Descriptions of Parameters
Program Editor Parameters
Keymap L >>
The keymap for the left side of programs using stereo keymaps. This parameter appears as
(Keymap)
<< Keymap R
The keymap for the right side of programs using stereo keymaps. It appears as
programs using mono keymaps, and is the only active keymap parameter.
Key Range Low, Key Range Hi
These parameters set the lowest and highest notes for the layer.
DSP Parameters
Each layer uses a set of DSP (digital signal-processing) functions that you can use to modify the
sound of the layer. Every layer of every program is assigned a set of DSP functions (and
associated parameters) at the factory; you canÕt change which parameters are associated with
each layer, but you can change the values of the parameters.
Every layer has a total of two DSP parameters. Some layers use two single-parameter DSP
functions, while others use one two-parameter function. For example, Layer 1 of the program
Classic E Piano uses two separate lowpass Þlters, each of which has a single parameter for
setting the cutoff frequency. All the layers in the program Retro Roto use a two-pole lowpass
Þlter with parameters for setting cutoff frequency and resonance.
Layers that use single-parameter functions include numbers in their names to distinguish them
from each other. For example, in Layer 1 of Classic E Piano, thereÕs LP Filt[1] and LP Filt[2].
These numbers donÕt appear in the parameter names of two-parameter functions.
Not all layers use their allotment of DSP functions. They have one or two parameters called
None to indicate the absence of DSP functions. You canÕt change the values of these parameters.
Note: When you press the Timbre button, the Þrst parameter you see is the Þrst DSP parameter. To get to
the preceding parameters in the Timbre menu, press < one or more times.
Volume (Amp)
Independent amplitude control for the layer. Use this parameter to make one layer softer or
louder than the others.
Initial Value (Init Value)
Sends MIDI Controller messages with the speciÞed value when you select the program. For
example, if you want to hear the full effect of the Mod Wheel on a layer as soon as you start
playing, set the init value of the Mod Wheel parameter to 127.
Keep in mind that these initial values have an effect only under one or both of the following
conditions:
¥
The program is deÞned at the factory to use one or more of the MIDI Controllers listed
below to modify the program in some way
¥
The physical controller assignments for the internal setup use one or more of the same MIDI
Controllers to modify all programs in some way
5-2
for programs using mono keymaps, and is inactive (you canÕt change its value).
