Type 1
This curve requires you to play strongly in order to produce an ef-
fect.
Type 2, 3
Type 4
This is a typical curve.
Type 5
Type 6
This curve produces an effect without requiring you to play very
strongly.
Type 7
This curve produces a fairly steady effect with little change for medi-
um-strength playing.
Type 8
This curve produces a fairly steady effect with little change for medi-
um-strength playing (a flatter curve than 7).
Const 127
All notes will sound at maximum velocity.
Curve types 7 and 8 produce little change for medium-strength playing, and are suitable when
keyboard velocity is not required, or when you want to play each note at the same velocity. How-
ever, these curves will produce a great deal of change with softly played notes, so the sound may
be more difficult to control. Choose the curve that is most appropriate for your playing dynamics
or for the effect you want to obtain.
Knob Mode
The front panel knobs can operate in one of three modes:
Jump: When you turn the knob, the parameter value will jump to the value indicated by the knob.
Since this makes it easy to hear the results while editing, we recommend that you use this setting.
Catch: Turning the knob will not change the parameter value until the knob position matches the
stored value. We recommend that you use this setting when you don't want the sound to change
abruptly, such as while performing.
Scale: When you turn the knob, the parameter value will increase or decrease in a relative man-
ner in the direction that it is turned. When you turn the knob and it reaches the full extent of its
motion, it will operate proportionate to the maximum or minimum value of the parameter. Once
the knob position matches the parameter value, the knob position and parameter value will subse-
quently be linked.
If the parameter value does not change
In some cases, the parameter value may not change, even when you turn the knob from left to
right. This means that the knob mode is set to "Catch".
In this case, the actual value of the parameter you're editing (the value shown in the display)
will not change unless it matches the position of the knob. In Catch mode, the knob position
and the value will be linked only when the knob position reaches the actual value. This pre-
vents an unnatural change in sound that is caused when a value suddenly changes.
Let's say that you've turned the knob to edit a certain parameter, and that the
knob is in the position shown.
The actual value of the parameter is at the position shown by the triangle.
The parameter value will not change until the knob position reaches the triangle
mark.
Once the knob has reached the position corresponding to the actual value, the
parameter value and the knob position will be linked, and the value will change as
you turn the knob.
