About parameters that can be edited from the SD-80’s panel
The following parameters can be edited from the panel in GM2 mode or Native mode.
On the SD-80, parameter values are specified for the Part. In other words, these parameters belong to the
part, and not to the sound (instrument). For example, if you set Vibrato Rate to +20 and then select a
different sound for that part, the Vibrato Rate of the newly selected sound will stay at +20, and will not be
the default setting of +/-0. Parts that belong to the Part in this way are called “part parameters.”
■ Part parameters (GM2 mode, Native mode)
Inst Type INST, DRUM
The part mode can be switched between Inst and Drum Set.
Select INST for parts that will play conventional instrumental sounds (Inst parts). Select DRUM for parts
that will play percussion or drum sounds (Drum parts). For a drum part, each different MIDI note
number will play a different sound (instrument), allowing you to play a variety of percussion instrument
sounds from a single part ("Drum set list (GM2 / Native mode)" (p. 105)).
Each part 1–16 can be set either as an Inst part (to play a conventional sound), or a Drum part (to play a
drum set).
Modulation Depth 0–10–127
Specifies the depth of vibrato.
Volume [cc#7] 0–100–127
Adjusts the volume of each part. Increasing this value will make the sound louder. The overall volume of
the entire SD-80 is adjusted by the [VOLUME] knob. If the [VOLUME] knob is set to the minimum
position, there will be no sound even if you raise this level parameter.
Panpot [cc#10] L64–0–63R
Adjusts the pan (localization of the sound image; effective when stereo output is used) of the part.
* For some sounds, a small amount of sound may be heard from the opposite speaker even if this parameter is set to far
right or far left.
* In a drum set, the pan setting of each individual percussion sound is fixed. When you edit the pan setting of a drum
part, the overall panning of the entire drum set will change.
