Oct/Pan/Vol./Detune; Octave; Pan; Volume - Yamaha PortaTone PSR-6000 Owner's Manual

F1: Custom Voice Edit
Use the GRP. 1 and GRP. 2 LCD dials to select the desired voice groups, and the 1 # and 2 # LCD dials to select
the desired voices.
NOTES
• The pitch bend range for DUAL VOICE is limited to 1
whole tone.

OCT/PAN/VOL./DETUNE

In this display screen all parameters have dual
settings, one for each of the voices used in the
custom dual voice.

OCTAVE

Allows the two voices used in the dual voice to
be independently shifted up or down one octave.
Use the 1 LCD dial to set the octave of the "A"
voice, and the 2 LCD dial to set the octave of the "B"
voice.
NOTES
• Some voices may exhibit sudden pitch changes in the
highest and lowest ranges of the keyboard when
shifted up or down by an octave. The pitch bend wheel
may also cause sudden pitch changes.
• "0" is the normal setting.

PAN

Independently sets the pan positions of the two
voices used in the dual voice.
Use the 3 LCD dial to set the pan position of the
"A" voice, and the 4 LCD dial to set the pan position
of the "B" voice.
The graphic displays indicates the approximate
location of the sound between the left and right
speakers.
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.

VOLUME

Independently adjusts the volumes of the two
voices used in the dual voice.
Use the 5 LCD dial to set the volume of the "A"
82
voice, and the 6 LCD dial to set the volume of the "B"
voice.
NOTES
• The volume range is from "0" (no sound) to "100" (maximum
volume). Use this function to set the optimum balance
between the two voices.
• When the parameter is set to "0" or "100" an exclamation
mark (!) will appear next to the parameter indicating that the
limit has been reached.

DETUNE

Allows the two voices used in the dual voice to be
detuned slightly to create a thicker sound.
Use the 7 LCD dial to detune the "A" voice, and the
8 LCD dial to detune the "B" voice. A setting of "0"
produces the normal pitch of the voice, while positive (+)
settings raise the pitch and negative (-) settings lower the
pitch of the voice.
NOTES
• The normal tune value is "0". This can be tuned down to a
maximum setting of -50 or up to a maximum setting of +50.
Each increment equals approximately 0.78 cents (a cent is
one hundredth of a semitone). The maximum amount of
detune that can be set in either direction is therefore 39 cents
