[1 Кеу Pad Settings
5) Accent Follow (-7 to +7)
This setting can be made for each Key Pad. It determines the strength (amplitude) of the
accent. Accents are applicable only with sounds used in a rhythm pattern which contains
steps for which accents were specified when the rhythm pattern was written (The resulting
sound will be of an amplitude which adds the value of Accent Follow to that for Level).
* When the value for accent follow is set to а negative value, the
amplitude will be lower. Conversely, with positive values the
amplitude increases. With a value of "0" there will be no change in
amplitude even if you set an accent under Pattern Write.
* When the value for accent follow is set to a negative one, and if the
value which results when both those for level and accent foliow are
combined is less than 1, the sound still will be produced at a level of
1.
* If you hold down and tap the Key Pad, you can hear the sound at
the amplitude which results from adding the value of the accent follow
to that for the level.
* For further details about entering accents, refer to the section three,
" [1] Basic Procedure" (p. 26, p. 28).
6) Pan (L3 — L1, C, R1 — R3)
This allows you to set the Pan (spatial orientation of sound image) that each sound assigned
tothe Key Pads will have, effective when producing soundin stereo. 7 positions are available.
