5. Global parameters

The settings you make from the global screen will apply to the entire micro-
KORG XL+, such as the overall tuning and the velocity curve.
MST TUNE (Master Tune) ...............................................[430.0...450.0Hz]
Adjusts the overall pitch in 0.1 Hz steps, in terms of A4 as the reference
pitch. Use this when you need to tune the pitch of the microKORG XL+ to
other instruments.
TRANSPOS (Transpose).......................................................... [–12...+12]
Adjusts the overall pitch in steps of a semitone (100 cents) over a range of
one octave up or down. Use this when you want to transpose to suit the
song you are playing.
VEL.CURVE (Velocity Curve) ......................................... [1...8, CONST127]
Different velocity curve lets you tailor the response of the keyboard to your
own playing style. Lighter curves are best for heavy-handed players, higher
curves may work better for players with a light touch.

(MIDI Velocity)

This curve requires you to play strongly in order

to produce an effect.
2, 3

This is the typical curve.
5
This curve produces an effect without requiring
6
you to play very strongly.
This curve produces a fairly steady effect with lit-
7
tle change for medium-strength playing.
This curve produces a fairly steady effect with lit-
8
tle change for medium-strength playing (a flatter
curve than 7).
All notes will sound maximum velocity (127).
CONST127
This setting mimics the behavior of early analog
synths.
Curves 7 and 8 produce little change for medium-strength playing. How-
NOTE
ever, these curves will produce a great deal of change with softly played
notes, so they may be more difficult to control. Choose the curve that is
most appropriate for your playing dynamics or for the effect you want to
obtain.
