Making Detailed Settings for Tones
You can make changes in tones by adjusting the settings of the
following four elements.
Attack Time Offset:
The time it takes after the key is pressed for a sound to reach full
volume.
Release Time Offset:
The time it takes after the key is released for a sound to become
inaudible.
Cutoff Offset:
Adjusts how much the filter is opened.
Resonance Offset:
Emphasizes the overtones in the region of the cutoff frequency,
adding character to the sound. Excessively high settings can produce
oscillation, causing the sound to distort.
Decay Time Offset:
The time it is to take following the attack for the volume to decrease.
Making abrupt changes in the settings values may cause the
sound to become distorted or overly loud. Carefully monitor
volume levels while making the settings.
With some Tones, the effect does not work as intended.
This sets the amount of pitch change that will occur when you move
the Pitch Bend lever (2 octaves).
Changing Tone Elements
(Attack Time/Release Time/Cutoff/
Resonance/Decay Time)
Parameter
Value Description
Attack Time
(Offset)
-64–+63 Higher values produce a milder
attack; lower values produce a
sharper attack.
Release Time
(Offset)
Higher values produce longer
decay; set lower values for a clear-
cut sound
Cutoff
(Offset)
Higher values brighten the sound;
lower values make the sound
seem darker.
Resonance
(Offset)
Higher value makes the special
quality of the sound stronger;
lower value reduce these
characteristics.
Decay Time
(Offset)
The time it takes for the volume to
fall increases as the value is raised;
lowering the value decreases the
decay time.
