Style Element Track Controls: Sound/
Expression
In this page you can assign a different Sound to each track of the
selected Style Element. Each Style Element can have different
Sound; after saving the new Style, please don't forget to check
the "Original Style Sounds" parameter in the Style Play mode
(see page 80), to let the Style select the Sound bypassing the Style
Performance settings.
In this page you can also modify the Expression (CC#11) value
for each of the Style Element tracks. This lets you reduce the rel-
ative level of a track in a single Style Element, without reducing
the overall Volume of the Style. This is a very useful control,
when you have different Sounds assigned to the same track in
different Style Elements, and the internal level of these Sounds
must be different.
When in this page, press the corresponding button on the con-
trol panel to select a Style Element (VARIATION1 ...
ENDING2).
To copy the settings of this page to another Style Element, use
the "Copy Sound" and "Copy Expression" commands from the
page menu (see "Copy Sounds dialog box" and "Copy Expres-
sion dialog box" starting from page 124).

Style Element Track Controls: Sound/Expression

Expression area
Use these knobs to set the Expression (CC#11) value for the cor-
responding track. This value can be seen at the beginning of the
Event Edit list (see "Event Edit: Event Edit" on page 112).
Different Expression values can be defined for each Style Ele-
ment. This way, you can set a different volume in each Style Ele-
ment, relative to the general Volume value set in the Style
Header.
Volume area
Use these controls to set the volume and status of each track. See
page 107 for more information.
The Volume value is the same for the whole Style. Use the
Expression controls to adjust the relative balance between tracks
in each Style Element.
Style Element Track Controls: Keyboard
Range
The Keyboard Range automatically transposes any pattern note
that would otherwise play too high or too low in pitch, com-
pared to the original acoustic instrument, when transposed by
the arranger. This will result in a more natural sound for each
accompaniment instrument.
For example, the lower limit for a guitar is E2. If you play a chord
under the E2, the transposed pattern could exceed this limit, and
sound unnatural. A Bottom limit set to E2 for the guitar track
will solve the problem.
Different Keyboard Range values can be set for each Style Ele-
ment.
Note: The Keyboard Range is ignored while recording. The selected
track can play on the full range of the keyboard.
When in this page, press the corresponding button on the con-
trol panel to select a Style Element (VARIATION1 ...
ENDING2).
To copy the settings of this page to another Style Element, use
the "Copy Keyboard Range" command from the page menu (see
"Copy Key Range dialog box" on page 124).
Top/Bottom
Use these parameters to set the bottom and top of the keyboard
range for the corresponding track of the current Style Element.
