MOTIF-RACK XS Owner's Manual
Determines the minimum and maximum values of the velocity range within which each Element will
respond. Each Element will only sound for Note On messages within the specified velocity range
received. If you specify the maximum value first and the minimum value second, for example "93 to
34," then the velocity range covered will be "1 to 34
Settings: 1 – 127
Determines the lowest and highest notes of a keyboard range for each Element. The selected
Element will sound only when Note On messages within this range are received.
Settings: C -2 – G8
Determines the pitch of each Element in semitones.
Settings: -48semi – +0semi – +48semi
Determines the pitch of each Element in cents.
Settings: -64 cent – +0 cent – +63 cent
Determines how the pitch of the Element responds to velocity. Positive settings will cause the pitch
to rise the more strongly you play an external keyboard and negative settings will cause it to fall. A
setting of 0 results in no change in pitch. Negative settings will cause the pitch to rise the more softly
you play.
Settings: -64 – +0 – +63
Determines the degree to which the notes (specifically, their position or octave range) affect the
pitch in fine tuning (set above) of the selected Element, assuming C3 as the basic pitch. A positive
setting will cause the pitch of lower notes to change lower and that of higher notes to change higher.
Negative values will have the opposite effect.
Settings: -64 – +0 – +63
This lets you randomly vary the pitch of the Element for each time a Note On message is received.
The higher the value, the greater the pitch variation. A value of "0" results in no pitch change.
Settings: 0 – 127
Determines the central note number for Pitch Key Follow. The note number set here is the same
pitch as normal regardless of the Pitch Key Follow setting.
Settings: C -2 – G8
Determines the sensitivity of the Key Follow effect
(the pitch interval of adjacent notes), assuming
the pitch of the "Pitch Key Follow Center Key" as
standard. At +100% (the normal setting), adjacent
notes are pitched one semitone (100 cents) apart.
At 0%, all notes are the same pitch specified as
the Center Key. For negative values, the settings
are reversed.
Settings: -200% – +0% – +200%
n
This parameter is useful for creating alternate
tunings, or for use with sounds that do not need to be
spaced in semitones, such as pitched drum sounds
in a Normal Voice.
Determines the Time settings for Pitch EG. The
Time parameters let you set the time between the
adjoining points of the Level parameters below. A
higher value results in a longer time until reaching
the next level.
Settings: 0 – 127
Hold Time
Determines the time between the moment a Note On
message is received and the moment the envelope starts to
rise.
Attack Time
Determines the speed of attack from the initial pitch (Hold
Level) to the normal pitch (Attack Level) of the Voice after the
hold time has elapsed.
Decay 1 Time
Determines how fast the envelope falls from the normal pitch
(Attack Level) of the Voice to the pitch specified as the Decay 1 Level.
Decay 2 Time
Determines how fast the envelope falls from the pitch specified as the Decay 1 Level to the pitch specified as the Decay 2
Level.
Release Time
Determines how fast the envelope falls to the pitch specified as the Release Level when a Note Off message is received.
