NOTES
• When Pan is set to the center position, the preset pan
setting of the selected voice is used, creating a stereo
effect with some voices.

MODULATION

The two parameters provided in this screen are
used to adjust the depth and speed of modulation
produced by the PSR-6000 MODULATION/EF-
FECT wheel.

3 DEPTH

Decreases (-) or increases (+) the depth of modu-
lation produced by the PSR-6000 MODULA-
TION/EFFECT wheel relative to the original
modulation depth of the selected voice. Use the
3 LCD dial to set as required.

4 SPEED

Decreases (-) or increases (+) the speed of modu-
lation produced by the MODULATION/EF-
FECT wheel relative to the original modulation
speed of the selected voice. Use the 4 LCD dial
to set as required.
NOTES
• The maximum range of the depth and speed is from -
7 through 0 to +7, although this range is more limited
with some voices. An exclamation mark (!) will appear
next to the parameter when the maximum or minimum
allowable setting for the selected voice has been
reached.
• The default modulation depth and speed values for the
selected voice are produced by settings of "0". Minus
settings produce gentler or slower modulation, while
plus settings produce deeper or faster modulation,
respectively.
• Modulation is applied automatically to some voices, and in
some cases operating the wheel causes modulation to be
applied automatically.

TONE

The BRILLIANCE and RESONANCE parameters
provided here make it possible to vary the tone of the
voice over a wide range.

5 BRILLIANCE

This parameter alters the cutoff frequency of the filter
applied to the voice, thereby making the sound more
or less brilliant. Minus settings reduce brilliance for a
rounder, more mellow tone, while plus setting in-
crease brilliance for a sharper tone. Use the 5 LCD
dial to set as required.

6 RESONANCE

Plus settings increase the height of a resonant peak at
the filter cutoff frequency, giving the voice greater
presence and sometimes a more "nasal" tone. Minus
settings reduce resonance for a "flatter" sound. Use
the 6 LCD dial to set as required.
NOTES
• The maximum range of both parameters is from -50 through
0 to +50, although this range is more limited with some
