Global Parameter - Korg Eletribe Parameter Manual

5. GLOBAL PARAMETER

These parameters are settings for the entire electribe.
Global parameters are saved automatically when you turn off
TIP:
the power. You can also save the settings by pressing the Write
button while editing global parameters.
TRIGGER MODE ..................................... [Normal, Seq 1st, Seq Play]
Specifies what happens when you strike a trigger pad in Trigger
mode.
Normal: The C4 note is sounded.
Seq 1st: The first note recorded in the part is sounded. If not
even one note is recorded, the C4 note is sounded.
Seq Play: The sequence recorded in the part plays while you
hold down the trigger pad.
VELOCITY CURVE .........................[Heavy, Normal, Light, Const96]
Selects how the volume and tone respond to the trigger pad velocity
(the force of your strike).
Heavy: Heavy response. This curve lets you obtain an effect
when you play strongly.
Normal: Normal response.
Light: Light response. This curve lets you obtain an effect
without having to play strongly.
Const96: The velocity value will always be 96.
CLOCK MODE.......................................................................................
.......... [Internal, Auto, External USB, External MIDI, External Sync]
Selects the clock to which the electribe's tempo is synchronized.
If you select an external clock, the electribe's sequencer and other
tempo-synchronized settings (such as Delay Time) are all synchro-
nized to the external device.
Internal: The electribe's internal clock is the basis for synchroni-
zation. Choose this setting if you're using the electribe by itself,
or if you're using the electribe as the master device that controls
other synchronized devices.
Auto: If MIDI clock data from an external MIDI device con-
nected to the MIDI IN connector (or USB connector) is received,
the electribe automatically operates as with the "External MIDI"
or "External USB" setting. If there is no input, the electribe
operates as with the "Internal" setting. If clock data is received
from a device connected to the Sync In jack, the electribe oper-
ates as with the "External Sync" setting.
TIP The order of priority for the selected signal is External USB,
External MIDI, and then External Sync.
External USB: The electribe synchronizes to MIDI clock data
from a PC connected to the USB connector.
External MIDI: The electribe synchronizes to MIDI clock data
from an external MIDI device connected to the MIDI IN connec-
tor.
External Sync: The electribe synchronizes to clock data from a
device connected to the Sync In jack.
TIP For details on synchronization-related settings for your
external MIDI device or for a device connected to the Sync
jack, refer to the owner's manual of your device.
GLOBAL MIDI CH ................................................................. [01...16]
Specifies the MIDI channel of the electribe.
If you want to transmit or receive program changes or system
exclusive messages, set the MIDI channel to match the MIDI channel
of the connected MIDI device.
MIDI RECEIVE FILTER ...........................[Off, Short, Short+Program]
Specifies which MIDI messages are not received.
OFF: All messages are received.
Short: Short messages (Note On/Off, Control Change) are not
received.
Short + Program: Short messages and program change messages
are not received.
MIDI SEND FILTER ................................[Off, Short, Short+Program]
Specifies which MIDI messages are not transmitted.
OFF: All messages are transmitted.
Short: Short messages (Note On/Off, Control Change) are not
transmitted.
Short + Program: Short messages and program change messages
are not transmitted.
SYNC POLARITY ......................................................................[Hi, Lo]
Specifies the polarity of the Sync trigger signal when synchronizing
the performance with a device connected to the Sync jack.
SYNC UNIT ...............................................................[1 Step, 2 Steps]
Specifies the cycle of the synchronization signal that is output from
the Sync Out jack to advance the step, relative to the synchronization
signal received at the Sync In jack.
1 step: When a sync signal is input, the electribe advances by one
step. A sync signal is output at each step.
2 steps: When a sync signal is input, the electribe advances by
two steps. A sync signal is output at every two steps.
METRONOME ....................................... [Off, Rec 0, Rec 1, Rec 2, On]
Specifies the setting of the metronome function. The metronome is
convenient when you're using realtime recording to create a pattern.
The metronome sounds at quarter-note timing. If this setting is On,
the metronome always sounds during recording.
If this is Off, the metronome does not sound. If this is set to Rec 0,
Rec 1, or Rec 2, the metronome sounds only during recording. With
the Rec 0 setting, there is no pre-count.
TEMPO LOCK ........................................................................[Off , On]
If this is On, the current tempo setting is locked. The tempo will not
change even if you switch to a pattern that has a different tempo.
KNOB MODE ...........................................[Jump, Catch, Value Scale]
Specifies what happens when the knob position does not match the
actual value of the parameter.
Jump: When you turn a knob, the parameter value jumps to the
value indicated by the knob. This is a good setting to use when
you're editing, since it's easy to detect the result of turning the
knob.
Catch: When you turn a knob, the parameter value does not start
changing until the knob reaches the actual value of the param-
eter This is a good setting to use when you're performing, since
it prevents the sound from changing suddenly.
Value Scale: When you turn a knob, the parameter value in-
creases or decreases in a relative way, in the direction that you
turned the knob. When the knob reaches its full extent in either
direction, the parameter value also reaches its maximum or
minimum; once the knob and parameter value are matched, the
knob and parameter values change in tandem.
