ROOM2:
Short,
low-density reverb
STAGEl:
Reverb
with
many
late
reflections
STAGE2:
Reverb with
strong
initial
reflection
HALLl:
Sparkling reverb
HALL2:
Richly
resounding
reverb
DELAY:
Standard
delay
PAN-DLY:
A
delay
that
pans (moves)
the
reflections to
left
and
right.
<Time>
Reverb
Time
to
127
For
a
tj'pe
from
"ROOMl"
to
"HALL2,"
this
parameter
sets
the
reverb time
(i.e.,
how
long
the
reverb
continues).
For
"DELAY"
or
"PAN-DLY,"
this
parameter
sets
the
delay
time.
Larger values
produce
a greater
sense
of spaciousness.

This

sound.
<Fbk>
Delay Feedback
to
127
When
"DELAY"
or
"PAN-DLY"
has
been
selected as the
type,
this
parameter
sets
the
amount
of
delayed
sound
that
is
returned
(fed
back)
to
the
Delay
unit.
Larger values
result
in
longer delay
times.
<HF Damp>

300/8000/BYPASS
This parameter
sets
the
point (frequency)
at
which
the high-
frequency
components
of the
reverb
sound
are cut
off.
The
HF Damp
(high-frequency
damp)
parameter
is
used
to
simulate
the acoustic
properties of
different materials. (For
example,
glass
reflects
more
high
frequencies
than
heavy
car-
peting.)
A
lower
cutoff
frequency
results in a
"darker"
sound,
and
a
higher frequency produces
a "brighter"
sound.
When
set to
"BYPASS," no
high frequencies
are
cut.

KEY

Key
Assign
Mode
POLY/SOLO
Tills
parameter determines whether
the
Patch
is
played
as a
polyphonic (POLY)
or
monophonic (SOLO)
sound.
Harmonies
can be played
when
set to
"POLY," and
when
"SOLO"
is
selected,
only
one sound
at a
time can
be
played.
<Legato>
Solo Legato
ON/OFF
This
parameter determines whether
the
Legato
function
is
used
(ON)
or not (OFF).
However,
the
Legato function
can-
not
be used
when
the
Key
Assign
Mode
is
set
to
"POLY."
O
What
is
Legato?
When
you
hold
down
one key and
play another, the
Legato
function preserves
any envelope
or
LFO, and changes
only
the pitch played.
This
makes
it
possible
to
emulate
guitar
techniques
such
as
hammering-on
or
pulling-off.
<Bend Range> Bend Range
48
to
(Down)/0
to
12
(Up)
Bend Range
Down
lets
you
set
how
far
the pitch
drops
when
the
Bender
lever
is
moved
to
the
left
(or
when
the
wheel
is
lowered).
You
can
set a
pitch
drop
of
up
to
four
octaves, in
semitone
increments.
Bend Range
Up
lets
you
set
how
far
the
pitch
rises
when
the
Bender
lever
is
moved
to
the
right
(or
when
the
wheel
is
raised).
You
can
set a
pitch
rise
of
up
to
one octave
(in
semitone
increments).
• PORTAMENTO
Portamento
is
an
effect
that
causes
pitch to
change smoothly
when
one
played key
is
followed
by
anotlner.
<Sw>
Portamento Switch
OFF/ON
This
parameter determines whether
the
Portamento
effect
is
ON
or
OFF.
Portamento
can be
used
in
the
SOLO
Key
Assign
Mode
to
achieve
a
smooth
'sliding'
effect.reminiscent of a violin play-
ing
style.
Portamento can
al.so
be used
in
the
POLY
Key
Assign
Mode
(when
playing chordal accompaniments).
<Tm>
Portamento
Time
to
127
This
parameter determines
the
time required
for
the pitch
to
change from one
note
to
the next
when
using
the
Portamento
function.
<Mode>
Portamento
Mode
NORMAL/LEGATO
This
parameter
selects
the
Portamento mode. Portamento
is
always
applied
when
"NORMAL"
is
selected,
but
when
set
to
"LEGATO,"
Portamento
is
apphed
only
when
you
play
in
a
legato
style
(with the notes
smoothly
connected).
<Type>
Portamento
Type
RATE/TIME
This
parameter
selects
the
type
of
Portamento
effect.
When
set
to
"RATE,"
the
time required
to
move
from
the
first
pitch to the
second
is
proportionate
to
the distance
between
the
two
pitch-
es.
When
"TIME"
is
selected, the
change
takes places
over
a
fixed
amount
of
time
(regardless of
tlie
pitch
interval).
<Start>
Portamento
Start
PITCH/NOTE
This
parameter
sets
tlie
point
at
which
the
Portamento
effect
begins.
This
setting controls
what happens
when
a
new
key
is
played
while
a
change
to
another
pitch
is
already
in
progress.
When
set to
"PITCH,"
the
new
portamento
sweep
starts at
the pitch
in effect
when
the
new
key
is
played.
When
set to
"NOTE,"
the
new
portamento sweep
starts
from
the pitch
in
effect
when
the
original
pitch
change
is
complete.
