Knob 3
[
Turn] Pitch Bend Range
This setting works together with the Pitch Bend Type
value (Knob 2) to determine the pitchbend range for the
pitchbend wheel.
To see how the pitch bend range will affect pitch, refer to
the pitch bend type diagrams accessible via Knob 2.
[Range] 0 — 24
[
Press] QUICK...
Calls the quick entry menu (page 83).
Knob 4
[
Turn] Velocity Low Limit
Turn the knob to select the minimum velocity for note
replay. Whenever the A5000/A4000 receives a Note-On
message with a lower velocity, it will automatically raise
the velocity to the value given here.
[Range] 0 — 127
If this parameter is set to 50, for example, notes
received with a velocity lower than 50 will actually be
played at a velocity of 50.
[
Press] MIDI
When this knob is pressed the parameter can be directly
set by a MIDI note-on message received from an external
MIDI device.

Knob 5
[
Turn] Velocity Offset
Use this value to apply an offset to all received velocities
— so as to raise or lower all velocities by the same
amount.
[Range] -127 — +127
If you set the offset to -25, for example, then a Note-
On message with a velocity of 90 will be replayed at
a velocity of 65.
[
Press] QUICK...
Calls the quick entry menu (page 83).
[DISPLAY]
q
The selected pitch bend type will be shown diagramatically on the
left side of the display. For the Normal ... Stop&Rev settings, the
horizontal axis represents the pitch bend value and the vertical
axis represents pitch.
For Up[A] Dwn[B] settings the the pitch bend variation is shown in
relation to a keyboard diagram.
w
Received velocity (horizontal axis) versus resultant velocity (verti-
cal axis) in accordance with the Velocity Low Limit and Velocity Off-
set values is show on the right side of the display.
