Roland SUPER JX - Page 27

The JX-10 features 6 modules for the Upper
section of the keyboard and another 6 for the
Lower section, altogether 12 modules. Each
of the moduies consists of two sound sources.
The Key Assign Factor determins how to
assign these modules to the keyboard.

@ POLY 1
This mode turns each of the Upper and the
Lower Keyboards of the JX-10 to a 6 voice
polyphonic synthesizer assigning one synth-
esizer module to each key pressed. This is
suitable for the sound whose envelope curve
is similar to piano’s or guitar's, therefore cho-
sen for usual performance.
© POLY 2
This mode is very similar to Poly mode above
assigning only one synthesizer voice to each
key pressed. However, the same module as
assigned to the key previously played is
assigned to the note played later. So, this
mode is suitable for the performance with
portamento effect.
e UNISON 1
in this mode, two sound modules are
assigned to each key, therefore the created
sound is richer than in Poly mode. That is,
each of the Upper and the Lower sections
becomes 3 voice synthesizer.
@ UNISON 2
This is similar to the Unison mode above, but
the one of the two modules is one octave
lower than the other.
e MONO 1
This mode turns each of the Upper and the
Lower Keyboard to a single voice synthesizer
that assigns one module to each key.
© MONO 2
This mode turns each of the Upper and the
Lower Keyboard to the monophonic synthe-
sizer that assigns 6 modules to one key
pressed,
The Upper and the Lower sections of the
keyboard can have different Key Assign
modes, which makes various interesting
combinations. However, please note that
when the Whole key Mode is selected, the
Key Assign Factor you set will be ignored,
and when the Portamento is turned on, the
Poly 2 is automatically selected, and when it
is off, the Poly 1 mode is selected. Also, when
the Key Mode is either the Touch Voice or
Cross Fade, the Key Assign selected on the
Lower will be ignored and the Key Assign of
the Upper will work.
