Mode Selects the polyphonic/monophonic mode of the track. A track is said to be polyphonic
when it plays more than one note simultaneously and monophonic when it plays one note
only (regardless of how many notes are pressed simultaneously - typical of many synthesiz-
ers produced in the 70’s).
A monophonic track excludes all the notes but one of a chord played on the keyboard;
when you play a chord, only the highest note (
mono right) or the lowest (mono left) will play.
Note: Sound Patches and Drumkits are always in poly mode.
Value range: Poly/Mono left/Mono right.
Priority Assigns a “special Polyphonic status” to a track in multi-timbral situations to prevent “note
stealing”. The term “note stealing” describes what occurs when the total number of notes
played exceed the maximum permitted polyphony: in such cases, one or more notes are
freely “eliminated” to maintain the instruments maximum permitted polyphony. By assigning
Priority to a Track, it will be protected from “note stealing” and the freely eliminated notes
will be lost elsewhere.
Value range: On/Off (---).
Hint: Enable Priority on tracks dedicated to the drumkit, the bass line, the melody line and
the more important backings. Do not enable Priority for too many tracks since this will
render the function inactive.
Detune Fine tunes any Sound assigned to the track, in steps of 1/64th semitone.
Value range: -64 ... +64.
Analog out Audio outputs. The track can be directed to any of the audio outputs (
STEREO OUTPUTS LEFT
/
RIGHT
, 1, 2, 3, 4). The combinations possible are as follows.
STEREO LEFT
/
RIGHT
The sound is “effected” by the internal DSPs (wet). It is routed to the
LEFT
and
RIGHT
outputs, balanced by the Pan programmed for the track.
OUT
1+2 The sound has no effects (dry), overriding the internal DSPs. It is routed to
outputs 1 and 2, balanced by the Pan programmed for the track.
OUT
3+4 The sound has no effects (dry), overriding the internal DSPs. It is routed to
outputs 3 and 4, balanced by the Pan programmed for the track.
1, 2, 3, 4 The sound has no effects (dry). These are mono outputs and are not affected by
Pan modifications.
Effects Activates/deactivates the two DSPs for the track. Eff 1 is the reverb processor, Eff 2 is the
modulation processor (delay, chorus...).
The effects assigned to the two DSPs and their overall level are shown in

Pan = Panorama, position of the sound in the stereophonic “panorama”. It affects sound
generation and is sent to the M
IDI
O
UT
. Pan has no effect on the acoustic signal of the tracks
which escape from the single audio outputs (1, 2, 3, 4).
This parameter must be controlled while you are playing by means of the Function Control-
lers (
S2R: see page on Function Controller).
Value range: (-31, all left)) ... (0, centre) ... (+31, all right).
Random pitch Creates slight pitch variations freely and is useful for simulating the pitch instability typical
of instruments such as bells or some types of ethnic instruments.
Value range: 0 (Off), 1 ... 7.
Random pan Creates Pan variations freely (position of the sound in the stereophonic panorama).
Value range: 0 (Off), 1 ... 7.
