Sound operating mode
Basic: Vel/Key Zone
Reference
Transpose
Use this parameter to adjust the pitch of the selected oscillator in
semitone steps over a range of ±1 octave.
-12…+12 Transposition in semitones.
Tune
Use this parameter to adjust the pitch of the sample in one-cent
steps (a semitone is 100 cents) over a range of ±1 octave.
-1200…+1200
Fine-tune value in cents.
Delay
This parameter sets a delay time from the note-on to the real
beginning of the sound. With a setting of KeyOff, the sound will
begin when note-off occurs. This is useful to create sounds such
as the “click” that is heard when a harpsichord note is released.
In this case, set the “Sustain” parameter to 0 (see page 204).
Key Off The sound will begin when the note is released.
0…5000ms Delay time in milliseconds.
Velocity Multisample Switch Low-High
This is the velocity value dividing the High and Low layers for
the selected oscillator. Notes struck harder than this value will be
played by the High multisample.
Basic: Vel/Key Zone
Here you can set a note and velocity range “window” for the
selected oscillator.
Velocity Zone
Here you can specify the velocity range for the selected oscillator.
Note: You cannot set the Bottom Velocity higher than the Top
Velocity, nor the Top Velocity lower than the Bottom Velocity.
0…127 Assigned velocity.
Keyboard Range
Here you can specify the note range for the selected oscillator.
Note: You cannot set the Bottom Key higher than the Top key, nor
the Top Key lower than the Bottom key.
C-1…G9 Assigned note.
Scaled Velocity
Use these parameters to scale velocity values received by the
oscillator. By using the “Velocity Zone” function (see above), an
oscillator may be limited to a restricted range (say, 10 to 20), that
may result in weak dynamics when the associated sample is trig-
gered.
By assigning a different value to these parameters, the restricted
range will be converted to a wider range (for example, the lowest
range value of 10 may be converted to a Scaled Velocity value of
0, and the highest range value of 20 may be converted to a Scaled
Velocity value of 127). All values included between the mini-
mum and maximum value are scaled accordingly.
As a consequence, you can create an RX Sound of guitar, by
assigning the guitar fret noise to the 10~20 velocity range. When
a dynamics value between 10~20 is received, the real velocity
value is scaled to the Scaled Velocity values, and plays louder.
0…127 Assigned velocity value.
DrumKit: Sample Setup (Drum Kits)
This page appears when you edit a Drum Kit. Here you can
select a different percussive sample for each key and layer.
Drum Kits use only one oscillator.
Key
Key
Key in edit. You can press a key on the keyboard, while this
parameter is selected, to select a key.
Layers
Number of layers assigned to the selected key. Depending on the
number of selected layers, you can have a different number of
velocity switches.
Assign
Use this parameter to turn the sample on/off.
On The sample is assigned to the selected key.
Off The sample is not assigned. The sample assigned
to the next highest assigned key is used instead.
