X
This enables/disables the left/right movement of the
Joystick (Pitch Bend, and sometimes the sound param‐
eter's control).
Y
This enables/disables the front/rear movement of the
Joystick (Y+: Modulation, and sometimes the sound
parameter's control; Y‐: Various controls, or non‐
active).
PAGE 18 - R.T. CONTROLS: DYNAMIC RANGE
This page lets you program a dynamic range for each
of the Realtime (Keyboard) tracks. This is useful to cre‐
ate a sound made of up to three dynamic layers, assign‐
ing each of the Upper tracks to a different dynamic
range.
As an example, you may assign the El.Piano 1 Program
to the Upper 1, and the El.Piano 2 Program to the
Upper 2 track. Then, set Upper 1 to [L=0, H=80], and
Upper 2 to [L=81, H=127]. The El.Piano 1 will play
when playing softer, the El.Piano 2 when playing
louder.
Here is the edit procedure:
1. Use the VOLUME/VALUE (E–H) buttons to select
a track.
2. Use the F‐3–F‐4 buttons to select the L or H param‐
eter for that track.
3. Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to change the
parameter's value.
L/H
This parameter pair sets the Lower and Higher
dynamic range for the track.
0 Lowest velocity value.
127 Highest velocity value.
PAGE 19 - R.T. CONTROLS: ENSEMBLE
This page lets you program the Ensemble function.
This function harmonizes the right‐hand played mel‐
ody with the left‐hand recognized chords.
Up1...Up3
Right‐hand (Upper) tracks.
Off There is no harmonization on this track.
Normal This track is included in the harmoniza‐
tion.
Mute This track only plays the Ensemble notes,
but not the original note.
E(nsemble)
Harmonization type.
Duet Adds a single note to the melody.
Close Adds a closed‐position chord to the mel‐
ody.
Open 1 Adds an open‐position chord to the mel‐
ody.
Open 2 As the above, but with a different algo‐
rhythm.
Block Block harmonization – very typical of jazz
music.
Power Ensemble
Adds a fifth and an octave to the melody,
as heard in hard rock.
Fourths LO Typical of jazz, this option adds a perfect
fourth and a minor seventh under the mel‐
ody.
Fourths UP As the above, but with notes added over
the melody.
Fifths This adds a series of Fifths below the orig‐
inal note.
Octave Adds one or more octaves to the melody.
Dual This option adds to the melody line a sec‐
ond note, at a fixed interval set with the
"Note" parameter. When selecting this
option, a transposition value appears (‐
24...+24 semitones to the original note).
Brass Typical Brass section harmonization.
Reed Typical Reed section harmonization.
Trill This option trills the melody note. You can
set the trill speed by using the Tempo
parameter (see below).
Note: You must play at least two notes with
this option!
Repeat The played note is repeated in sync with
the Tempo parameter (see below). When
playing a chord, only the first note is
repeated.
Echo As the Repeat option, but with the
repeated notes fading away after the time
set with the Feedback parameter (see
below).
Dyn(amics)
This parameter sets the velocity difference between the
right‐hand melody and the added harmonization
notes.
‐10...0 Subtracted velocity value.
Tempo
Note: This parameter only appears when the Trill, Repeat or
Echo options are selected.
