The horizontal axis indicates the value generated via the
Source of the selected Set, whereas the vertical axis
indicates the degree to which the Destination parameter is
affected.
Modulating the Voice—[F5] Com
LFO (Common LFO)
Determines how the vibrato, tremolo and wah effect are
produced by using the LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator).
From the following displays, you can set the basic LFO
parameters common to all elements of the Voice.
This display contains a variety of LFO parameters,
including LFO wave type, speed and effects such as LFO
delay or fade in/out.
n Depending on the selected parameter, the LIST icon is shown
at the tab menu corresponding to the [SF6] button. In this
condition, you can call up the list by pressing the [SF6] LIST
button, then select the desired item from the list. For details,
see page 82.
1 Wave*
Selects the Wave and determines how the LFO waveform
vibrates. The illustration of the selected wave is shown on
the display.
Settings: triangle, triangle+, saw up, saw down, squ1/4, squ1/3,
square, squ2/3, squ3/4, trapezoid, S/H1, S/H2, user
user
You can create your original LFO wave by selecting this. The LFO wave
can be created in the Common LFO User display (page 105).
2 Play Mode
Determines whether the LFO cycles repeatedly (loop) or
only once (one shot).
Settings: loop, one shot
3 Speed*
Determines the speed of the LFO Wave. The higher the
value, the faster the speed.
Settings: 0 – 63
4 Phase
Determines the starting phase point for the LFO Wave
when it is reset.
Settings: 0°, 90°, 120°, 180°, 240°, 270°
5 Tempo Sync
Determines whether or not the LFO speed is synchronized
to the tempo of the Arpeggio or sequencer (Song or
Pattern).
Settings: off (not synchronized), on (synchronized)
n When this parameter is set to “on” and the MIDI sync
parameter in the MIDI display of the Utility mode (page 268) is
set to “MIDI,” the LFO speed is synchronized with the external
clock.
6 Tempo Speed
This parameter is available only when Tempo Sync above
has been set to “on.” It allows you to make detailed note
value settings that determine how the LFO pulses in sync
with the Arpeggio or sequencer.
Settings: 16th, 8th/3 (eighth-note triplets), 16th. (dotted sixteenth
note), 8th (eighth note), 4th/3 (quarter-note triplets), 8th.
(dotted 8th note), 4th (quarter notes), 2nd/3 (half-note
triplets), 4th. (dotted quarter notes), 2nd (half notes), whole/
3 (whole-note triplets), 2nd. (dotted half note), 4thx4
(quarter-note quadruplets; four quarter notes to the beat),
4thx5 (quarter-note quintuplets; five quarter notes to the
beat), 4thx6 (quarter-note sextuplets; six quarter notes to the
beat), 4thx7 (quarter-note septuplets; seven quarter notes to
the beat), 4thx8 (quarter-note octuplets; eight quarter notes
to the beat), 4thx16 (sixteen quarter notes to the beat),
4thx32 (32 quarter notes to the beat), 4thx64 (64 quarter
notes to the beat)
n The note type setting above is synchronized with the tempo of
the Arpeggio/Song/Pattern playback.
7 Key On Reset
Determines whether or not the LFO is reset each time a
note is pressed. The following three settings are available.
Settings: off, each-on, 1st-on
off
The LFO cycles freely with no key synchronization. Pressing a key
starts the LFO wave at whatever phase the LFO happens to be at that
point.
