TONE

The brilliance and resonance parameters provided here make it possible to vary the tone of the voice over a wide range.
Use the [-] and [+] buttons below each parameter to set the required values.
TONE
Brilli=
– +
Brilliance (Brilli)
This parameter alters the cutoff frequency of the filter
applied to the voice, thereby making the sound more or
less brilliant. Minus settings reduce brilliance for a
rounder, more mellow tone, while plus setting increase
brilliance for a sharper tone.
Resonance (Resonanc)
Plus settings increase the height of a resonant peak at
the filter cutoff frequency, giving the voice greater pres-
ence and sometimes a more "nasal" tone. Minus settings
reduce resonance for a "flatter" sound.
The following functions are available when editing voices 90 through 97. Different groups of
edit functions are provided for the PSR-5700 normal voices (00 through 89 — page 27) and drum
voices (98 and 99 — page 33).
For all parameters described here the preset value can be instantly recalled by pressing both the [-] and
[+] buttons simultaneously.

Notes:
The maximum range of both parameters is from -50
through 0 to +50, although this range is more limited with
some voices. An exclamation mark (!) will appear next to the
parameter when the maximum or minimum allowable setting
for the selected voice has been reached.
The default values for the selected voice are produced by
settings of "0". Pressing both the [-] and [+] buttons below a
parameter immediately recalls the default value ("0").

Notes:
Give your dual voice names that identify both the voices
used, if possible. If you've created a new dual voice that
combines piano and organ, for example, you could call it
something like "PianOrg".
