joystick is moved all the way to the right (-60...+12 semitones). A setting of 12
produces 1 octave of change.
For example if you set this to +12 and move the joystick all the way to the
right, the pitch will rise one octave above the original pitch.
▪
Use the JS (-X)
joystick is moved all the way to the left (-60...+12 semitones). A setting of 12
produces 1 octave of change.
For example, if you set this to -60 and move the joystick all the way to the
left, the pitch will fall five octaves below the original pitch. This can be used
to simulate the downward swoops that a guitarist produces using the trem-
olo arm.
