PSR-S950/S750 Reference Manual
PORTAMENTO Portamento is a function that creates a smooth transition in pitch from the
TIME first note played on the keyboard to the next. The Portamento Time deter-
mines the pitch transition time. Higher values result in a longer pitch
change time. Setting this to "0" results in no effect. This parameter is
available when the selected keyboard part is set to Mono.
PITCH BEND Determines the range of the PITCH BEND wheel for each keyboard part.
RANGE The range is from "0" to "12" with each step corresponding to one semi-
tone.
OCTAVE Determines the range of the pitch change in octaves, over two octaves up
or down for each keyboard part. The value set here is added to the setting
made via the OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons.
TUNING Determines the pitch of each keyboard part in cents.
NOTE In musical terms a "cent" is 1/100th of a semitone. (100 cents equal one semitone.)
TRANSPOSE Allows you to set transposition for overall sound of the instrument (MAS-
TER), Song playback (SONG), or the keyboard pitch (KEYBOARD),
respectively. Please note that the "KEYBOARD" also transposes the pitch
of Style playback and the Multi Pads (since these are also affected by key-
board play in the left-hand section).
