CP4 STAGE/CP40 STAGE Reference Manual
Design of the CP4 STAGE & CP40 STAGE
VelDepth
(Velocity Sensitivity
Depth)
This parameter can be used to select how the velocities with which keys are
played will affect the velocities actually output to the tone generator for the
current Part. As shown in the graph below, the larger the value set, the
greater the degree to which output velocities vary in response to changes in
the playing velocity (i.e., the steeper the slope of the graph). If a value of 0 is
set, the output velocities will be totally unaffected by different playing
velocities, resulting in an response similar to that of an organ, where playing
strength has practically no effect on the sound produced.
Settings:
0 to 127
VelOfst
(Velocity Sensitivity
Offset)
This parameter can be used to raise or lower all velocities output to the tone
generator for the current Part. As shown in the graphs, 64 is subtracted from
the value set here and the result is doubled to determine the actual amount
by which the output velocities are adjusted. However, if the resultant output
velocity is less than 0, a value of 0 is used; similarly, if the resultant output
velocity is greater than 127, a value of 127 is used.
Settings:
0 to 127
NoteShft
(Note Shift)
This parameter can be used to adjust the pitch of the current Part in
semitone units.
Settings:
-24 to +0 to +24
Detune
This parameter can be used to fine tune the pitch of the current Part in units
of 0.1 Hz.
Settings:
-12.8Hz to +0.0Hz to +12.7Hz
PBRange
(Pitch Bend Range)
This parameter can be used to set the degree to which the pitch bend wheel
changes the pitch of the current Part in semitone units. If, for example, a
value of “12” is set, it will be possible to bend notes by between -12
semitones (one octave lower) and +12 semitones (one octave higher).
Settings:
0 to 12
