Vega Ketron, Owner'S Manual

Page: 75 / 122

F3 Pitch:
This calls up a new menu dedicated to controlling the tuning. The parameters available are the following:
F1 Tune: The value indicated in Hertz, that can be mo/- 100 Cents using the VALUE +/- push buttons,
establishes the fine tuning of the whole sound generator of the VEGA. By pressing the two VALUE +/- push but-
tons together at the same time the standard tuning of 440 Hz is reset.
F2 Vibrato: When Off , it disables the vibrato on the timbres that use it. The sampled vibrato of some timbres
is not affected by the setting of this parameter.
F3 Portament: The value set using the VALUE +/- push buttons controls the Portamento velocity.
F4 Legato: This allows you to choose between Portamento, Legato and Mono by pressing F4 repeatedly. The
tied notes function is extremely interesting to simulate the phrasing of some traditional soloist instruments,
such as violins, trumpet, horn and trombone.
F5 Escape: This returns to the initial page of the Utility menu.
F6 Bend Valu: The value entered using the VALUE +/- push buttons establishes the excursion semitones of the
Pitch Bend Wheel.
F7 Bend LFO: This assigns the vibrato control created with the LFO to the Pitch Bend Wheel, the intensity of
which is established by the value that can be modified using the VALUE +/- push buttons.
F8 Bend DCF: This assigns the filter cut-off control to the Pitch Bend Wheel, the intensity of which is established
by the value that can be modified using the VALUE +/- push buttons.
F9 Bend DCA: This assigns the timbre amplitude control to the Pitch Bend Wheel, the intensity of which is estab-
lished by the value that can be modified using the VALUE +/- push buttons.
F4 Footswitch:
The VEGA can exploit two types of optional pedals (FS13 with thirteen switches and FS6 with six switches) to control
many functions, including those already available for the X series.
F4 Footswitch calls up a page that shows the func-
tion assigned to each of the switches. To modify it, use the /- push buttons to select the pedal switch and
the VALUE +/- push buttons to modify the function assigned as desired, amongst the following:
