: Moving the EV-5 pedal has the same effect as turning the CUTOFF knob
on the front panel, as described in Section 3, "Try Changing the Tone
with
the
Knobs"
( =>
P.3-3)
ff you
have
a
Patch
that
has
the
RESONANCE
knob set high, you can control ihe synth sound with the
pedal like you would with a wah-wah pedal.
: This function lets you change the balance between the 1st and 2nd
Tones with the pedal. You'll hear only the 2nd Tone with the pedal fuily
depressed, and only the 1st Tone with it in the full up position.
: This gives you the same Vibrato effect as pressing the MOD pedai on the
GR-1
itself.
With
the
EV-5
you
can
change
the
Vibrato
Depth
continuously. This lets you get a suitable Vibrato that is between the ON
and OFF positions of the GR - 1's pedal. At this time, if the FAT (MOD)
pedal is selected for the FAT effect, you can get modulation at the same
time using the EV-5.
: This lets you smoothly change the pitch of a synth note. With the pedal
all the way up, you get the normal interval, but the further you depress it,
the further from normal pitch you get. When
the pedal is all the way
down, the interval can be set by the Pitch Shift A "Pitch Shift Range"
setting (cr P. 7-2)for the pedal function.
The setting is in semi-tone steps, so for example, a "-12" means the pitch
drops one octave when you fully depress the pedal. A setting of "+7,"
however, indicates an interval of a perfect fitth.
«The
Pich Shift Control range using the EV-5 may be limited depending
on the Tone,
trequency range and playing conditions.
