[F1] Custom Voice Edit
2 COMMON
COMMON includes two display screens covering a range of parameters that affect the entire voice.
Use the and buttons to switch between the two display screens, and the [-] and [+] buttons
below each parameter to set the required values.
l l
Pitch Bend Range (PitBend)
Sets the range of the pitch bend wheel to “0” (OFF), “1”
(±1 semitone), “2” (±2 semitones), “3” (±3 semitones), or
“Glis” (maximum 1-octave glissando in semitone steps),
l l
Touch Sensitivity (TouchSens)
Allows the touch sensitivity of the keyboard to be set to
three different levels, or turned off: “0” (OFF), “l”, “2” ,
or “3”.
3 MODULATION
l l
Octave (Oct)
Shifts the pitch of the voice up one octave (1up) or
down one octave (1down). A setting of “normal” produces
the normal pitch for that voice.
Some voices may exhibit sudden pitch changes in the highest
and lowest ranges of the keyboard when shifted up or down by
an octave. The pitch bend wheel may also cause sudden pitch
changes.
l l
Pan
Sets the apparent position of the voice in the stereo
sound field. The graphic display indicates the approximate
location of the sound between the left and right speakers.
When Pan is set to the center position, the preset pan position
of the selected voice is used. The center pan position can be
recalled immediately by pressing both the [-] and [+] buttons
simultaneously.
The two parameters provided in this screen are used to adjust the depth and speed of
modulation produced by the PSR-5700 MODULATION/EFFECT wheel.
Use the [-] and [+] buttons below each parameter to set the required values.
l l
Modulation Depth
Decreases (-) or increases (+) the depth of modulation
produced by the PSR-5700 MODULATION/EFFECT
wheel relative to the original modulation depth of the
selected voice.
l l
Modulation Speed
Decreases (-) or increases (+) the speed of modulation
produced by the MODULATION/EFFECT wheel relative
to the original modulation speed of the selected voice.
28
Notes:
The maximum range of the depth and speed is from -7
through 0 to +7, although this range is more limited with
some voices. An exclamation mark (!) will appear next to the
parameter when the maximum or minimum allowable setting
for the selected voice has been reached.
The default modulation depth and speed values for the
selected voice are produced by settings of “0”. Minus set-
tings produce gentler or slower modulation, while plus set-
tings produce deeper or faster modulation, respectively.
Pressing both the [-] and [+] buttons below a parameter im-
mediately recalls the default value (“0”).
Modulation is applied automatically to some voices, and
in some cases operating the wheel causes modulation to be
applied automatically.
