JS X
This is the horizontal movement of the main joystick. It also
receives MIDI Pitchbend.
JS+Y: CC#01
This is the vertical movement of the main joystick, upwards
from the center. It also receives MIDI CC#01 (mod wheel).
JS–Y: CC#02
This is the vertical movement of the main joystick, down‐
wards from the center. It also receives MIDI CC#02 (breath
controller).
JS +Y & AT/2 (Joy Stick +Y & After Touch/2)
The effect will be controlled by the joystick +Y (Vertical
upward) and by aftertouch. In this case, the effect of after‐
touch will be only half of the specified intensity.
JS –Y & AT/2 (Joy Stick –Y & After Touch/2)
The effect will be controlled by the joystick –Y (Vertical
downward) and by aftertouch. In this case, the effect of
aftertouch will be only half of the specified intensity.
Pedal: CC#04 (Foot Pedal: CC#04)
If you want to use the assignable foot pedal as an AMS, set
the Controllers "Foot Pedal Function (SW)" (page 74) to
Foot Pedal ( "Foot Pedal Assign" on page 129)).
This lets you use a foot pedal connected to DAMPER/
PEDAL/SW1 or PEDAL/SW2 to control parameters.
Damper: #64
This is the Damper pedal, also sometimes called the sustain
pedal. It corresponds to MIDI CC#64.
When using Korg's optional half‐damper pedal, the DS‐1H,
this AMS source is continuous–not just on/off.
Portamento SW: #65
This is the MIDI portamento switch (CC#65), which also
enables and disables portamento.
Sostenuto: #66
This is the MIDI sostenuto pedal (CC#66).
Soft: CC#67
This is the MIDI oft pedal (CC#67).
SW 1: CC#80 (SW 1 Modulation: CC#80)
MIDI control change (CC#80)
SW 2: CC#81 (SW 2 Modulation: CC#81)
MIDI control change (CC#81)
Foot SW: #82 (Foot SW: CC#82)
If you want to use an assignable foot switch as an AMS, set
the DAMPER/PEDAL/SW1 or PEDAL/SW2 jackʹs "Foot
Switch Function (SW)" (page 74) to Foot Switch ( "Foot
Switch Assign" on page 128).
This lets you use a foot switch connected to DAMPER/
PEDAL/SW1 or PEDAL/SW2 to control parameters.
Tempo
This lets you use the system tempo as a modulation source.
120 is the center, for a value of 0; 60BPM is –99, and 240BPM
is +99.
Note that this is different from actually syncing to tempo;
for that purpose, use the dedicated synchronization func‐
tions for the LFOs, effects, etc.

Gate1
Gate1+Damper
Gate 1 is triggered by a new note after all notes have been
released, such as at the beginning of a phrase. Gate
1+Damper is similar, except that it is triggered by a new
note‐on after all notes and the damper are released.
You can use this to reset the Common LFO. For instance, to
create an effect similar to the per‐voice LFO and Step
Sequencer's Key Sync Off setting, use Gate 1 + Damper as
the reset source.
Gate2
Gate2+Damper
Gate 2 is similar to Gate 1, but it triggers with every new
note‐on, Even in the middle of a legato phrase.
Gate2+Damper includes the damper pedal in the equation,
as shown in the diagram below.
When used as a reset controller for Common LFO, Gate2
and Gate2+Damper will have the same effect.

Alternate Modulation settings
When you use an AMS (Alternate Modulation Source), the
modulation destination will be affected as shown in the
table below.
By using alternate modulation, you can create complex sys‐
tems of modulation in which EG, LFO, keyboard tracks, and
controllers work together.
• You can apply complex change to an LFO or EG, for
example by using the pitch/filter/amp EG to control the
frequency or intensity of an LFO that modulates the
pitch/filter/amp, or by using LFO2 to control the
frequency of LFO1.
• The tone, EG, and LFO etc. can be controlled not only by
key velocity or the joystick, but also from a knob, or
pedal etc.
• Panning can be controlled in realtime from a controller,
EG, or LFO etc.
• You can use the filter EG to control pitch or volume at the
same time that it controls the filter.
• Controllers etc. can be used to control EG levels or times.
This lets you shape the EG in realtime.
• Filter/amp keyboard tracking or note number can be
used to control the EG or LFO according to the keyboard
pitch that is played.
• Pitch, tone, EG or LFO can be controlled by the tempo.
