Chapter 3. Creating Your Own Sounds
Fbk (Delay Feedback Level)
Adjust the amount of delayed sound that is returned (fed
back) to the delay. Higher values result in more delay repeats.
* If you have selected any one of the Reverb types (ROOM1–
HALL2), this parameter has no effect.
HF Damp (Reverb/Delay HF Damp)
Adjust the frequency above which the reverberant sound will
be cut. As the frequency is set lower, more of the high
frequencies will be cut, resulting in a softer and more muted
reverberance. If you do not want the high frequencies to be
cut, set this parameter to BYPASS.
Level (Reverb/Delay Level)
Adjust the volume of the reverberant (or delayed) sound.
Making MIDI Settings for a Part
(MIDI)
MIDI
These parameters determine how each Part will transmit and
receive MIDI messages.
Channel (MIDI Channel)
Set the MIDI channel of each Part.
* If this is set to the same channel as the Control Channel
parameter (SYSTEM/MIDI/PERFORM MIDI), attempting to
use MIDI messages (Program Change and Bank Select) from an
external device to select Patches will select Performances
instead. If you want to select Patches, change the Control
Channel to a different setting.
Rx (Receive Switch)
Specify whether or not you want each Part to receive MIDI
messages from the external MIDI devices.
Normally you will leave this ON, but you can turn it OFF
when you do not want a specific Part to be playing during a
song playback.
* To switch between ON and OFF from the PERFORM PLAY
display, hold down [SHIFT] while you press the function button
for the Part you want to alter.
Tx (Transmit Switch)
This determines, for each Part, whether or not data generated
by the controller section is sent as MIDI messages from the
MIDI OUT connector when the Key Mode parameter
(PERFORM/COMMON/PERFORM COMMON) is set to
LAYER.
Normally you will leave this ON, but you can turn it OFF when
you do not want the XP-30 to control external sound sources.
* When the Key Mode parameter (PERFORM/COMMON/
PERFORM COMMON) is set to SINGLE, the setting for the
Tx parameter is deactivated, and only the MIDI messages of the
current Part are sent from the MIDI OUT connector.
86
Local (Local Switch)
Specify for each Part whether or not you want to disconnect
the controller section from the internal sound source when
the Key Mode parameter (PERFORM/COMMON/
PERFORM COMMON) is set to LAYER..
Normally you will leave this ON, but you can turn it OFF
when you want to use the XP-30 only to control an external
sound source.
* To switch between ON and OFF from the PERFORM PLAY
display, press the function button for the Part you want to alter.
* When the Key Mode parameter (PERFORM/COMMON/
PERFORM COMMON) is at SINGLE, the setting for the
Local parameter is deactivated, and when you finger the
keyboard, only the patch for the current Part sounds.
RxSWITCH (Receive Switch)
Specify whether each Part will receive certain MIDI messages
or not.
Volume (Receive Volume Switch)
If you want the Part to receive Volume messages, turn this
ON. If not, turn this OFF.
Hold-1 (Receive Hold 1 Switch)
If you want the Part to receive Hold 1 messages, turn this
ON. If not, turn this OFF.
Program Change
(Receive Program Change Switch)
If you want the Part to receive Program Change messages,
turn this ON. If not, turn this OFF.
* If you want a Part to receive Program Change messages, you
must also turn the Program Change parameter ON (SYSTEM/
MIDI/RECEIVE MIDI).
TRANSMIT (Transmit Bank Select)
BankSelectGroup (Transmit Bank Select Group)
When you select a Performance, Bank Select and Program
Change messages will be transmitted for the Patch or Rhythm
Set assigned to each Part as determined by this setting.
PATCH: When you select a Performance, Bank Select
messages and Program Change messages for the
Patch/Rhythm Set that is assigned to each Part will
not be transmitted.
BS1-7: When you select a Performance, Bank Select and
Program Change messages will be transmitted for
the Patch/Rhythm Set that is assigned to each Part.
In this case, the Bank Select Number that is
transmitted will be determined by the Bank Select
Group (BS1–7) setting. In the BANK SEL GROUP
display (SYSTEM/MIDI) you can set the Bank
Select number for each Bank Select Group.
