PART MODIFY
fig.9-03c
You can determine how a Part will pay a sound by setting it
to modify the sounds programmed cutoff frequency,
Resonance, Velocity Sense, and TVF and TVA Envelope
attack and release time settings.
Cutoff (Part Cutoff Offset) -64+63
This sets ratio by which the relative change in the TVF cutoff
frequency value for the tone selected for the part is
determined.
Resonance (Part Resonance Offset) -64+63
This sets ratio by which the relative change in the TVF
Resonance value for the tone selected for the part is
determined.
Attack (Part Attack Time Offset) -64+63
This sets ratio by which the relative change in the TVF/TVA
envelope attack time value for the tone selected for the part is
determined.
* Depending on the tone, there may be less change in some cases.
Release (Part Release Time Offset) -64+63
This sets ratio by which the relative change in the TVF/TVA
envelope release time value for the tone selected for the part
is determined.
* Depending on the tone, there may be less change in some cases.
PART CONTROL
fig.9-03d
This sets the Bend Range, voicing method (MONO/POLY),
and Portamento for each Part.
BendRng (Pitch Bend Range) 024
Specifies the amount of pitch change that will occur when
you move the Pitch Bend Lever.
The amount of change when the lever is tilted is set to the
same value for both left and right sides.
Mono/Poly (Part Mono/Poly) MONO/POLY
Specifies whether the Part will play polyphonically (POLY)
or monophonically (MONO). The MONO setting is effective
when playing a solo instrument Patch such as sax or flute.
Porta Sw:Time (Portamento Switch : Time)
Determines whether the Portamento effect will be applied
(ON) or not (OFF). When portamento is used, this also
specifies the time over which the pitch will change. Higher
settings will cause the pitch change to the next note to take
more time.
Making Effects Settings (EFFECTS)
Make settings for the Chorus/Reverb effects used in GM
mode.
If an x mark is displayed at the right of the display name,
the effect for that display has been turned off. Turn the
corresponding effect on before you make settings (p. 141).
PART OUTPUT
fig.9-04
This specifies how each Part will be output.
Output Assign (Output Assign/Output Level)
Sets the output destination for each Part.
The Output Level parameter adjusts the volume of each Part.
Chorus (Chorus Send Level) 0127
Adjusts the amount of Chorus for each Part.
Reverb (Reverb Send Level) 0127
Adjusts the amount of Reverb for each Part.
What is Portamento?
Portamento is an effect which smoothly changes the
pitch from the first-played key to the next-played key.
With the Mono/Poly parameter set to MONO,
portamento is especially effective when simulating
playing techniques such as a violin glissandos.
Portamento can also be applied when this parameter is
polyphonic (POLY).
