FUNCTION

Key

Settings

the same way as the [SOUND JAMMER] slider to continuously adjust pitch, volume, or tone (see

page 13). The selected function is shown on the [VALUE] display as "Pit", "Vol", or "SndC". 

It is not possible to set the [SOUND JAMMER] control and the pedal connected to [CTRL1 IN] or

[CTRL2 IN] to a different function. 

When FS01 is connected 

Press any one of pads 1 – 13, the [START] key, [STOP] key, [REPEAT] key, [TEMPO] key,

[VALUE UP] key, or [VALUE DOWN] key while pushing down the FS01 to assign the function to

the FS01.

• When one pad is pressed 

The FS01 operates like that pad, activating the sound assigned to the pad. This can be used for example to

play the bass drum manually during a performance. 

• When two pads are pressed in sequence 

The FS01 can be used to switch the sound of the pad selected first. When the FS01 is depressed, the

sound of this pad is heard, and when the FS01 is not depressed, the sound of the other pad is played. (This

can be used for example to switch between open hi-hat and closed hi-hat during a performance.)

Operating the FS01 will activate the sound of the first pad, even if that pad is not pressed. 

• When the [START] key is pressed 

Pressing the FS01 will pause or resume playback.

• When the [STOP] key is pressed 

Pressing the FS01 will stop playback or start playback from the top of the pattern or song. 

Setting Range: 50 - 75     (Default value: 50) 

This setting controls the swing amount (rhythm flourish). Higher values result in more pronounced

swing. This item influences only the playback timing of the pattern. It does not affect the recorded data of

the pattern. 

Setting Range: Soft, MEd, Loud, LItE, norM, HArd, Ehrd     (Default value: norM) 

The [VALUE UP/DOWN] keys are used to set the pad sensitivity. 

The following 7 settings are available. 

• Soft (Fixed Soft)

: Gives a soft sound regardless of the tapping intensity. 

• MEd (Fixed Medium)

: Gives a medium sound regardless of the tapping intensity. 

• Loud (Fixed Loud):

Gives a loud sound regardless of the tapping intensity. 

• LItE (Light):

This setting gives the highest sensitivity. 

• norM (Normal):

This setting gives medium sensitivity. 

• HArd (Hard):

This setting gives low sensitivity. 

• Ehrd (Extra Hard):

This setting gives the lowest sensitivity. To achieve a loud sound, the pads

must be hit very hard. 

Setting the pad sensitivity (PAD SENS) 

Setting the playback swing amount (SWING) 

When the FP01 or FS01 is not connected or when it is not pressed
at the time when the [FUNCTION] key is operated, the above
procedure has no effect.
