Alternate Group*

Determines the Alternate Group to which the key 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 keys 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

)

Ins Effect Output (Insertion Effect Output)

Determines which Insertion Effect (A or B) is used to
process each individual Drum Key. This parameter is same
as the Ins Effect Output in the Connect display (page 64) in
Voice Common Edit. Making a setting here automatically
changes the setting of that parameter as well.
When INSERTION CONNECT is set to “ins L” in the
Connect display, Insertion L is used to process each
individual Drum Key, even if “ins A” or “ins B” is selected.

Settings:

thru (through), ins A (Insertion Effect A), ins B (Insertion
Effect B)

Reverb Send*

Determines the level of the Drum Key sound (the bypassed
signal) that is sent to Reverb effect. This is available only
when Insertion Effect Output (above) is set to “thru.” The
setting made here will be applied to the same parameters
in the Connect display (page 64) of the Voice Common
Edit.

Settings:

0 – 127

Chorus Send*

Determines the level of the Drum Key sound (the bypassed
signal) that is sent to Chorus effect. This is available only
when Insertion Effect Output (above) is set to “thru.” The
setting made here will be applied to the same parameters
in the Connect display (page 64) of the Voice Common
Edit.

Settings:

0 – 127

Output Select

Determines the specific output(s) for the individual Drum
key signal. You can assign each individual Drum Key
sound to be output from a specific hardware output jack on
the rear panel. This parameter is useful when you wish to
apply a connected external effect to a specific drum
instrument. The setting here is available only when the
Insertion Effect Output parameter (

)

) is set to “thru.”

Settings:

See the table below.

The FW settings (FW1 –14) are available only when the
optional FW16E is installed.

Coarse (Pitch Coarse Tuning)*

Determines the pitch of each Drum Key in semitones.

Settings:

-48 semi – +0 semi – +48 semi

Fine (Pitch Fine Tuning)*

Determines the pitch of each Drum Key in cent.

Settings:

-64 cent – +0 cent – +63 cent

Pitch Velocity Sens (Pitch Velocity Sensitivity)

Determines how the pitch of the Drum Key responds to
velocity. Positive settings will cause the pitch to rise the
harder you play the keyboard. A setting of 0 will cause the
pitch not to change. Negative settings will cause the pitch
to rise the more softly you play the keyboard.

Settings:

-64 – +0 – +63

[SF5] PageHold

Normally in the Drum Voice Edit mode, pressing a note on
the keyboard alternates the key (instrument) being edited
automatically. When the [SF5] PageHold button is turned
on, the key (instrument) being edited is maintained even if
you press any other note on the keyboard. This allows you
to edit a certain key while adjusting the level balance
between the key being edited and the other keys.
