Explanation
Oct Shift
(Octave Shift)
-3–+3
Shifts the pitch of the keyboard in one-
octave units.
Coarse Tune
(Coarse Tune)
-48–+48
Specifies the pitch in semitone units.
Fine Tune
(Fine Tune)
-50–+50
Finely adjusts the pitch in one-cent units.
Bend Range
(Bend Range)
0–24, TONE
When pitch bend is assigned to a
controller such as the ribbon controller,
this specifies the amount of pitch change
(in semitone units, maximum of two
octaves) that occurs when you operate
the controller.
Bend Mode
(Bend Mode)
When pitch bend is assigned to a controller such as the ribbon
controller, this specifies how the controller operates.
NORMAL
The conventional pitch bend effect
occurs.
C+L
(CATCH + LAST)
The pitch bend effect applies only to the
last-played note. If a note-on occurs while
pitch bend is already applied, the new
note sounds at the center pitch. The pitch
starts changing only after the controller
passes through its center position.
TONE
The tone setting is used.

Explanation
Type
(Scale Tune Type)
CUSTOM
Custom:
This lets you create a custom scale.
EQUAL
Equal Temperament:
This tuning divides an octave into 12
equal parts. Every interval produces
about the same amount of slight
dissonance.
JUST-MAJ
Just (Major):
This scale eliminates dissonance in
fifths and thirds. It is unsuited to playing
melodies and cannot be transposed, but
is capable of beautiful sonorities.
JUST-MIN
Just (Minor):
The scales of the major and minor just
intonations are different. You can get the
same effect with the minor scale as with
the major scale.
PYTHAGORE
Pythagorean:
This scale, devised by the philosopher
Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in
fourths and fifths. Dissonance is produced
in thirds, but melodies are euphonious.
KIRNBERGE
Kirnberger:
This scale is a modification of the
meantone and just intonations that
permits greater freedom in transposition
to other keys. Performances are possible
in all keys (III).
MEANTONE
Meantone:
This scale makes some compromises in
just intonation, enabling transposition to
other keys.
WERCKMEIS
Werckmeister:
This is a combination of the meantone
and Pythagorean scales. Performances
are possible in all keys (first technique, III).
ARABIC
Arabic Scale:
This scale is suitable for Arabic music.

Explanation
Cutoff
(Cutoff Offset)
-64–+63
Adjusts how far the filter is open.
Increasing this value makes the sound
brighter, and decreasing it makes the
sound darker.
Resonance
(Resonance Offset)
-64–+63
Emphasizes the frequency components
near the cutoff frequency, giving a
distinctive character to the sound.
Raising this value excessively might cause
oscillation, making the sound distort.
Increasing this value strengthens the
character, and decreasing it weakens the
character.
Attack
(Attack Time Offset)
-64–+63
Adjusts the time over which the sound
reaches its maximum volume after you
press the key.
Larger settings of this value make the
attack gentler, and smaller settings make
the attack sharper.
Decay
(Decay Time Offset)
-64–+63
Adjusts the time over which the volume
decreases from its maximum value.
Larger settings of this value make the
decay longer, and smaller settings make
the decay shorter.
Release
(Release Time Offset)
-64–+63
Adjusts the time over which the sound
decays to silence after you release the
key.
Larger settings of this value make the
sound linger, and smaller settings make
the sound end more sharply.
Vib Rate
(Vibrato Rate)
-64–+63
Adjust the vibrato speed (the rate at
which the pitch is modulated). The pitch
will be modulated more rapidly for higher
settings, and more slowly with lower
settings.
Vib Depth
(Vibrato Depth)
-64–+63
This adjusts the depth of the vibrato
effect (the depth at which the pitch is
modulated).
The pitch will be modulated more greatly
for higher settings, and less with lower
settings.
Vib Delay
(Vibrato Delay)
-64–+63
Adjusts the time until vibrato (pitch
modulation) starts to apply.
Higher settings will produce a longer
delay time before vibrato begins, while
lower settings produce a shorter time.
Velo Sens
(Velocity Sens Offset)
-63–+63
Adjusts the velocity sensitivity.
Larger settings raise the sensitivity.

Explanation
FllwToneMfx
(Follow Tone MFX)
OFF, ON
Turn this “ON” if you want to use the MFX
settings of the tone that is assigned to
the part.
If this is “OFF,” you can edit the MFX type
and its parameters.
MFX Type
(MFX Type)
Selects the MFX type.
Press the [Enter] button to enter the MFX Edit screen and edit
the MFX parameters. To exit the MFX Edit screen, press the
[EXIT] button.
*
If FllwToneMfx is ON, the MFX settings of the tone are used, so you won’t
be able to edit the values.
