PAGE 16 - R.T. CONTROLS: DAMPER
This page lets you enable/disable the Damper pedal for each
of the Realtime (Keyboard) tracks.
D (Damper)
On When you press the Damper pedal and release
the keys, the track’s sound is kept sustained.
Off The Damper pedal is not active on any track
set to this status.
E (Expression)
This parameters allows you to switch the Expression control
on/off on each individual Realtime track. The Expression
control is a relative level control, always subtracted from the
Volume value of the track.
As an example, imagine you have a Piano sound assigned to
Upper 1, and a Strings sound assigned to Upper 2. If you turn
the Expression switch on on Upper 2, and off on Upper 1,
you can use a pedal to control only the Strings’ volume, while
the Piano remains unchanged.
To program a pedal or the Assignable Slider to act as an
Expression control, see “Page 3 - Assignable Pedal/Foot-
switch, Assignable Slider” on page 126. You can only assign
this function to a volume-type pedal, not to a switch-type
one. Assign the “KB Expression” option to the pedal or
Assignable Slider, then press WRITE to save the setting into
the Global.
PAGE 17 - R.T. CONTROLS: JOYSTICK
This page lets you enable/disable the Joystick for each of the
Realtime (Keyboard) tracks.
Here is the edit procedure:
1. Use the VOLUME/VALUE (E-H) buttons to select a
track.
2. Use the F3-F4 buttons to select the X or Y parameter for
that track.
3. Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to change the status.
X
This enables/disables the left/right movement of the Joystick
(Pitch Bend, and sometimes the sound parameter’s control).
Y
This enables/disables the front/rear movement of the Joystick
(Y+: Modulation, and sometimes the sound parameter’s con-
trol; Y-: Various controls, or non-active).
PAGE 18 - R.T. CONTROLS: DYNAMIC RANGE
This page lets you program a dynamic range for each of the
Realtime (Keyboard) tracks. This is useful to create a sound
made of up to three dynamic layers, assigning each of the
Upper tracks to a different dynamic range.
As an example, you may assign the El.Piano 1 Program to the
Upper 1, and the El.Piano 2 Program to the Upper 2 track.
Then, set Upper 1 to [L=0, H=80], and Upper 2 to [L=81,
H=127]. The El.Piano 1 will play when playing softer, the
El.Piano 2 when playing louder.
Here is the edit procedure:
1. Use the VOLUME/VALUE (E-H) buttons to select a
track.
2. Use the F3-F4 buttons to select the L or H parameter for
that track.
3. Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to change the parame-
ter’s value.
L/H
This parameter pair sets the Lower and Higher dynamic
range for the track.
0 Lowest velocity value.
127 Highest velocity value.
PAGE 19 - R.T. CONTROLS: ENSEMBLE
This page lets you program the Ensemble function. This
function harmonizes the right-hand played melody with the
left-hand recognized chords.
Up1…Up3
Right-hand (Upper) tracks.
Off There is no harmonization on this track.
Normal This track is included in the harmonization.
Mute This track only plays the Ensemble notes, but
not the original note.
