After selecting a sound with a slow release (i.e. a
sound that lingers on after all notes have been
released), however, “Change Gate Time” will help you
cut the notes down to size and thus avoid undesir-
able overlaps.
Press the [WRITE] button (its indicator flashes) to
confirm your settings and edit the data.
■ Global Change
This function allows you to make quick changes to
certain settings. The changes always apply to entire
tracks (you cannot use “Global Change” for just a few
measures). You can apply global changes to the four
editable rhythms track parameters (“Express”,
“Reverb”, “Panpot” and “Chorus”) when you notice
that the effect is too prominent or not strong
enough.
You can also use it to “upgrade” older rhythms to
ensure that they use the BK-5’s new sounds.

Bias –1920~1920 This parameter sets the
amount by which the
duration (or gate time)
of the selected notes is
to change. The shortest
possible “Gate Time”
value is “1” (used for all
drum notes), so that
selecting “–1000” for
notes with a “Gate
Time” value of “1” in
the specified time
range still leaves you
with the same value.
Magnify 0~200% Use this parameter
rather than “Bias” to
produce proportional
changes to the
affected “Gate Time”
values. Values below
“100%” decrease the
duration, while any-
thing above “100%”
increases it. Select
“100%” if you prefer to
work with the “Bias”
parameter (see above).
From Note/
To Note
0 C-~127 G9 “From Note” refers to
the lower limit of the
note range you want
to change. “To Note”
represents the upper
limit.
