Turn the tone stops on or off.
For the tone stops, a type of instrument sound like the one
shown on the panel will play at the specified octave. Add these
tone stops to create your sound. The sounds and octaves are
listed below.

Press the PERC/MTB button to turn MTB off. (The button
will go dark.)

Touch one of the four LEDs on the lower side to turn them
on (the four LEDs on the bottom will light).
Touch one of the four LEDs on the top side to turn them on
(the four LEDs on the top will light).
The following diagram shows the pitches for each tone stop
when pressing C4 on the keyboard.

When MTB is on, the tone stop settings will be disabled, and
the Multi-Tone Booster will be applied to the sound.

Press the PERC/MTB button to turn MTB on. (The button
will light.)
2
Use the three touch sensors on the left side to turn MTB 16' ,
MTB 8' , MTB 4' on or off.
The touch sensor on the right side (MTB Amount) adjusts
the MTB level, or the amount of the MTB effect.

KEY/LAYER
This controls the volume of the KEY/LAYER variation sound.
Each sensor controls the following parameters.
Refer to page 9 for how to use the touch sensors.

Attack Time
ATTACK
Amp EG
Adjusts the amp EG of the variation. This sets how the volume
will change over time.
(1) ATTACK
Sets whether the sound will reach full volume right after a note
is played, or whether the sound will gradually fade in.
(2) DECAY
Sets the decay of the sound following the attack time.
MTB
(3) RELEASE
Amount
Sets how long it takes for the sound to fade to silence after
note-off (releasing a key).
Filter
(4) CUTOFF
This cuts off the frequency range that you specify, such as the
high or low end of the sound.
For instance, you can use a low-pass filter to vary the
brightness of the sound. Making the normal value smaller will
produce a darker sound, and making the value larger will
produce a brighter sound.
Note: The filter differs for each variation.
(5) RESONANCE
This emphasizes the frequencies around the cutoff frequency.
When the value is 0, there is no emphasis, and frequencies
beyond the cutoff will simply diminish smoothly.
At medium settings, the resonance will make the sound more
nasal, or more extreme. At very high settings, the resonance
will sound like a whistling pitch.
