Changing the Speed of the
Rotary Effect to Synchronize It to
the LFO Cycle
Instead of using an effects controller, you can use the Matrix
Controller (p. 78) to change Multi-effect parameters. Here,
try changing the speed of the rotary effect to synchronize it to
the LFO cycle.
1. Select the Patch PR-A: 054 Rocker Spin on the PATCH
PLAY page.
This Patch uses ROTARY as the Multi-effects type.
2. Call up the PATCH MFX CTRL page (PATCH/
EFFECTS), then set the parameters as follows (p. 115).
• Source: OFF
• Destination: SPEED
• Sens: 0
3. Set the Control 1 parameter (PATCH/CONTROL/
MATRIX CTRL SRC) to 105:LFO1 (p. 78).
4. Call up the MATRIX CONTROL1 page (PATCH/
CONTROL), then set the parameters as follows (p. 79).
• Dest: MFX CTRL1
• Sns: +63
• Tone: ooo_ (applied to Tone 1–3)
5. Play the keyboard.
The speed of the rotary effect is synchronized to the LFO
cycle.
Changing the Tone Produced
with the Modulation Lever
While using the Matrix Controller check out how you can get
sounds of two different Tones by moving the Modulation
lever to the left and right.
1. Select a Patch on the PATCH PLAY page.
2. On the WAVE page (PATCH/WAVE), select the
waveforms for the two Tones (Tone 1 and Tone 2) you
want to have played (p. 81).
3. Set the TMT Velocity Control parameter (PATCH/
COMMON/TMT VELO CONTROL) to OFF (p. 72).
4. Call up the TMT VEL RANG page (PATCH/
COMMON), then set the parameters for Tone 1 and Tone
2 as follows (p. 72).
Tone 1
• Lower: 1
• Upper: 63
200
Tone 2
64
127
When you want to switch between Tones more
smoothly, set the L.Fade or U.Fade parameters. The
higher the values set, the smoother the switch is between
the Tones.
5. Set the TMT Ctrl Sw parameter (PATCH/CONTROL/
CONTROL&BENDER) to ON (p. 78).
6. Set the Control 1 parameter (PATCH/CONTROL/
MATRIX CTRL SRC) to CC01:MODULATION (p. 78).
7. Call up the MATRIX CONTROL1 page (PATCH/
CONTROL), then set the parameters as follows (p. 79).
• Dest: TMT
• Sns: +63
• Tone: oo_ _ (applied to Tone 1 and 2)
8. While playing the keyboard, move the Modulation lever.
By moving the Modulation lever to the other side, you
can switch from Tone 1 to Tone 2.
Syncing the LFO Cycle to System
Tempo
You can synchronize the LFO cycle to a specified tempo or an
external MIDI device. In the following example, we will
synchronize the LFO cycle to the system tempo.
1. Select the Patch PR-B: 052 Blade Racer on the PATCH
PLAY page.
2. Set the Clock Source parameter (PATCH/COMMON/
PATCH TEMPO) to SYSTEM (p. 71).
3. Set the Rate parameter (PATCH/LFO/LFO 1, 2 WAVE)
of each Tone to the beat length for the tempo you are
synchronizing (p. 83).
4. At the LFO DEPTH1:2 page (PATCH/LFO), set the
modulation depth for each Tone (p. 85).
5. Set the Clock Source parameter (SYSTEM/SETUP/
SYSTEM SETUP) to INT (p. 168).
When the Clock Source parameter is set to MIDI, you can
achieve synchronization with the tempo of an external
MIDI device.
6. Try playing the keyboard while you change the System
Tempo parameter (SYSTEM/SETUP/SYSTEM SETUP)
to various values (p. 169).
You'll notice that the tempo of the Patch's modulation
changes in accordance to the tempo clock of the XV-88's
system.
