This is displayed in Normal Edit mode.
Here you can specify the volume of the footage used
when you play the lower keyboard in Normal mode.
To change these settings, press the [DRAWBAR PRESET]
key of the lower DRAWBAR SELECT section in Normal
mode. When you move the Drawbar 1 or 2 bars of the
front panel, the volume of the corresponding footage will
change. If you pull a bar out all the way, its level will be 8.

In Normal mode when the program name is dis-
played, pressing the [DISPLAY] key once will let you
view these settings in the display.

[Dis, Ena]

This is displayed in Normal Edit mode.
This setting specifies whether the keys of the PERCUS-
SION section can be used when you play the upper
keyboard in Normal mode.

 Operating the PERCUSSION section keys

will have no effect.

Ena (Enable):

 The PERCUSSION section keys will have

their usual effect.

In Normal mode when the program name is dis-
played, pressing the [DISPLAY] key once will let you
view these settings in the display. If this setting is set
to Ena (enable), the Percussion icon will appear at
the left of the UPPER display.

mode.
To edit the values, press the [DRAWBAR PRESET] key in
the upper DRAWBAR SELECT section while in EX Edit
mode. When you move the front panel Drawbar 1 or 2
bars, the corresponding footage or percussion volume
will change. The value will be 8 when a bar is pulled all
the way out.
For details on what is assigned to each bar, refer to
“Using the Drawbar 1 and 2 settings” (p.13).

In EX mode, pressing the [DISPLAY] key once while
the program name is displayed will display the

values. If you then press the [DISPLAY] key once
again, the EX Percussion (Drawbar 2) values will be
displayed.

mode” (p.22).

[0...99]

This sets the volume of the percussion when the [SOFT]
key of the PERCUSSION section is at the normal setting
(key LED dark).

Attenuation)

[0...99]

allows the percussion effect to become more pronounced,
without increasing the overall volume.

PERCUSSION section is at the fast setting (key LED lit).

Perc Slow Offset (Percussion Slow Offset)

This sets the decay speed when the [FAST] key of the
PERCUSSION section is at the slow setting (key LED
dark). This setting will determine how much the speed is
slowed from the value specified by the “Perc Fast Decay”
parameter.
