2-3: Pitch - Korg TRITON Extreme Manual

2–3: Pitch
Here you can make pitch-related settings for each timbre.
2–1a
2–3a
2–3a: Transpose, Detune, Bend Range
Transpose
Adjusts the pitch of each timbre in semitone steps.
12 units equal one octave.
When "Status" (0–1c, 2–1b) is INT, this parameter will
affect the pitches sounded by the TRITON Extreme.
When "Status" is EXT, this parameter will affect the
note numbers of the MIDI note messages that are trans-
mitted.
For example if you make settings of +04 and +07
respectively for two timbres that are set to EXT, playing
the C key will transmit a C note number on the global
MIDI channel, and at the same time will also transmit E
and G note numbers on the MIDI channels of those tim-
bres.
Detune (Use BPM Adj. in Page Menu) [–1200...+1200]
Adjusts the pitch of each timbre in one-cent units.
0: Normal pitch.
You can also use the "Detune BPM Adjust" page menu
command to automatically make a detune setting from
a calculation in BPM units.
"Transpose" and "Detune" can be controlled via MIDI
RPN messages. Depending on the "Oscillator Mode"
(Program P1: 1–1a) settings of the programs used by
timbres 1–8, they can be controlled as follows.
When "Oscillator Mode" is Single or Double
MIDI RPN Coarse Tune can be received to control and
change the setting of "Transpose," and RPN Fine Tune
can be received to control and change the setting of
"Detune."
When "Oscillator Mode" is Drums
MIDI RPN Coarse Tune and Fine Tune can be received
to control and change the setting of "Detune." The con-
trollable range is ±1 octave for coarse tune and fine tune
together.
Bend Range
Specifies the amount of pitch change that will occur when
the pitch bender is operated, in semitone units.
PRG: The pitch range specified by the program will be used.
–24–+24: This setting will be used regardless of the setting in
the program.
The MIDI RPN Pitch Bend Change message can be
received to control this and change the setting. (How-
ever it will not be received if this parameter is set to
PRG.) This message is received on the MIDI channel for
each timbre set by "MIDI Channel" (2–1b).

2–3A: Detune BPM Adjust
If the program of a timbre uses a phrase or rhythm loop
multisample (or sample that was created in the Sampling
mode) is matched to a specific BPM, you can use this Utility
to modify its BPM value. "Detune BPM Adjust" changes the
BPM of a phrase or rhythm by modifying its pitch.
This is valid only for a timbre when "Detune" is selected.
When this Utility is executed, the selected "Detune" value
will be set automatically. (☞Program P1: 1–2a, 1–2b, Global
P5: 5–1b, 5–1c)
[–24...+24]
1 Select "Detune BPM Adjust" to access the dialog box.
2 In "From" specify the original BPM value. In "To" spec-
3 To execute the Detune BPM Adjust command, press the
[PRG, –24...+24]
ify the desired BPM value. The appropriate "Detune"
value will be calculated automatically from these two
values.
For example if you set "From" to 60 bpm and "To" to 120
bpm, the "Detune" parameter will be set to +1200 (one
octave up).
OK button. To cancel, press the Cancel button.
The detune value that is calculated when you execute
this command will be added to "Detune" +0000. You
must set the "From" BPM value when "Detune" is
+0000. For example if you execute "From" 60 bpm "To"
120 bpm, and then execute "From" 120 bpm "To" 60
bpm, will not return to the original result. (Rather, this
will set Detune= –1200, which is one octave down.)
