Press the [ENTER] button to actually enter the edits for each display.
The values which are shown in the Strength, Expand/Comp. and Boost/Cut parameters are expressed as a
percentage of the last set value.
After the operation is completed, "Undo → [ENTER]" is displayed. If you are not satisfied with the
Groove or Dynamics results, press the [ENTER] button to restore the original data. The Undo function
only has one level; only the previous operation can be undone.

PSR-SX600 Reference Manual
Swing Produces a "swing" feel by shifting the timing of the back beats, depending on the
Original Beat parameter above. For example, if the specified Original Beat value
is "8 Beat", the Swing parameter will selectively delay the 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th
beats of each measure to create a swing feel. The settings "A" through "E" pro-
duce different degrees of swing, with "A" being the most subtle and "E" being the
most pronounced.
Fine Selects a variety of Groove "templates" to be applied to the selected section. The
"Push" settings cause certain beats to be played early, while "Heavy" settings
delay the timing of certain beats. The numbered settings (2, 3, 4, 5) determine
which beats are to be affected. All beats up to the specified beat—but not includ-
ing the first beat—will be played early or delayed (for example, the 2nd and 3rd
beats, if "3" is selected). In all cases, "A" types produce minimum effect, "B"
types produce medium effect, and "C" types produce maximum effect.
Channel Selects the desired channel (part) to which Dynamics is to be applied. The
selected channel is shown at the upper left of the display.
Accent Type Determines the type of accent applied—in other words, which notes in the part(s)
are emphasized with the Dynamics settings. Various typical patterns from a vari-
ety of genres and world music types are available.
Strength Determines how strongly the selected Accent Type (above) will be applied. The
higher the value, the stronger the effect.
Expand/Comp. Expands or compresses the range of velocity values. Values higher than 100%
expand the dynamic range, while values lower than 100% compress it.
Boost/Cut Boosts or cuts all velocity values in the selected section/channel. Values above
100% boost the overall velocity, while values below 100% reduce it.
