Creating a Rhythm Set
Overview Connections VS-700C Console VS-700R I/O Fantom VS Appendix
With rhythm tones, sounds are created by combining up
to four Waves (eight for stereo).
Rhythm Wave
Wave No. L (Mono) (Wave Number L (Mono))
Wave No. R (Wave Number R)
This selects the Waves comprising the rhythm tone. Along
with the Wave number, the Wave name will appear at the
lower part of the display.
When in monaural mode, only the left side (L) is specified.
When in stereo, the right side (R) is also specified.
Value:
----, 1–1240
* When using a multisample in stereo, you must specify the
same number for L and R.
Wave Gain
Sets the gain (amplification) of the waveform. The value
changes in 6 dB (decibel) steps—an increase of 6 dB doubles
the waveform’s gain.
Value:
-6, 0, +6, +12
FXM Switch
This sets whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF).
Value:
OFF, ON
FXM Color
Specifies how FXM will perform frequency modulation.
Higher settings result in a grainier sound, while lower
settings result in a more metallic sound.
Value:
1–4
FXM Depth
Specifies the depth of the modulation produced by FXM.
Value:
0–16
Wave Coarse Tune
Adjusts the pitch of the waveform’s sound up or down in
semitone steps (+/-4 octaves).
Value:
-48– +48
The Coarse Tune of the entire rhythm tone is set by the
Tone Coarse parameter (p. 129).
Wave Fine Tune
Adjusts the pitch of the waveform’s sound up or down in 1-
cent steps (+/-50 cents).
Value:
-50– +50
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
The Fine Tune of the entire rhythm tone is set by the
Tone Fine Tune parameter (p. 129).

Tips on Creating a Rhythm Tone
The Waves for the bass drum, snare, hi-hat, toms, and
other percussion instruments are each assigned to one
rhythm tone. When adding 3D effects to the sound,
make the Pan settings for each rhythm tone individually.
FXM
FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation) uses a specified
waveform to apply frequency modulation to the
currently selected waveform, creating complex
overtones. This is useful for creating dramatic sounds or
sound effects.
