Creating a Rhythm Set
Wave Level
You can set the volume of the waveform.
Value: 0127
The volume level of each rhythm tone is set with the Tone Level
parameter (RHYTHM/TVA); the volume levels of the entire
rhythm set is set with the Rhythm Level parameter (RHYTHM/
TVA) (p. 82).
Velocity Control (Velocity Control Switch)
WMT Velocity Control determines whether a different rhythm tone
is played (ON) or not (OFF) depending on the force with which the
key is played (velocity).
When set to RND, the rhythm sets constituent rhythm tones will
sound randomly, regardless of any Velocity messages.
Value: OFF, ON, RND
Vel Fade Lower (Velocity Fade Width Lower)
This Determines what will happen to the tones level when the tone
is played at a velocity lower than its specified velocity range. Higher
settings produce a more gradual change in volume. If you want
notes played outside the specified key velocity range to not be
sounded at all, set this to 0.
Value: 0127
Vel Range Lower (Velocity Range Lower)
This sets the lowest velocity at which the waveform will sound.
Make these settings when you want different waveforms to sound in
response to notes played at different strengths.
Value: 1UPPER
Vel Range Upper (Velocity Range Upper)
This sets the highest velocity at which the waveform will sound.
Make these settings when you want different waveforms to sound in
response to notes played at different strengths.
Value: LOWER127
If you attempt to set the Lower velocity limit above the Upper, or
the Upper below the Lower, the other value will automatically
be adjusted to the same setting.
Vel Fade Upper (Velocity Fade Width Upper)
This determines what will happen to the tones level when the tone
is played at a velocity greater than its specified velocity range.
Higher settings produce a more gradual change in volume. If you
want notes played outside the specified key velocity range to not be
sounded at all, set this to 0.
Value: 0127

Modifying Pitch (Pitch)
fig.04-13_50
For details on the setting, refer to How to Make the Rhythm
Set Settings (p. 69).
Pitch
Tone Coarse Tune (Rhythm Tone Coarse Tune)
Selects the pitch at which a rhythm tone sounds.
Value: C-1 G9
Set the coarse tuning for Waves comprising the rhythm tones
with the Coarse Tune parameter (RHYTHM/WMT) (p. 78).
Tone Fine Tune (Rhythm Tone Fine Tune)
Adjusts the pitch of the rhythm tones sound up or down in 1-cent
steps (+/-50 cents).
Value: -50 +50
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
Set the fine tuning for Waves comprising the rhythm tones with
the Fine Tune parameter (RHYTHM/WMT) (p. 78).
Random Pitch Depth
This specifies the width of random pitch deviation that will occur
each time a key is pressed. If you do not want the pitch to change
randomly, set this to 0. These values are in units of cents (1/100th
of a semitone).
Value: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 200,
300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200
Env Depth (Envelope Depth)
Adjusts the effect of the Pitch Envelope. Higher settings will cause
the pitch envelope to produce greater change. Negative (-) settings
will invert the shape of the envelope.
Value: -12 +12
