Brightness-Related Settings (Filter); Modifying The Brightness Of The Sound (Filter) - Roland JX-305 Owner's Manual

Level1–4 (Pitch Envelope Level 1–4)
Specifies the pitch difference relative to the normal
pitch (as specified by Coarse Tune and Fine Tune).
You can make settings for the four parameters, Level
1–4.
Range: -63–+63
Positive (+) settings will raise the pitch above the nor-
mal pitch. Negative (-) settings will lower the pitch
below the normal pitch.
* The front panel parameter [SUSTAIN] (Sustain Level)
corresponds to Level3.
Velo Time1 (Pitch Envelope Velocity
Time 1 Sensitivity)
This parameter lets your playing dynamics on the key-
board control the Time1 time.
Range: -100–+100
With positive (+) settings, Time1 will become faster as
you play the keyboard more strongly. With negative
(-) settings, Time1 will become slower as you play the
keyboard more strongly.
When Velocity Time 1 Sensitivity is set to a positive
value, the pitch will change slowly for softly-played
notes, and rapidly for strongly-played notes. This is
useful for creating sound effects, and the like.

Velo Time4 (Pitch Envelope Velocity
Time 4 Sensitivity)
This lets you control Time4 by the speed at which you
release the keyboard.
Range: -100–+100
With positive (+) settings, releasing the keyboard more
quickly will cause Time4 to be faster. With negative (-)
settings, releasing the keyboard more quickly will
cause Time4 to be slower.
Time KF (Pitch Envelope Time Key
Follow)
This setting causes the pitch envelope times (Time
2/3/4) to be affected by the key position.
Higher settings will produce a greater change relative
to the C4 key envelope.
Range: -100–+100

Chapter 5. Creating Original Sounds (Patch Edit)
With positive (+) settings, times will become shorter as
you play higher notes. With negative (-) settings, times
will become longer as you play higher notes.
Brightness-Related Settings
(Filter)
Sound consists of a large number of overtones at vari-
ous frequencies. By using a filter, you can cause only a
specific range of overtones to be passed or attenuated,
thus modifying the brightness. The FILTER parame-
ters let you make settings that affect the brightness of
the sound in this way.
Modifying the Brightness of the
Sound (Filter)
Selecting the type of filter (Filter Type)
Select the type of filter.
1. In the REALTIME MODIFY section, press [FIL-
TER/AMP/PITCH] several times to make the
FILTER indicator light.
2. Hold down [FILTER/AMP/PITCH], and use
[INC] [DEC] or the [VALUE] dial to select the
filter type.

Available settings:
OFF:
The filter will not be used.
LPF (Low Pass Filter):
This is the most common type of filter, and allows fre-
quencies below the cutoff frequency to pass. It is used
to make the sound more mellow.
BPF (Band Pass Filter):
This filter allows frequencies in the region of the cutoff
frequency to pass, and cuts the rest.
