Pitch Detune makes very
fine tuning adjusi
These tuning shifts are
made from the value set in Master Tune (Section 2, "Changing the Master Tune."
Cer P, 2-6)).
The setting values range from -50 10 +50. which correspond to a maximum
pitch shift of +/- one
quarter-tone.
* If you detune the ist or 2nd Tones, i.e. change the tuning of one of them slightly, you get a
unique kind of thickening effect that is quite different from the chorus effect.
VIBRATO
RATE CHANGE
This setting gives each string a slightly different Vibrato Rate for all Tones,
The idea, when (for
example) playing a backup part on a Strings Patch, is to make the Patch sound more like a real string
ensemble, where you would be getting a slightly different vibrato style from each player in the group.
The setting values range from -7 to +7. O indicates all strings have the same Vibrato Rate. As you get
closer to +7, the vibrato on each string speeds up as you move from bass to treble strings. Toward «T.
the vibrato slows down.
if you runaing the sound through stereo speakers. you can ass
