Random Pitch Depth; Tone Delay Time - Roland Fantom XR Owner's Manual

Creating a Patch
Rather than being played while the key is pressed, the
OFF-D:
tone begins to play once the period of time specified in
the Delay Time parameter has elapsed after release of
the key. Here, however, changes in the TVA Envelope
begin while the key is pressed, which in many cases
means that only the sound from the release portion of
the envelope is heard.
fig.06-054.e
Note on Note off
If you have selected a waveform that is a decay-type sound (i.e.,
a sound that fades away naturally even if the key is not
released), selecting "OFF-N" or "OFF-D" may result in no
sound being heard.
Tone Delay
This produces a time delay between the moment a key is
pressed (or released), and the moment the tone actually begins
to sound. You can also make settings that shift the timing at
which each tone is sounded. This differs from the Delay in the
internal effects, in that by changing the sound qualities of the
delayed tones and changing the pitch for each tone, you can
also perform arpeggio-like passages just by pressing one key.
You can also synchronize the tone delay time to the tempo of
the external MIDI sequencer.
If you are not going to use Tone Delay, set the Delay Mode
parameter to "NORM" and Delay Time parameter to "0."
• If the Structure parameters set in the range of "2"–"10," the
output of tones 1 and 2 will be combined into tone 2, and
the output of tones 3 and 4 will be combined into tone 4.
For this reason, tone 1 will follow the settings of tone 2, and
tone 3 will follow the settings of tone 4 (p. 51).

Tone Delay Time

Specifies the time from when the key is pressed (or if the Delay
Mode parameter is set to "OFF-N" or "OFF-D," the time from when
the key is released) until when the tone will sound.
Value: 0–127, Note
Tone Delay Time specifies the beat length for the synchronized
tempo when the tempo that specifies the elapsed time until the tone
is sounded (Patch Tempo) is synchronized with the tempo set in an
external MIDI sequencer.
(Example)
For a tempo of 120 (120 quarter notes occur in 1 minute (60 seconds))
Setting Delay time
1 second (60 / 60 = 1 (second))
(half note)
0.5 seconds (60 / 120 = 0.5 (seconds))
(quarter note)
0.25 seconds (60 / 240 = 0.25 (seconds))
(eighth note)

Delay time
Tone Coarse Tune ★
Adjusts the pitch of the tone's sound up or down in semitone steps
(+/-4 octaves).
-48– +48
Value:
Tone Fine Tune ★
Adjusts the pitch of the tone's sound up or down in 1-cent steps (+/-
50 cents).
-50– +50
Value:
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.

Random Pitch Depth

This specifies the width of random pitch deviation that will occur
each time a key is pressed. If you do not want the pitch to change
randomly, set this to "0." These values are in units of cents (1/100th
of a semitone).
Value: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100,
200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200
Pitch Keyfollow
This specifies the amount of pitch change that will occur when you
play a key one octave higher (i.e., 12 keys upward on the keyboard).
If you want the pitch to rise one octave as on a conventional
keyboard, set this to "+100." If you want the pitch to rise two
octaves, set this to "+200." Conversely, set this to a negative value if
you want the pitch to fall. With a setting of "0," all keys will produce
the same pitch.
Value: -200, -190, -180, -170, -160, -150, -140, -130, -120, -110, -
100, -90, -80, -70, -60, -50, -40, -30, -20, -10, 0, +10, +20,
+30, +40, +50, +60, +70, +80, +90, +100, +110, +120, +130,
+140, +150, +160, +170, +180, +190, +200

Bend Range Up (Pitch Bend Range Up)
Specifies the degree of pitch change in semitones when the Pitch
Bend lever is all the way right. For example, if this parameter is set to
"12," the pitch will rise one octave when the pitch bend lever is
moved to the right-most position.
