PLAYING
PATCHES
-k
These allow you
to adjust the change
in the sound over
time by controlling
the
envelopes applied to the
wave
generator,
TVF and TVA. By
shortening the
attack
time,
you can
emphasize the
attack portion of the
sound.
By controlling
the Envelope
Level L3, you can make
dynamic changes
in the
brightness and "thickness"
of the
decay
or sustain
portion
of
the sound.

Pan
and Effects
This lets you
create a sense of space
and movement by
changing the stereo
position of
each Tone. For
example, you
can create the
effect of a player
moving around the stage by
continuously
changing the
stereo position
of a solo
instrument
sound program.
Three-dimensional
effects, such as
placement of sounds
in the
foreground or echo can
also be
obtained by
adjusting the level of the
JV-80's built-in effects.
In
addition to the
basic parameters
explained
above, there are parameters
which
allow you to
change the sound
according
to how hard you
play the keys or
what range of the
keyboard you play.
With the use
of these
parameters,
you can
eliminate harsh
high-frequency
elements in a Tone, or
have an
otherwise silent Tone
sound when
you
play
the keys strongly.

Both the
MIDI send and
receive
channels can be set in the
Patch Play
mode as
well. However,
since
this setting is
determined not by
the Patch
parameters but by
the system
common
parameters, the MIDI
channel will not change
even though the
Patches
are changed.
Because
of this, the MIDI
channels must be
set with the system
common
parameters (P.
75).
In the
Patch Play mode,
one
parameter
controls four
Tones.
However, in the
Patch Edit mode {P.7S),
which will be
explained
later,
several parameters for
one Tone are
called up
to the
display.
Because
of this, it is
occasionally
difficult
to see the
entire
structure of the
Patch. Therefore, it Is
effective
to use the
Patch
Play mode in
order to edit the Patch,
keeping
the balance
among
the Tones.
