When NTR is set to GUITAR
3 HIGH KEY / NOTE LIMIT
The settings here adjust the Octave of the notes converted from the original ones through NTT and NTR.
4 RTR (Retrigger Rule)
These settings determine whether notes stop sounding or not and how they change pitch in response to
chord changes. Use the Cursor buttons [4

]–[7

] to select one of the following types.
ALL-PURPOSE This table covers both stroke- and arpeggio-played sounds.
STROKE Suitable for strumming sounds of the guitar. Some notes may sound as if
they are muted—this is the normal condition when chords are played on
guitar by strumming.
ARPEGGIO Suitable for arpeggio-played sound of the guitar, resulting in beautiful four-
note arpeggio sounds.

HIGH KEY This sets the highest key (upper octave limit) of the note transposition for
the chord root change. Any notes calculated to be higher than the highest
key are transposed down to the next lowest octave. This setting is avail-
able only when the NTR parameter (
page 37 ) is set to “Root Trans.”

] NOTE LIMIT
LOW These set the note range (highest and lowest notes) for Voices recorded to
the Style channels. By judicious setting of this range, you can ensure that
the Voices sound as realistic as possible—in other words, that no notes
outside the natural range are sounded (e.g., high bass sounds or low pic-
colo sounds).

STOP The notes stop sounding.
PITCH SHIFT The pitch of the note will bend without a new attack to match the type of the
new chord.
PITCH SHIFT TO
ROOT The pitch of the note will bend without a new attack to match the root of the
new chord. However, the octave of the new note remains the same.
RETRIGGER The note is retriggered with a new attack at a new pitch corresponding to the
next chord.
RETRIGGER TO
ROOT The note is retriggered with a new attack at the root note of the next chord.
However, the octave of the new note remains the same.
