Assigning Functions to [S1] [S2]

You can assign various performance-related functions to [S1] and
[S2]. When you turn [S1] or [S2] on/off, the assigned function will be
switched or turned on/off.
When Split or Dual are selected
(in Performance mode), these
switches will perform the function
assigned to the currently selected
part (the current part). The part
indicated by is the part for
which [S1] [S2] will operate.
1. Hold down [SHIFT] and press [S1] or [S2].
A screen like the following will appear.

(Example screen in Patch mode)
2. Use [ ] [ ] to select the desired parameter.
"Switch 1" makes settings for [S1], and "Switch 2" makes
settings for [S2].
3. Use the VALUE dial or [DEC] [INC] to specify the setting.
For details on the parameters and values that you can assign,
refer to "[3 (S1/S2)]" (p. 136) in Performance mode, and refer
to "Switch 1" (p. 149) in Patch mode.
4. Press [EXIT] to return to the previous screen.
In Performance mode, the [S1] [S2] settings are saved as
performance settings. If you want to keep these settings, press
[WRITE] to save them in the performance (p. 133)
In Patch mode, the [S1] [S2] settings are saved as system
settings. If you want to keep these settings, press [7 (WRITE)].

Controlling Portamento

In step 3 of the above procedure, assign "PORTAMENTO" to "Switch
1" or "Switch 2."
Turning [S1] or [S2] on/off will turn portamento on/off.
This is particularly effective when used with synth bass sounds.

Playing Monophonically

In step 3 of the above procedure, assign "MONO/POLY" to "Switch
1" or "Switch 2."
Turning [S1] or [S2] on/off will switch between monophonic and
polyphonic playing.
This is particularly effective when used with synth bass sounds.

Simulating a Guitarist's Double-bending

In step 3 above, set "Switch 1" or "Switch 2" to "BEND MODE."
When you turn [S1] or [S2] on/off, the "BEND MODE" setting
"CATCH+LAST" will turn on/off.
If "CATCH+LAST" is on, and you play a chord and use the pitch bend
lever, the pitch bend will apply only to the last-played note. For
example, if you play a chord in the order of "D" and "C," moving the
pitch bend lever toward the right will raise the pitch only of the "C"
note.
This is particularly effective when used with a guitar-type sound.
Switching the Speed of the Organ Rotary
Effect
If you want to use [S1] or [S2] to switch the speed of the rotary effect,
make settings as follows.
Here we will explain how to use [S1] to control the effect. If you want
to use [S2], simply read "Switch 2" where "Switch 1" appears.
■ In Patch mode
1. Assign the system setting "Switch 1" to "SYS CTRL 1 SRC."
1) Hold down [SHIFT] and press [S1].
A setting screen will appear.
2) For "Switch 1," set "Assign" to "SYS CTRL 1 SRC."
In this example, we'll use "SYS CTRL 1 SRC."
Select the patch to which the effect is to be applied.
2.
1) Press [PATCH] to access the PATCH PLAY screen.
2) Select a patch.
You'll probably want to select an organ-type sound.
3. Make effect settings.
1) Press [EDIT] and select "EFFECT EDIT."
The EFFECT ROUTING screen will appear.
2) Press [3 (MFX)].
The MFX screen will appear.
3) Choose "21:ROTARY" as the MFX Type.
4) Press [4 (CTRL)].
The MFX CTRL screen will appear.
5) In the MFX CTRL screen, make the following settings.
• As the "Source," specify "SYS CTRL 1."
• As the "Destination," specify "Speed."
• Set the "Sens" value to the desired amount of effect.
