Chapter 1 Creating a Patch
Changing the Volume (TVA)
The TVA (Time Variant Amplifier) controls volume changes to the Tone, as well as its stereo positioning.
Parameter
Value Description
TVA
Level
Tone Level 0–127 Sets the Tone’s basic volume. This setting is useful primarily for adjusting the vol-
ume balance between Tones in a Patch.
* The overall volume of the Patch is set by the Patch Level (COMMON group p. 40)
setting, raising or lowering the Tone level settings of its individual Tones by the
selected amount.
Pan Tone Pan L64–63R Specifies the stereo position of the Tone. L64 places the Tone hard left, 0 puts it
dead-center and 63R pans it hard right.
* The overall panning of the entire Patch is set by the Patch Pan parameter (COM-
MON group p. 40), shifting the Tone Pan values of its individual Tones leftward
or rightward by the selected amount.
Velocity Sens TVA Level Velocity Sensitiv-
ity
-63–+63 Use this setting when you want keyboard touch (velocity) to affect the Tone volume.
Set this to a positive value to have the changes in tone volume increase the more
forcefully the keys are played; to make the Tone play more softly as you play harder,
set this to a negative value.
Velocity Curve TVA Level Velocity Curve FIXED, 1–7 Chooses one of seven curves that determine how keyboard playing dynamics (ve-
locity) influence the Tone’s volume. When set to “FIXED,” the Tone’s volume not
affected by the force with which the keyboard is played.
BIAS
Use the Bias parameter when you want the position of notes on a keyboard to affect the TVA level.
BIas Level -100–+100 Adjusts the slope of the volume change that occurs in the selected Bias Direction.
Higher settings produce greater amounts of change to the Tone’s volume. Negative
(-) settings reverse the direction of the change.
Bias Point C-1–G9 Chooses the MIDI key at which the Tone’s volume begins to change.
Bias Direction LOWER, UP-
PER, LO&UP,
ALL
Determines whether the volume of notes above or below the Bias point—or both—
changes according to their distance from the Bias Point.
LOWER:
Notes below the Bias Point are affected.
UPPER:
Notes above the Bias Point are affected.
LO&UP:
Notes below and above the Bias Point are affected.
ALL:
The volume of notes across the entire keyboard are biased according to the
Bias Level slope, based on their distance from the Bias Point.
PAN MODULATE
Use these parameters to dynamically alter the Tone’s stereo position as set by the TVA Pan.
Pan Keyfollow Tone Pan Keyfollow -100–+100 Use this parameter when you want each note’s keyboard position to affect its stereo
location. Higher settings cause a greater shifting of the Tone’s original pan position
as you move further away from Middle C (C4), where the original stereo TVA Pan
value remains in effect. Positive (+) settings cause notes above Middle C to be
panned rightward. Negative (-) settings cause them to be panned leftward.
Pan Random Depth Tone Random Pan Depth 0–63 Use this parameter to activate random panning, note-by-note. Higher values result
in more extreme fluctuations in the Tone’s stereo placement.
