Parameter
Value Explanation
Wave Group
INT, EXP
Selects the group for the waveform that is to be the basis of the tone.
INT:
Waveforms stored in internal memory
EXP:
Waveform stored in a Wave Expansion Board (SRX series) installed
in EXP slots.
* It’s not possible to select EXP unless a wave expansion board is inserted
into the corresponding slot.
Wave Bank
A, B
- - -
Selects the wave bank when the wave group is set to “EXP.”
A:
Wave Expansion Board A
B:
Wave Expansion Board B
* When the wave group is set to “INT,” the “- - -” message appears and you
cannot select a wave bank.
* You cannot select a wave bank of a Wave Expansion Board that is not
installed.
Wave No. L (MONO)
1–1401
Chooses the desired waveform. You can choose a separate waveform for
the SonicCell’s left and right channels.
* For mono tones, assign a waveform to the L channel. No sound will be
heard if a waveform is set for only the R channel.
* In the case of a wave from a wave expansion board, the range (number
of waveforms) will depend on the board you've selected.
Wave No. R
Wave Gain
-6, 0, +6, +12
Sets the gain (amplification) of the waveform. The value changes in 6 dB
(decibel) steps—an increase of 6 dB doubles the waveform’s gain.
If you intend to use the Booster (p. 94) to distort the waveform’s sound, set
this parameter to its maximum value.
Wave Tempo Sync
OFF, ON
When you wish to synchronize a Phrase Loop to the clock (tempo), set this
to “ON.” This is valid only when a separately sold wave expansion board
is installed, and a waveform that indicates a tempo (BPM) is selected as the
sample for a tone.
If a waveform from a wave expansion board is selected for the tone,
turning the Wave Tempo Sync parameter “ON” will cause pitch-related
settings and FXM-related settings to be ignored.
When the Wave Tempo Sync is set to “ON,” set the Tone Delay Time
(p. 100) to “0.” With other settings, a delay effect will be applied, and
you will be not be able to play as you expect.
Phrase Loop
Phrase loop refers to the repeated playback of a phrase that’s been pulled
out of a song (e.g., by using a sampler). One technique involving the use of
Phrase Loops is the excerpting of a Phrase from a pre-existing song in a cer-
tain genre, for example dance music, and then creating a new song with
that Phrase used as the basic motif. This is referred to as “Break Beats.”
FXM Switch
OFF, ON
This sets whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF).
FXM
FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation) uses a specified waveform to apply fre-
quency modulation to the currently selected waveform, creating complex
overtones. This is useful for creating dramatic sounds or sound effects.
