" SOUND CONTROL
KNOBS
The six Sound Control Knobs give
you direct access to key parameters
o f t h e c u r r e n t l y s e l e c t e d
Performance/voice. Turning any
Sound Control Knob to the left or
right will offset the parameter values
accordingly (left for negative values,
right for positive values) and
produce an immediate result; a letter
"E" will appear next to the
Performance number in the LCD to
indicate the original voice has been
edited. Each knob has a center
detent which represents the original
value of the parameter.
• ATTACK (Knob 1) - This knob
controls the initial attack time of the
voice. Turn it left for a faster attack

time; turn it right for a slower attack
time. (See page 30)
• RELEASE (Knob 2) - This knob
controls the release time of the voice.
Turn it left for a shorter release time;
turn it right for a longer release time.
(See page 32.)
• ASSIGN 1/DATA (Knob 3) - This
knob has two functions. As an
ASSIGN 1 knob, you can assign one
of 28 parameters—including
Performance Volume, Arpeggiator
Tempo or Type, Portamento Time,
and others—to control by turning it
(see page 26). As a DATA entry knob,
you can use it to quickly change the
edit value of the currently selected
edit parameter.
• CUTOFF (Knob 4) - This knob
determines the cutoff frequency of
the filter, or the frequency point
above which other frequencies are
filtered out. Turn it left for a deeper,
more rounded tone; turn it right for
a thinner, brighter tone. (See page
25.)
• RESONANCE (Knob 5) - This knob
determines the amount of filter
resonance or emphasis of the cutoff
frequency. Turn it left to produce a
relatively flat response; turn it right
to add overtones and make the
sound more resonant. (See page 34.)

• ASSIGN 2 (Knob 6) - This knob can
be used to control any one of 28
parameters which you can assign to
it—including Volume, Note Shift,
Pan, Chorus Send, and others. (See
page 29.)
# SCENE 1 & 2
Each Performance has two Scene
memories which remember specific
positions of the six Sound Control
Knobs. (See page 16.)
• Simply press SCENE 1 or SCENE 2
to instantly recall the specified
settings. An LED beside each SCENE
button will light to indicate which
Scene is currently active. You can
store your own Scenes in advance
using Store mode. (See page 44.)
• By holding one SCENE button and
then pressing the other SCENE
button, both LED's will light,
indicating that you can use the
Modulation Wheel or a connected
Foot Controller for realtime
continuous parameter changes
between one Scene and the other.

$ ARPEGGIATOR
Press this button to activate the on-
board Arpeggiator, which lets you
create automatic arpeggios simply
by playing a chord. An indicator will
appear in the lower right area of the
LCD when the Arpeggiator is on.
(See page 22.)
• There are various Arpeggiator Types
a n d A r p e g g i a t o r T i m i n g
Subdivisions. These, plus the
Arpeggiator Tempo, can be specified
with the Common Edit 1 menu
parameters. (See page 23.)
• Pressing this button while holding
SHIFT will "hold" the arpeggiated
chord, or make it continue playing
even when you release the keys.
Pressing this button again stops the
Arpeggiator. (See page 23.)
• An Arpeggiator Split function lets you
split the keyboard at C3; the chords
you play to the left of the split point
will create arpeggiated chords, and
the notes and chords you play to the
right of the split point will play as
normal. (See page 23.)
