any level will be input. Depending on the Gate
Threshold setting, the envelope specified by the External
Trigger Destination will start. (p.122)
* No parameter is assigned to [CONTROL 2].

[REAR/FRONT] (Vocal Input Select Switch)
Specify whether you will be using the VOCAL/UPPER jack
or the MIC jack.
[REAR/FRONT] specifies which jack will be used. When off
(REAR), the EXT IN VOCAL/UPPER jack is used; when on
(FRONT), the MIC jack is used.
This parameter can be set independently for each perfor-
mance.
[INST/LOWER]/[VOCAL/UPPER] (Input Level)
Adjusts the volume of the external input.
If even a small amount of sound is input, the SIG/LIMITER
indicator will light green.
The limiter will operate on sounds which exceed a specified
level, automatically adjusting the volume to keep the sound
from distorting. When this happens, the SIG/LIMITER indi-
cator will light red.
If you want the sound to have dynamic expression, adjust it
so that the SIG/LIMITER indicator lights red occasionally.
* The external input sound is frequently used for the
Voice Modulator function (p.103) or the External Trigger
function (p.121).
Modifying the Waveform and
Pitch of the Sound
In the OSC COMMON (Oscillator Common) section and
PITCH ENVELOPE (Pitch Envelope) sections, you can
make settings that affect both OSC 1 and OSC 2.

(Oscillator Common) Section
[OSC BALANCE] (Oscillator Balance)
This adjusts the balance between OSC 1 and OSC 2. As the
knob is rotated toward the left, the volume of OSC 1 will
become louder. As it is rotated toward the right the volume
of OSC 2 will become louder. In the center position, OSC 1
and OSC 2 will have the same volume.
OSC SHIFT [-OCT]/[+OCT] (Oscillator Shift)
Shift the pitch that is produced when you play your MIDI,
in one-octave steps. This allows you to play notes which fall
above or below the actual range of notes on your MIDI key-
board.
It is convenient to use this method when you wish to
change just the Patch of a specific Part in Dual or Split
modes.
Pressing [-OCT] will lower the pitch in one-octave steps,
and pressing [+OCT] will raise it in one-octave steps.
[-OCT] [+OCT]
-2OCT red dark: Lower the pitch two octaves
-1OCT orange dark: Lower the pitch one octave
0OCT dark dark: Normal pitch
+1OCT dark orange: Raise the pitch one octave
+2OCT dark red: Raise the pitch two octaves
[X-MOD DEPTH] (Cross Modulation Depth)
Cross Modulation is when OSC 2 modify the frequency of
OSC 1 (“Functions using OSC 1 and OSC 2”, p.73). [X-MOD
DEPTH] adjusts the depth of this Cross Modulation. As the
knob is rotated toward the right, the sound of OSC 1 will
become more complex, with more overtones, and will be
suitable for creating metallic sounds and sound effects.
