KEY ASSIGN MODE
Decay 1 and Decay 2 Rates are equally affected. Refer to EDIT VOICE JOB #03 for an
explanation of these parameters. Decay 1 Level is NOT affected by this function.
Range: + 63(offset). Actual Decay Rate range is 01/+99 (actual Decay Rates cannot
be offset outside these limits).
NOTE: Long decays create “looping”. Refer to EDIT VOICE JOB #03 for comments
about this.
JOB #03: MULTI VOICE
FUNCTION то assign any selected voice to instrument keys A thru L,
then program a sliding scale of parameters to these 12 keys.
In the Mutti Voice Mode, only monophonic play of the assigned voice is possible, even
if its original key is not within the range A thru L.
If using stereo outputs, the voices at keys А thru L will be set at the same stereo position
as the original selected voice.
The Multi Voice Mode permits independent entry of four Multi Step values. These values
measure the difference in the pitch, voice level, Attack Rate and Decay Rate of adjacent
keys. This, in effect, turns instrument keys A thru L into a 12-note keyboard, using the
selected voice as its sound source. The pitch, level, Attack Rate and Decay Rate can
increase or decrease in equal steps from key A to key L.
Тһе original voice sounds at Keys A thru L will be replaced by the selected voice,
while the Multi Voice Mode is ON.
* While the Multi Voice Mode is ON, another voice cannot be assigned to keys À thru L.
* To alter Multi Step parameter settings after vou hàve already set them and exited this
Job, do NOT use this Job again as that will cancel all your settings. Refer to Job #04.

2. Use the -1/МО and +1/YES keys or the DATA ENTRY slider to change the pitch
step by 10-cent (1/10th semitone) units. Pitch step values are shown in 1-cent (1/
100th semitone) units.
Range: + 2 semitones, equal to a range over the 12 instrument keys of + 2 octaves.
Displayed as + 200 units.
3. Press START to enter the pitch step setting. On the LCD the word "step" will briefly
change to "set!", then return to "step"
* The original pitch will be retained at key A. Keys B through L will ascend or descend
in pitch, according to a positive or negative pitch step setting.
NOTE: The Multi Step function cannot alter a voice's pitch beyond the upper and lower
limits of its pitch range (as set by the EDIT VOICE or KEY PARAMETER ASSIGN
functions). I! a voice's pitch is already set at or near these limits, this will result in all
keys to the right of the first key that reaches this limit having the same pitch.
