1 to
255
Selects
the
waveform
that
forms
the basis of a
Rhythm
Tone.
Along
with
the
wave
number,
the
wave name
appears
on
the
display
m
parentheses.
<Gain> Wave
Gain
6/0/+6/+12
This
changes
the
gain of a
waveform,
and
is
effective
when
adjusting
the
level
of a
Rhythm
Tone.
The
value
is
displayed
in
decibels
(dB).
<Switch> Tone
Switch
—
OFF/ON
This determines
whether each Rliythm
Tone
is
to
be played
(ON)
or not played
(OFF).

(PITCH)
This
sets
parameters
related
to
the pitch of a
Rhythm
Tone.
•
PITCH
<Coarse>
Source
Key
—
C-1
to
G9
This
sets
the pitch of the
key
in
wWch
the
Rhythm
Tone
is
to
be
played.
<Fine>
Fine
Tune
50
to
+50
This
shifts
the
pitch of a
Rhythm
Tone
up
or
down
in incre-
ments
of
one
cent (1/
100th of a semitone).
You
can
fine-tune the
Rliythm
Tone by up
to
half
a half-step
(one
quarter-tone)
in
either direction.
<Random> Random
Fitch
Depth
—
to
1200
This
deliberately
causes
the pitch of the
Rhytlim
Tone
being
played
to
fluctuate irregularly.
The
value
is
displayed
in
hundredths
of a
half-step.
<Env Dpt>
Pitch
Envelope
Depth
12
to
+12
This
sets
the extent of the effectiveness of the Pitch
Envelope,
Larger
values, either positive
or
negative,
result in a
greater
range
of
change
for
the Pitch
Envelope. Negative values
reverse
the
form
of the envelope.
•
PCH
VELOCITY
(Pitch

<Velocity
Sens>
Pitch
Envelope
Velocity
Sensitivity
—
-100
to
+150
This
changes
the level of the Pitch
Envelope
according
to
velocity.
When
the
value
is
positive,
a larger velocity
value
results in a larger Pitch
Envelope
level.
When
negative, a
larger velocity
value
results in
a smaller Pitch
Envelope
level.

Velocity

Sensitivity
100/-

This
varies
the entire Pitch
Envelope
time according
to veloc-
ity.
When
the value
is
positive,
a
larger velocity
value
results in
faster
change
in
the Pitch
Envelope
time.
The change
is
slowed
when
the
value
is
negative.

Pitch
Time
<T1,
T2, T3, or
T4>
Pitch
Envelope
Time
1, 2, 3,
or 4
—
to
127
This
sets
the
time
Tl, T2, T3, or
T4
for
the Pitch
Envelope.
Larger values
result in
longer times
until
the next pitch
is
reached
(for
instance,
T2
controls the
time
from
LI
until
L2
is
reached).
<L1,
L2, L3,
or
L4>
Pitch
Envelope
Level
1, 2, 3,
or 4
—
to
127
This
sets
tlie
level
LI, L2, L3, or
L4
for the Pitch
Envelope.
It
determines
how much
the pitch
changes from
the reference
pitch
(set
with Coarse
Tune
or Fine
Time)
at
each point
The
change
is
higher than
the reference pitch
when
this
value
is
positive
and
lower than
the reference pitch
when
negative.

FILTER
<Type>
Filter
Type
—
OFF/LPF/BPF/HPF/PKG
This
selects
the
type
of
filter.
If
you
don't
want
to
use
a
filter,
set this to
"OFF."
LPF
(Low-pass
Filter):
Components
higher than
the cutoff
frequency
are eliminat-
ed.
High-range
frequencies are cut
off,
so the
sound
is
rounder. This
is
the
most
often-used
filter.
BPF
(Bandpass
Filter):
Only components
near
the cutoff
frequency
are
allowed
to
remain
—
aD
others are eliminated. This
is
good
for
mak-
ing highly
distinctive
sounds.
HPF
(High-pass
Filter):
Components
lower than
the cutoff
frequency
are eliminat-
ed.
This
filter
is
good
for
making
percussion instruments
with
distinctive
high
ranges.
PKG
(Peaking
Filter):
The components
near
the cutoff
frequency
are
emphasized.
This expresses the
special
soimd
of a
drum, and
can even
be used
to
create
a
wow
effect.
<Cutof£> Cutoff Frequency
—
to
127
This
specifies the
frequency
at
which
the
filter
effect starts
(the cutoff
frequency)
with
respect
to
the
frequency
compo-
nents
of a
waveform.
*
The
effects
of
the
filters
and
cutoff frequencies
vary
greatly
from
one type of
waveform
to
another.
