The COMMON Page

HereÕs where you Þnd six frequently-used parameters that affect the entire current program,
not just the current layer. The COMMON page is reached by pressing the COMMON soft
button in the Program Editor.

Pitch Bend Range
Use this parameter to deÞne how much the pitch will change when you move your MIDI
controllerÕs Pitch Wheel. Positive values will cause the pitch to bend up when the Pitch Wheel
is pushed up, while negative values will cause the inverse. Large positive values can cause
samples to bend to their maximum upward pitch shift before the Pitch Wheel is fully up. This
will not happen when bending pitch down.
Monophonic
When off, the program is polyphonicÑit can play up to 48 notes at a time. Notice that when the
Mono Mode parameter is off, the three Portamento parameters do not appear on the
COMMON page. This is because only monophonic programs can use portamento.
When On, the program will play only one note at a time. This makes it possible to use
portamento, so the remaining parameters appear.
