Rhythm editing parameters
These parameters select the PCM waveform that is to form the basis of the rhythm tone, and apply effects to the waveform.
These parameters specify the pitch of the waveform.
These parameters specify the depth of the pitch envelope (the way in which pitch will change over time) and the shape of the envelope itself.

Wave No. L/MONO 0 (OFF)–****
* Depends on the
wave group.
Waveform upon which the tone is to be based
On the MC-808 you can specify a separate waveform for the L and R channels.
* If you want to use the same waveform for the L and R channels, set the R channel to 0 (OFF).
Wave No. R
Wave Gain -6, 0, +6, +12 dB Waveform gain (amplitude)
The value will change in steps of 6 dB (decibels). An increase of 6 dB will double the gain. If you
want to use the booster to distort the sound, it is effective to set this to the maximum.
FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation)
FXM creates a complex overtone structure by using a specific waveform to frequency-modulate the selected waveform. This is suitable for cre-
ating extreme sounds or sound effects.
Wave FXM SW
(Wave FXM Switch)
OFF, ON Selects whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF)
Wave FXM Color
(Wave FXM Color)
1–4 Selects how FXM will apply frequency modulation.
Increasing this value will produce a rougher sound. Decreasing this value will produce a more
metallic sound.
Wave FXM Depth
(Wave FXM Depth)
0–16 Depth of frequency modulation applied by FXM

Value Description
Coarse Tune
(Rhythm Tone
Coarse Tune)
0 (C-1)–127
(G9)
Basic pitch at which the Rhythm tone will play
Fine Tune
(Rhythm Tone Fine
Tune)
-50– +50 Pitch of the Rhythm tone
Adjusts the pitch in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) over a range of 1/2 semitone upward or
downward.
Random Pitch
(Random pitch
depth)
0–1200 This specifies the width of random pitch deviation that will occur each time a pad is pressed. If you
don’t want random pitch changes, set it to 0. The parameter can be adjusted in units of 1 cent (1/100th
of a semitone).
Wave Coarse Tune -48– +48 Pitch of the Wave
Adjusts the pitch in semitone steps over a range of +/-4 octaves.
Wave Fine Tune -50– +50 Pitch of the Wave
Adjusts the pitch in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) over a range of 1/2 semitone upward or
downward.
