Chapter 3. About the D-FIELD
Applying cyclic change to the sound (ASSIGN 2: LFO)
fig.LFO—
The LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) applies cyclic change to the sound. By cyclically changing the pitch, cutoff frequency, or
volume, you can create effects such as vibrato, wah, tremolo, or auto-pan.
* There will be no effect for part R.

Making detailed settings
1. Hold down [ASSIGN 2] and press [EDIT].
2. Press [ENTER] to select the desired parameter.
3. Turn [VALUE] to change the setting.
Changing the pitch or vibrato depth (ASSIGN 2: BENDER)
fig.BND—
Pressing the right half of the D-FIELD will raise the pitch of the current part, and pressing the left half will lower the pitch.
Pressing the upper half or lower half will apply vibrato. *This has no effect on part R.
* There will be no effect for part R.
Display Explanation Setting
TYPE Select the LFO waveform. TRI, SIN, SAW, SQR, TRP, S-H, RND, CHS
X Select the parameter that will be affected when
you move your finger to left or right.
OFF, PITCH, FILTER, AMP, PAN, RATE
* It is not possible to select the same parameter for
both X and Y.
Y Select the parameter that will be affected when
you move your finger upward or downward.
Display Parameter Explanation Setting
LFO Select the LFO waveform. TRI, SIN, SAW, SQR, TRP,
S-H, RND, CHS
PITCH DEPTH The pitch will be cyclically modulated to produce a vibrato effect.
Positive (+) and negative (-) settings will produce inverse wave-
forms.
-63–63
FILTER DEPTH The cutoff frequency will be cyclically modulated to produce a
wah effect. Positive (+) and negative (-) settings will produce in-
verse waveforms.
-63–63
AMP DEPTH The volume will be cyclically modulated to produce a tremolo ef-
fect. Positive (+) and negative (-) settings will produce inverse
waveforms.
-63–63
PAN DEPTH The pan (stereo position) will be cyclically modulated to produce
an auto-pan effect. Positive (+) and negative (-) settings will pro-
duce inverse waveforms.
-63–63
RATE Specify the speed of modulation. 0–127
