Tyros4 Reference Manual
In addition to the Natural Minor transposition above, augmented and diminished chords affect
the 5th note of the Source pattern.
When the played chord changes from a major to a minor chord, this table lowers the third and
seventh intervals in the scale by a semitone. When the chord changes from a minor to a major
chord, the minor third and flatted seventh intervals are raised by a semitone. Other notes are
not changed. Use this for chord channels of Sections which respond only to a Major/minor
chord such as Intros and Endings.
In addition to the Dorian transposition above, augmented and diminished chords affect the 5th
note of the Source pattern.
This table covers both strummed- and arpeggio-played sound.
Suitable for stroke-played sound of the guitar. Some notes may sound as if it is muted—this is
normal condition when the chord is played on guitar by stroke.
Suitable for arpeggio-played sound of the guitar. Using this table, four notes arpeggio sounds
most beautiful.
This sets the highest key (upper octave limit) of the note transposition for the chord
root change. Any notes calculated to be higher than the highest key are transposed
down to the next lowest octave. This setting is available only when the NTR parame-
ter (page 51) is set to "Root Trans."
Example—When the highest key is F.
Root changes
Notes played
These set the note range (highest and lowest notes) for Voices recorded to the Style
channels. By judicious setting of this range, you can ensure that the Voices sound as
realistic as possible—in other words, that no notes outside the natural range are
sounded (e.g., high bass sounds or low piccolo sounds).
Example—When the lowest note is C3 and the highest is D4.
Root changes
Notes played
The notes stop sounding.
The pitch of the note will bend without a new attack to match the type of the new chord.
The pitch of the note will bend without a new attack to match the root of the new chord.
The note is retriggered with a new attack at a new pitch corresponding to the next chord.
The note is retriggered with a new attack at the root note of the next chord. However, the
octave of the new note remains the same.
