Parameter list
Parameter Explanation
No Assign No assignment.
Level Adjusts volume.
Pan Adjusts pan.
Coarse Tune
(Tone, Drum only)
Adjusts the pitch in units of one semitone.
Fine Tune
(Tone, Drum only)
Finely adjusts the pitch in units of one cent.
Portament
(Tone only)
Species whether portamento is applied. Specify “ON” to apply
portamento, or “OFF” if not.
Porta Time
(Tone only)
Species the time over which the pitch changes when using
portamento. Larger values lengthen the time over which the
pitch moves to the next note.
Cuto
(Tone, Drum only)
Adjusts the openness of the lter.
Larger values make the sound brighter, and smaller values make
the sound darker.
Resonance
(Tone, Drum only)
Boosts the region of the sound near the cuto frequency, adding
a distinctive character to the sound. Excessively raising this value
may cause oscillation, distorting the sound.
Larger values produce a stronger character, and smaller values
weaken the character.
Attack
(Tone, Drum only)
Species the time from when the key is pressed until the sound
reaches the maximum.
Larger values make the attack more gradual, and smaller values
make the attack sharper.
Decay
(Tone, Drum only)
Species the time from when the attack is completed until the
volume decays.
Larger values lengthen the time over which the volume decays,
and smaller values shorten the time.
Release
(Tone, Drum only)
Species the time from when the key is released until the sound
becomes inaudible.
Larger values produce a longer decay, and smaller values make
the sound crisper.
Vib Rate
(Tone only)
Adjusts the vibrato rate (the speed at which pitch is modulated).
Larger values modulate the pitch more rapidly, and smaller values
modulate it more slowly.
Vib Depth
(Tone only)
Adjusts the vibrato depth (the depth at which pitch is modulated).
Larger values modulate the pitch more widely, and smaller values
modulate the pitch less widely.
Vib Delay
(Tone only)
Adjusts the time until vibrato (pitch modulation) starts to be
applied.
Larger values lengthen the time until vibrato starts to be applied,
and smaller values shorten the time.
Oct Shift
(Tone only) Shifts the pitch in units of one octave.
Parameter Explanation
Delay Send Species the send level of the total eect to the delay.
Reverb Send Species the send level of the total eect to the reverb.
Pitch Bend (Tone only) Uses the FILTER, MOD, or FX knob as pitch bender.
Pitch Chrom
(Looper only)
Species the pitch in semitone steps (maximum ±2 octaves).
Pitch Fine
(Looper only) Finely adjusts the pitch.
Pitch Shift
(Looper only)
Smoothly modies the pitch in a wide range.
Reverse
(Looper only)
OFF: The sample plays forward.
ON: The sample plays backward.
SYS-Ctrl1–4
Connects to a parameter specied by MATRIX CONTROL in
SOUND EDIT.
