Roland JV-30 - Sound Organization and Program Numbers

Organization
of Sounds
in
the JV-30
The
following explains
the system of
organization used
for all sounds in
the
JV-30. You may
have no need
for reading the
following, since
when operating
the
instrument,
everything concerned
with sound
organization is handled au-
tomatically. It is only
when you wish to use
an e)cternal unit to
select sounds
that a
knowledge of the system
becomes important.

As can be
seen below, every sound is assigned a
number, resulting from
a
combination of a
Variation No. from
0-127, and
a
Tone No. from
1-128.
The
Variation Number corresponds to
Control
CInange
0,
whereas the Tone
Number corresponds with Program Change. When using
an external device to
specify
a
sound,
a
Control Change and a Program Change must be
transmitted as a pair.
O
Capital Tones
Capital Tones are
assigned
to
the row where the Variation Number is 0.
O
Variations
Variations are assigned to the columns
containing Variation Numbers 1
-1
27. Each Variation re-
sides in the
column corresponding to the number of the
Capital
Tone
it
Is
affiliated
with.
The
MT-32
set
is assigned
to
Variation No. 127.
*
When using an external device to change the sound: After a
Variation
has
been
selected, and you wish to
select another Variation, you only need to change the
Tone Number (Program Change) to select
another Variation that has the same
Variation Number.

If you specify a
location where no Tone is assigned when selecting a
Variation, no sound will
be
produced. However, solely with regard to
Variation Nos. 0-63, and Tone Nos.
1-120,
shown
left, the Tone of a Capital or Sub-Capital will be seleaed
in its place, and sound will be
pro-
duced. (See
below.)
As
shown
at
left, the Tones assigned to all
Variation Numbers which are a
multiple of
8
(Nos.
8,
16, 24, etc.),
are designated as Sub-Capital Tones.
