The LAYER Page
High Velocity (HiVel)
Similarly, this will set the highest attack velocity at which the layer will be enabled. Attack
velocities above this threshold will not trigger notes in this layer.
Using LoVel and HiVel, you can set up velocity switching between up to eight layers. If you
need even more, you can do it using the
7-27.
Pitch Bend Mode (Bend)
This determines how Pitch bend control messages will affect the current layer. A value of All
bends all notes that are on when the Pitch bend message is generated. A value of Key bends
only those notes whose triggers are physically on when the Pitch bend message is generated
(notes held with the sustain pedal, for example, won't bend). This is great for playing guitar
solos on top of chords—play a chord, hold it with the Sustain pedal, then play your licks and
bend them all you want; the chord won't bend with it. A value of Off disables Pitch bend for
the current layer. To apply the same Pitch Bend Mode setting to the entire program, make
sure to set the same setting for each layer.
Trigger (Trig)
The Trigger parameter determines how notes in the current layer are triggered. The default
setting is Norm, which causes notes to be triggered when a key is pressed down and a MIDI
note on message is received by the layer. A setting of Rvrs causes notes to be triggered when
a key is released and a MIDI note off message is received by the layer (velocity is determined
by the release velocity of the released key).
A setting of PdlDN or PdlUP causes a note to be triggered when the sustain pedal is
respectively pressed down or released (typically used for triggering mechanical pedal noise
samples). The sustain pedal will trigger MIDI note 60 with a velocity of 64.
Delay Control (DlyCtl)
Here you select, from the Control Source list, a control source that will delay the start of all
notes in the current layer. The length of the delay is determined by MinDly and MaxDly
(described below). You'll assign a continuous control like MWheel for the DlyCtl parameter
when you want to vary the delay time, and a switch control if you want the delay to either
be its minimum value (switch off), or its maximum (switch on). The delay control will affect
only those notes triggered after the delay control source is moved; the delay time is calculated
at each note start, based on the status of the delay control source at that time.
