Portamento Time; Fine Tune; Filter Lfo (Filter Lfo Switch); Lfo Rate - Roland JUNO-D Owner's Manual

Fine Tune

Adjusts the pitch of the tone's sound up or down in one-cent steps
(+/- 50 cents).
VALUE: -50–+50
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
• Creating smooth pitch transitions (Portamento)
Portamento is an effect that creates a smooth transition in pitch
between one key and the next. When the Solo Switch parameter is
"ON," you can apply portamento to create an effect similar to a
violinist changing the pitch smoothly by sliding their finger along
the fingerboard.
Portamento Sw (Portamento Switch)
Specifies whether the portamento effect will be applied (ON) or not
(OFF).
OFF, ON
VALUE:

Portamento Time

When portamento is used, this specifies the time over which the
pitch will change. Higher settings will cause the pitch change to the
next note to take more time.
0–127
VALUE:
• Varying the sounds by the force of your
keyboard playing
The force with which you play a key is expressed by a velocity
value. When you play a note strongly, a high velocity value will be
transmitted, producing a louder volume or a different tone. By
editing the Velo Sens Depth and Velo Sens Ofs values, you can
adjust the relationship between your keyboard playing strength and
the loudness of the notes that are produced.

Velo Sens Depth (Velocity Sensitivity Depth)

Higher settings of this value allow you to produce notes in a wider
range of loudness even with small changes in your playing strength.
Lower settings of this value will mean that even if you vary your
playing strength significantly, the notes that are sounded will not
have a wide range of loudness.
VALUE: -64–+63

Velo Sens Ofs (Velocity Sensitivity Offset)

With higher settings of this value, loud sounds can be produced
even when you play the keys softly. With lower settings of this
value, the sounds will be soft even if you play strongly.
VALUE: -64–+63

Pitch Bend Range

Specifies the amount of pitch change in semitone units (maximum of
two octaves) that will occur when you operate the pitch bend lever.
The amount of change will be the same whether the lever is moved
to left or right.
VALUE: 0–24
Creating a patch (Patch mode)
• Adjusting the modulation of the sound (LFO)
The LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) applies cyclic change to the
sound. It can be applied to the pitch, cutoff frequency, or volume to
produce vibrato, wah, or tremolo effects. The original tones of the
JUNO-D contain LFO settings appropriate for each sound. You can
edit the patches to adjust the speed of the LFO effect, and the depth
to which it will affect the pitch and filter cutoff frequency.
You cannot simultaneously adjust the pitch depth and cutoff
depth. Nor can you adjust the depth of the LFO effect on
volume. If you need to use an adjustable tremolo effect, use the
TREMOLO multi-effect (p. 84).

Filter LFO (Filter LFO Switch)

Selects whether the LFO Depth setting will control the depth of
cutoff frequency modulation or of pitch modulation. This is linked
with the operation of the [FILTER LFO] switch of the panel (p. 27).
VALUE
OFF (PCH): You can adjust the depth of the LFO's effect on pitch.
ON (FLT): You can adjust the depth of the LFO's effect on the
filter cutoff frequency.

LFO Rate

Adjusts the modulation rate, or speed, of the LFO. This is linked
with the operation of the [LFO RATE] knob of the panel (p. 27).
-64–+63
VALUE:

LFO Depth

Specifies the depth of LFO. Normally, the depth of the LFO's effect on
pitch will change. If Filter LFO is ON, the LFO's effect on cutoff frequency
will change. This is linked with the operation of the [LFO DEPTH]
knob of the panel (p. 27).
VALUE: -64–+63

LFO Delay

Adjusts the time from when the key is pressed (or released) until the
LFO begins to be applied (or the duration that the effect continues).
VALUE: -64–+63
Adjusting the brightness or hardness of the sound
(Filter)
The sound generator section of the JUNO-D contains a filter that can
cut or boost specific frequency regions of the sound. Each original
tone in the JUNO-D has its own filter settings, but you can use patch
editing to modify these.

Cutoff Freq (Cutoff Frequency)

Specifies the frequency (cutoff frequency) at which the filter will
begin to modify the sound. This is linked with the operation of the
[CUTOFF] knob of the panel (p. 29).
VALUE: -64–+63
