@ Map Sel (Map Select): Map 1/Map 2
This parameter selects the sound map for each Part.
Map 1
Map 2
The basic sound map (Map 1) will be used.
The desktop music sound map (Map 2) will be used.
* If Map 2 is selected, the following display will appear.

@ EQ (Part EQ) : On/Off
When this parameter is turned "on," equalization will be applied
to the sound of the Part. When turned "oFF" the equalizer will
be off.
* The Equalizer can be set on/off independently for each Part.
* For details on equalizer settings, refer to p. 16.
* At the factory settings, the equalizer gain is 0, so there will be
no equalization even if [EQ] is [on].
@ Vib. Rate (Vibrato Rate) : -64 - +63
Adjusts the speed (frequency) at which the pitch is modulated.
Increasingly positive (+) settings will cause faster vibrato, and
increasingly negative (-) settings will cause slower vibrato.
@ Vib. Depth (Vibrato Depth) : -64 - +63
Adjusts the depth at which the pitch is modulated. Increasingly
positive (+) settings will cause more vibrato, and increasingly
negative (-) settings will cause less vibrato.
@ Vib. Delay (Vibrate Delay) : -64 - +63
Adjusts the time until the vibrato begins. Increasingly positive
(+) settings will result in a longer time before vibrato begins, and
increasingly negative settings will result in a shorter time.

@ Bend. Range : 0 - 24
When you move the pitch bend lever or pitch wheel on a MIDI
keyboard, Pitch Bend messages are transmitted, causing the
pitch of the sound to change. This Bend Range parameter deter-
mines the maximum amount of pitch change that will take place
in response to Pitch Bend messages. A setting of 12 allows a
maximum pitch change of one octave, and a setting of 24 allows
a maximum pitch change of two octaves. With a setting of 0, the
pitch will not change.
12
@ Cutoff (Cutoff Frequency) : -64 - +63
Positive (+) settings of the Cutoff parameter will raise the cutoff
frequency. Negative (-) settings will lower the cutoff frequency.
Increasingly positive settings will pass more of the overtones,
resulting in a brighter (sharper) sound. Increasingly negative set-
tings will cut more overtones, resulting in a darker (softer)
sound.
* For some sounds, positive settings for Cutoff will not produce
an audible difference.
@ Reso (Resonance) ; -64 - +63
As the Resonance value is increased, the overtones in the region
of the cutoff frequency will be emphasized, adding a unique
character to the sound.
* For some sounds, negative settings of Resonance will not cause
an audible difference.
® Mod. Depth. (Modulation Depth) : 0 - 127
When you move the modulation lever or modulation wheel on a
MIDI keyboard, Modulation messages are transmitted, causing
vibrato to be applied to the sound (with the factory settings).
Vibrato is an effect that modulates the pitch to add expressive-
ness to the sound. The Modulation Depth parameter sets the
degree of the effect of receiving Modulation messages. Higher
values will allow Modulation messages to apply deeper modula-
tion. With a setting of 0, Modulation messages will not control
the modulation depth.
® Attack (Attack Time) : -64 - +63
Adjusts the sharpness of the sound's attack.
® Decay (Decay Time) : -64 - +63
Adjusts the time over which the sound decays down from the
attack until it reaches the sustain level (figure 1).
* For some sounds, the sustain level is 0 (figure 2). Piano or gui-
tar sounds are examples of such sounds.
