Pitch envelope. The editable parameters in this group affect the pitch of
notes.
Octave shift. Changes the tone of notes in octave units.
• The figure below also applied to filter, amp, and other envelopes. With
the pitch envelope, the pitch of the sound corresponds to the vertical
(Level) axis.
• With a hex layer tone envelope, Decay Time can be divided into three
parts and Release Time can be divided into two parts and edited.
• When Decay Level 3 is reached during key release note on, an
immediate transition is made to Release Level 1 without sustain.
• The setting ranges of the parameters below are relative changes
(relative to the presets of the tone) in the case of melody tones and
drum tones. When editing a hex layer tone, they are absolute changes
that have no relation to the presets of the tone.
– Time and level of each envelope
– Rate, depth, delay, rise, modulation depth of LFO (page EN-8)
