Detailed Settings for Each Function ([EDIT])
Choose the Part for which you want to make settings.
When using MIDI messages from an external MIDI device to play
the RD-700SX, set the Receive channels for each of the RD-700SX’s
parts so they’re matched up with the channels that’ll be used for
transmission by the external MIDI device.
Sets the volume and the panning (localizes sound image) for each of
the Tones.
The Volume setting is mainly used when multiple tones are playing
to obtain the desired balance in volume between each part.
The Pan setting localizes the sound image of each part when the
output is in stereo. With an increase in the value for L, more of the
sound will be heard as coming from the left side. Similarly, more of
the sound will originate at the right if the value of R is increased.
When set to 0, the sound is heard as coming from the center.
The RD-700SX has a maximum polyphony (the number of sounds, or
“voices” that can be produced simultaneously by the sound
generator) of 128 voices.
This setting specifies the number of voices that will be reserved for
each Part when more than 128 voices are played simultaneously. For
example if Voice Reserve is set to 6 for Part 1, Part 1 will always have
6 notes of sound-producing capacity available to it even if a total of
more than 128 notes (total for all Parts) are being requested.
You can make separate Voice Reserve settings for each individual
Part.
Sets the part on or off.
This setting determines whether the multi-effects are applied (ON),
or not (OFF).
For example, with the MFX Dest setting (p. 87) set to “ALL” (multi-
effects are applied to all parts), multi-effects are not applied to the
parts for which this is set to “OFF.”
You can change the RD-700SX’s tones by reception of MIDI
messages generated through the actions of modulation levers,
pedals, knobs, and other such external MIDI devices controls.
You can set whether to have the following MIDI messages received
(ON), or not (OFF) individually in each part.
