rS.Nd
(Riser Mode) (*1)
A riser is a rising sound that’s added to a song as the song builds in excitement and reaches its climax. In
contrast, a “downer” is a falling sound.
Use the [NOISE] knob to control both the riser and downer effects.
When the [NOISE] knob is set to minimum (“r.0”) or maximum (“d.0”), the riser sound is muted.
You can add excitement to the sequencer’s performance by making the riser go up from minimum Ó
midpoint (r.100) as the song moves towards its climax, and then go down from midpoint Ó maximum (d. 0)
once the song has reached its climax.
Although the riser produces an intermittent sound over the range from the minimum to midpoint [NOISE]
knob settings, it works differently depending on the Riser Mode.
The riser works the same from the midpoint to maximum setting (a continuous falling sound).
You can change the knob position without outputting the riser sound if you hold down the [SHIFT] button
while turning the [NOISE] knob, after you turn the [NOISE] knob from minimum to maximum (the muted
state).
This lets you output the riser sound at the position you like.
* You can also use the [SHIFT] button + [1] pad + [2] pad to switch between settings.
OFF
With this setting, the [NOISE] knob is used to adjust the noise level.
When the Riser Mode is set to anything besides OFF, you can use the [NOISE] knob to
control the riser.
