Dec Lo (Type/Dyn)
This parameter can activate a second
Tone decay, a dynamic decay that will be
introduced when you use less velocity . The
second decay time can be either longer or
shorter than the original decay .
M
At approx. 25% of the maximum velocity,
the Decay time is fully replaced by the Dec
Lo time.
Range:
OFF
,
0 - 50
Pitch
Set the basic pitch of the
Tone, in semitones . The pitch
is shown in the Display as MIDI Note Num-
bers . A setting of 69 .0 equals A = 440 Hz .

Scl Pre
Use the Scl Pre feature with an Edit Group
to quickly set up different pitch relationships
between pads .
Hold Shift and press the Edit Group button
repeatedly to create an Edit Group . Hold the
SCL Pre button and select a scale with the
Dial .
The pitches will begin at the set pitch on the
lowest numbered channel in the Edit Group
and increase with a factor determined by the
selected scale on the selected channels .
If a Scale has been used to set a pitch
relationship, you can change the pitch of one
channel without breaking the pitch relation-
ship . This will move all the other pitches until
one of the pitches reaches the maximum, or
minimum pitch (“0” or “127 .5”) .

The SCL Pre is not a parameter as such
and will not be stored as one. It will act
as a macro on the pitch settings of the
selected channels.
Bend
The Bend feature bends the
pitch of the Tone . The Bend
has two directions indicated by symbols in
the display, for bending up to the Tone pitch
or for bending down . This parameter is veloc-
ity sensitive .
