Wave Edit Parameters

WAVE SETUP

Define the attributes of a wave.
Set the following parameters. Press the PAGE buttons to change parameters and press [-]/[+] to change the value.
Parameter Value
Type SINGLE,
PHRASE
When you change the value of Type, the following parameters are also set automatically. (They can be individually changed
afterwards.)
Parameter SINGLE
Assign POLY
Loop OFF
Reverse OFF
Trigger SHOT
Priority of sound elimination when there are insufficient voices (lack of polyphony) available:
When more than eight voices are requested, SINGLE waves drop out earlier than PHRASE waves.
In general, percussion sounds should be set to SINGLE. However, with longer sounds, such as cymbals, which may get cut off
while they are still sounding, please try the following settings so the disruption in the sound is not as obvious: Type = PHRASE,
Assign = POLY, Loop = OFF, and Trigger = SHOT.
If you hold down [SHIFT] and press [FUNC], the parameter is reset to its initial value.
Descriptions
Specify the wave type.
SINGLE: For single sounds, mainly short percussion sounds.
PHRASE: Produced as a phrase-for loops. The wave tempo can be synchronized with effects. (See
Patch mode.)
* When you change the Type value during sound production, the sound is stopped.
PHRASE
MONO
ON
OFF
ALTERNATE
