The Phrase Jobs
The Modify Gate Time job
can be used to produce a
more staccato or legato
feel, as required. Experiment with
the parameters to get a feel for what
they do.
04: Crescendo
96
The "Phrase" parameter selects the user phrase to be affected by the Modify
Gate Time job: "001" ... "100".
The "rate" parameter sets the ratio between the shorter and longer gate
time values. A setting of "100%" maintains the original relationship between
the notes, lower values produce a narrower gate time range, and higher values
produce a broader gate time range. The range is from "0%" to "200%".
The "offset" parameter determines the amount of gate time modification.
"–" settings shorten the gate time while "+" settings increase the gate time.
The range is from "–99" through "0" to "+99".
New Gate Time = Original Gate Time rate/100 + offset
(If the right side of the equation is less than 0, the New Gate Time becomes 1.)
After setting the parameters as required press [ENTER] to execute the Modify
Gate Time job. The metronome icon will appear on the display while the data
is being processed, then "Completed" will appear briefly when the job is done.
Press the [F6] key ("Exit") to return to the job list, or a mode key to go directly
to the selected mode.
Produces a gradual crescendo (increase in note velocity) or decrescendo (de-
crease in note velocity) in the specified user phrase over the specified range of
measures.
The "Phrase" parameter selects the user phrase to be affected by the Cre-
scendo job: "001" ... "100".
The "M" parameters above the graphic bar are used to specify the first
measure-beat and last measure-beat of the range to be modified.
First measure Last measure
First beat Last beat
