Gate Time (GT TIME)
This parameter determines the length of time that the MIDI sound module will produce sound (0.1 sec-
ond–4.0 seconds, ALt).
Settings values shown in the display are 01–40 and ALt (0.1–4.0 seconds and Alternate).
fig.71
This Gate Time parameter corresponds to the length of time a note is held (on a MIDI keyboard) before
it is released.
When you set “ALt”, Note On and Note Off are alternately transmitted when you strike the pad. When
using samplers and other such devices, you can strike a pad to start a sampler phrase loop, and stop the
phrase loop the next you strike the same pad.
If the MIDI sound module ignores Note Off messages, this Gate Time parameter will not affect the
length of the note (Drum sound modules and other sound modules).
The actual length of time the note sounds will depend on the settings of the MIDI sound module.
If you are using a pad to play a sound that has a slow attack, the note may be too quiet or may be cut
off too quickly. If so, increase the Gate Time.
Pan (PAN)
If you have connected a MIDI sound module that can receive Pan Control Change messages (control
number 10), this parameter allows you to specify the stereo position (L7–Ctr–r7/rnd/oFF). With a set-
ting of “rnd” the stereo position will change randomly each time you strike the pad. With a setting of
“oFF,” Pan messages will not be transmitted.
fig.72
If the MIDI sound module ignores Pan Control Change messages (control number 10), this Pan para-
meter will not affect the stereo position.
