Legato
This is available when the "Mode (Voice Assign Mode)" set-
ting is set to Mono.
On (Checked): Legato is on. When multiple note-on's occur,
the first note-on will retrigger the sound, and the second and
subsequent note-on's will not retrigger.
Off (Unchecked): Legato is off. Notes will always be retrig-
gered when note-on occurs.
When legato is on, multiple note-on's will not retrigger the
voice. If one note is already on and another note is turned on,
the first voice will continue sounding. The oscillator sound,
envelope, and LFO will not be reset, and only the pitch of the
oscillator will be updated. This setting is effective for wind
instrument sounds and analog synth-type sounds.
When legato is off, multiple note-on's will retrigger the
voice at each note-on. The oscillator sound, envelope, and
LFO will be reset (and retriggered) according to the settings
of the program.
If "Legato" is checked, certain multisamples or key-
board locations may produce an incorrect pitch.
Priority
This parameter is valid when "Mode (Voice Assign Mode)"
is set to Mono.
It specifies which note will be given priority to play when
two or more notes are played simultaneously.
Low: Lowest note will take priority.
High: Highest note will take priority.
Last: Last note will take priority.
2.1–1c: Scale
Type (Scale Type)
[Equal Temperament...User Octave 15]
Select the basic scale for the internal tone generator.
Equal Temperament: This is the most widely used scale,
where each semitone step is spaced at equal pitch intervals.
Pure Major: In this temperament, major chords of the
selected tonic will be perfectly in tune.
Pure Minor: In this temperament, minor chords of the
selected tonic will be perfectly in tune.
Arabic: This scale includes the quarter-tone scale used in
Arabic music.
Pythagoras: This scale is based on ancient Greek musical
theory, and is especially effective for playing melodies.
Werkmeister (Werkmeister III): This is an equal tempered
scale that was used since the later Baroque period.
Kirnberger (Kirnberger III): This scale was created in the
18th century, and is used mainly to tune harpsichords.
Slendro: This is an Indonesian gamelan scale in which an
octave consists of five notes.
When "Key" is set to C, use the C, D, F, G and A notes.
(Other keys will sound equal-tempered pitches.)
Pelog: This is an Indonesian gamelan scale in which an
octave consists of seven notes.
When "Key" is set to C, use the white keys. (The black keys
will sound the equal tempered pitches.)
Stretch: This tuning is used for acoustic pianos.
User All Notes: This is the full-range scale (C–1 – G9) that
was specified in "User All Notes Scale" (GLOBAL3.1–2a).
User Octave 00–15: These are the single-octave scales that
were specified in "User Octave Scale" (GLOBAL3.1–1a).
6
[Off, On] Key
Select the tonic note of the specified scale.
This setting is not valid for Equal Temperament, Stretch,
and User All Notes Scale.
Random
As this value is increased, a greater variance will be applied
to the pitch when each note is sounded. Normally you will
set this to 0. This parameter is used when simulating instru-
ments that have natural instability in pitch, such as tape-
mechanism organs or acoustic instruments.
[Low, High, Last]
For details on how to select the desired utility function, refer
to "PROG 1.1–1d: UTILITY."
Copy Oscillator
This function copies oscillator settings to the currently
selected program.
1 Select "Copy Oscillator" to access the dialog box.
2 In "From," select the oscillator that you wish to copy and
3 In "To," select the copy destination oscillator.
4 To execute the Copy Oscillator operation, press [F8]
Swap Oscillator
This command exchanges the settings of oscillators 1 and 2.
1 Select "Swap Oscillator" to access the dialog box.
2 To execute the Swap Oscillator operation, press [F8]
If a scale other than Equal Temperament is selected, the
combination of the selected scale and the "Key" setting
may skew the tuning of the base key (for example
A=440 Hz). If this occurs, use "Master Tune" (GLOBAL
1.1–1a) to correct the pitch.
2.1–1d: UTILITY
"Write Program" (1.1–1d)
the copy source program. You can use the [BANK] and
[A]–[H] keys to select the bank.
("OK") key. To cancel, press the [F7] ("Cancel") key.
("OK") key. To cancel, press the [F7] ("Cancel") key.
This can be selected only if "Mode (Oscillator Mode)"
(2.1–1a) is Double.
