Adjusting The Volume (Level); Adjusting The Pitch (Pitch); Adjusting The Decay (Decay); Adjusting The Stereo Position (Pan) - Roland Octapad SPD-20X Owner's Manual

Adjusting the Volume (LEVEL)

This parameter determines the volume (0–15). At a setting of 0 there will be no sound.

Adjusting the Pitch (PITCH)

This parameter determines the pitch of the Instrument (-24 – +24). Each step will change the pitch
by asemitone (100 cents).
For some Instruments, raising the pitch beyond a certain point will not be heard.
NOTE

Adjusting the Decay (DECAY)

This parameter adjusts the decay of the Instrument (-31–+31). Higher settings will result in a
longer decay time.
For some Instruments, raising the pitch beyond a certain point will not be possible.
NOTE
Changing the decay setting for a Phrase Loop Instrument changes the attenuation time at the end of
the loop.

Adjusting the Stereo Position (PAN)

This parameter determines the stereo position of the Instrument (L7-Center-R7/Random). A setting
of L7 is far left, Center is in the middle, and R7 is far right. At the "Random" setting, the stereo
position will change randomly eachtime you strike the pad.
NOTE
This parameter is meaningful only when the SPD-20X is connected to a stereo audio system.
