RK-100S parameter guide
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Korg RK-100S KEYTAR. To help you get the most
out of your new instrument, please read this manual carefully.
This RK-100S parameter guide explains the parameters that you can edit on the
RK-100S in addition to providing basic instructions for usage. Read this guide
when you want to adjust or refine the settings.
Preparations
You'll use the RK-100S Sound Editor software to edit the RK-100S's parameters.
Please download the latest version of the RK-100S Sound Editor from the KORG
website (http://www.korg.com/) and install it on your computer.
For details on how to install and use the RK-100S Sound Editor software, please
refer to the RK-100S Sound Editor owner's manual.
Editing the sound
Before you start editing, you'll need to understand the basics of how the sounds
are created. Once you understand how the RK-100S's sounds are structured, you'll
be able to freely create the sounds you want.

The three elements of sound: pitch, tone, and volume
Sound has three basic elements: pitch, tone, and volume.
Just like the analog synthesizers of the past, the RK-100S analog modeling
synthesizer provides "oscillator," "filter," and "amp" (amplifier) sections that
control these three elements.
Edit the oscillator settings to change the pitch, the filter settings to change the
tone, and the amp settings to change the volume.
