• Left... Effects for the UPPER and PEDAL keyboards
PORTA — This smooths the transitions (continuous
Glide) between notes for legato playing, volume and
effect.
TOUCH — This allows you to control tone and volume
by varying the key force, speed, and pressure you
apply to the keyboard. When the foot pedal is used,
the tone and volume change, depending on the pres¬
sure applied (speed) to the pedal (only for SR70). This
added effect varies from tone to tone.
• Right... Effects for the SYNTHESIZER on the SOLO
keyboard
PORTA — These smooth the transitions (continuous
Glide) between notes for legato playing. Pressing PORTA
I, PORTA II, or both simultaneously (PORTA III) provides
three successively slower transitions.
OCT. UP and OCT. DOWN — These respectively raise
and lower the synthesizer pitch one octave.
PITCH U and PITCH D — These respectively raise and
lower the key pitch by up to a full tone. The pitch
changes depends on the pressure applied to the key.
Some pressure must be applied to the keyboard to
achieve any pitch change.
TOUCH — This allows you to control tone, volume and
effect by varying the key force, speed, and pressure you
apply to the keyboard.
T. VIB. (Touch Vibrato) — This adds vibrato to the
keyboard output. The amount and speed depend on the
pressure applied to the key
VARI. I and VARI. n — These add variations of sound
to the synthesizer output. They are also available for
the UPPER and PEDAL keyboards and may be used in
combination.
(5) Adjust the volume as necessary. The synthesizers
are separately adjustable for all keyboards.
• Synthesizer Tuning (SR70)
The SR Series allows you to adjust the pitch of the
synthesizer relative to the other tones in increments of
1.5 cents up to a maximum of 45 cents on either side.

Note:
The idea behind this function is to use subtle pitch
differences to add depth to the sound. It can, for
example, simulate a duet by 2 individual instruments.
Since no 2 musicians play perfectly in tune together,
the change in pitch that you can achieve with the SR
organ will give you a very authentic sound at 2
individual musicians playing a duet.
