VOICE EDIT MODE
Random Pitch Depth (0...7): For a setting of 0, a
key will produce the same pitch each time it is
pressed. For settings of 1...7, a key will produce
a random deviation in pitch. Higher settings re-
sult in greater deviation from the standard key
pitch.
Remarks: This parameter is helpful when simulat-
ing instruments which have a naturally varying
pitch.
The random pitch deviation is applied sepa-
rately to each element in the voice, meaning that
pitch differences may appear between elements.
COMMON DATA
9. Portamento
JUMP #210
Summary: Specify the Portamento mode and time.
Portamento creates a smooth glide in pitch be-
tween one note and the next.
Procedure:
From: voice common job directory (JUMP #201)
Select: job 09:Porta (JUMP #210)
Specify: the portamento mode and time
Portamento Mode: If the currently selected voice
mode is polyphonic (voice modes 4-10), the por-
tamento mode is fixed at Follow mode. If the
currently selected voice mode is monophonic
(voice modes 1-3), the portamento mode can be
set either to Fingered or Fulltime.
Fingered portamento: Portamento is applied only
if you press a note before releasing the previous
one; i.e., when you play legato.
Full Time portamento: Portamento is applied
between all notes.
Portamento Time (0...127): This determines the
time of the pitch glide between notes. Higher
settings result in a longer (slower) glide.
Summary: Specify how the effect units are con-
nected, how the sound from each element of the
voice is sent to the effect units, parameters for
each effect unit, and how the effect parameters
are controlled in realtime.
Procedure:
From: voice common job directory (JUMP #201)
Select: job 10:Effect (JUMP #212)
Select: the effect parameter you wish to edit
COMMON DATA
10. Effect set
JUMP #212
Remarks: If you do not want portamento, set
Portamento Time to 0 so that the pitch change
between notes is instantaneous.
As noted in the display, portamento applies
only to AFM elements. It will have no effect on
voices which use only AWM elements (voice
modes 6-8). If a voice uses both AFM and
AWM elements (voice modes 9 and 10), porta-
mento will apply only to the AFM elements in
the voice.
Move the cursor in this area to select a job.
01: Effect Mode Select: Specify how the two
effect units are connected, the effect type,
effect output level, and wet:dry balance.
Refer to 10.1 Effect Mode Select.
