RcvNoteOff
Receive Note Off Selects whether MIDI Note Off messages are received by each Drum Key.
Settings: off, on
n This parameter is only available if the “WaveType” parameter in the OSC display is set to “PresetWave.”
AltnateGrp
Alternate Group Sets the Alternate Group to which the Wave is assigned. In a real drum kit, some drum sounds cannot
physically be played simultaneously, such as open and closed hi-hats. You can prevent Waves from playing
back simultaneously by assigning them to the same Alternate Group. Up to 127 Alternate Groups can be
defined. You can also select “off” here if you wish to allow the simultaneous playback of sounds.
Settings: off, 1 ~ 127
n This parameter is only available if the “WaveType” parameter in the OSC display is set to “PresetWave.”
Pitch
CoarseTune
Coarse Determines the pitch of each Drum Key Wave (or Normal Voice) in semitones.
Settings: -48 ~ +48
n For a Normal Voice, this parameter adjusts the position of its note (not its pitch) relative to note C3.
FineTune
Fine Determines the fine tuning for the pitch of each Drum Key Wave (or Normal Voice).
Settings: -64 ~ +63
PitchVelSns
Pitch Velocity Sensitivity From this display you can determine how the pitch of the Drum key responds to velocity. For positive values,
the more strongly you play the note, the higher the pitch becomes. For negative values, the more strongly
you play the note, the lower the pitch.
Settings: -64 ~ +63
n This parameter is only available if the “WaveType” parameter in the OSC display is set to “PresetWave.”
Filter
You can apply filter settings to the Drum Voice. The MOTIF-RACK ES lets you apply a low pass filter and
high pass filter to each individual Drum key.
n This parameter is only available if the “WaveType” parameter in the OSC display is set to “PresetWave.”
Cutoff
LPF Cutoff Sets the Cutoff Frequency of the Low Pass Filter.
Settings: 0 ~ 255
Resonance
LPF Resonance Determines the amount of Resonance (harmonic emphasis) applied to the signal at the Cutoff Frequency.
Settings: 0 ~ 127
CutofVelSns
LPF Cutoff Velocity Sensitivity Determines the velocity sensitivity of the Low Pass Filter Cutoff Frequency. Positive settings will cause the
Cutoff Frequency to rise the harder you play the note. A negative setting will have the opposite effect.
Settings: -64 ~ 0 ~ +63
HPF Cutoff
HPF Cutoff Determines the Cutoff Frequency of the High Pass Filter.
Settings: 0 ~ 255
AMP (Amplitude)
n The “AltnatePan,” “RandomPan,” “AttackTime,” “Decay1Time,” “Decay1Lvl,” “Decay2Time,” and “LvVelSns”
parameters are only available if the “WaveType” parameter in the OSC display is set to “PresetWave.”
Level
Level Sets the output level of each Key. This lets you make detailed balance adjustments among the various
sounds of the Drum Voice.
Settings: 0 ~ 127
Pan
Pan Sets the Pan position for each sound in a Drum Voice (Drum Kit). This will also be used as the basic Pan
position for the Alternate and Random settings.
Settings: L63 (far left) ~ C (center) ~ R63 (far right)
AltnatePan
Alternate Pan Sets the amount by which the sound is panned alternately left and right for each received Note On
message. The Pan setting is used as the basic Pan position.
Settings: L64 ~ 0 ~ R63
RandomPan
Random Pan Determines the amount by which the sound of the selected Drum key is panned randomly left and right for
each received Note On message. The Pan setting (above) is used as the Center Pan position.
Settings: 0 ~ 127
AttackTime
AMP Attack Time
Settings: 0 ~ 127
Decay1Time
AMP Decay1 Time
Settings: 0 ~ 127
Decay1Lvl
AMP Decay1 Level
Settings: 0 ~ 127
Decay2Time
AMP Decay2 Time
Settings: 0 ~ 126, hold
LvVelSns
Level Velocity Sensitivity Determines the velocity sensitivity of the Amplitude Envelope Generator’s output level. For positive settings,
the more strongly you play the note, the more the volume changes. A negative setting will have the opposite
effect.
Settings: -64 ~ 0 ~ +63
EQ (Equalizer)
Same as in Normal Element Edit. See page 72.
n This parameter is only available if the “WaveType” parameter in the OSC display is set to “PresetWave.”
Decay 2 Time = 0 ~ 126 Decay 2 Time = hold
