Chapter 5. Creating Patches
Chapter 5
Time (Tone Delay Time)
Specifies the time from when the key is pressed (or if the
Mode parameter is set to KEY-OFF-NORMAL or KEY-OFF-
DECAY, the time from when the key is released) until when
the Tone will sound.
Tone Delay Time specifies the beat length for the
synchronized tempo when the tempo that specifies the
elapsed time until the Tone is sounded (Patch Tempo) is
synchronized with the tempo set in a connected sequencer
(external tempo).
<Example>
For a tempo of 120 (120 quarter notes occur in 1 minute (60
seconds))
Setting Delay time
(half note) 1 second (60 / 60 =1 (second))
(quarter note) 0.5 seconds (60 / 120= 0.5 (seconds))
(eighth note) 0.25 seconds (60 / 240= 0.25 (seconds))
Modulating Sounds (LFO)
An LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) causes change over a
cycle in a sound. Each Tone has two LFOs (LFO1/LFO2), and
these can be used to cyclically change the pitch, cutoff
frequency and volume to create modulation-type effects such
as vibrato, wah and tremolo. Since both LFOs have the same
parameters, the following explanation will cover both of
them.
LFO1/LFO2 WAVE
fig.05-51
Form (LFO Waveform)
Specifies the LFO waveform.
: Sine wave
: Triangle wave
: Sawtooth wave
: Sawtooth wave (negative polarity)
: Square wave
: Random wave
: Once the attack of the waveform output by the LFO
is allowed to develop in standard fashion, the waveform then
continues without further change.
: Once the decay of the waveform output by the LFO
is allowed to develop in standard fashion, the waveform then
continues without further change.
: Trapezoidal wave
: Sample and Hold wave (LFO value is changed
one time per cycle)
: Chaos wave
When setting or , set the KeySync
parameter to ON. If this is OFF, it will have no effect.
Ofset (LFO Level Offset)
Adjusts the LFO waveform up or down from the center value
(pitch or cutoff frequency). Positive (+) settings will move the
waveform up from the center value. Negative (-) settings will
move it down from the center value.
Rate (LFO Rate) ★
Adjusts the modulation rate, or speed, of the LFO.
LFO Rate sets the beat length for the synchronized tempo
when the tempo that specifies the LFO cycle (Patch Tempo) is
synchronized with the tempo set in a connected sequencer
(external tempo).
<Example>
For a tempo of 120 (120 quarter notes occur in 1 minute (60
seconds))
Setting Delay time
(half note) 1 second (60 / 60 =1 (second))
(quarter note) 0.5 seconds (60 / 120= 0.5 (seconds))
(eighth note) 0.25 seconds (60 / 240= 0.25 (seconds))
When is selected for the Form parameter, this
setting will be ignored.
Detune (LFO Rate Detune)
LFO Part Detune makes subtle changes in the LFO cycle rate
(Rate parameter) each time a key is pressed. Higher settings
will cause greater change.
KeySync (LFO Key Sync)
Sets whether you want the LFO cycle to start in sync with the
timing of a key press (ON) or not (OFF).
