numbers and special characters.
NOTES
• It’s a good idea to give your voices names that make
them easily identifiable. If you’ve created a new voice
that is a variation on the standard piano voice, for
example, you could call it something like “PianVar”.
• Preset voice names longer than 8 characters will be
truncated to 8 characters when used in custom voices.
●
CONTROLLER
The
CONTROLLER
section of the display in-
cludes two parameters that affect the entire voice.
1 TOUCH SENS.
Allows the touch sensitivity of the keyboard to
be set to three different levels, or turned off: “
1
”
(OFF), “
2
” (SOFT) , “
3
” (MEDIUM), or “
4
”
(HARD). Use the
1
LCD dial to select as required.
2 PITCH BEND
Sets the range of the pitch bend wheel to “
0
” (OFF),
“

” (
±
1 semitone), “

2 semitones), “
3
” (
±
3
semitones), or “
GLISSAND
” (maximum 1-octave
glissando in semitone steps). Use the
2

■
COMMON
The OCTAVE, PAN, MODULATION, and TONE
parameters in this display page affect the entire
voice.
1 OCTAVE
Shifts the pitch of the voice up one octave (+1) or
down one octave (-1). A setting of “0” produces
the normal pitch for that voice. Use the
1
LCD
dial to set as required.
NOTES
• 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.
2 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. The pan range is from
“
L7
” (full left) through “
0
” (center) to “
R7
”
(full right). Use the
2
LCD dial to set as required.
