MIDI Trigger (MIDI TRG.): OFF, ON
When this parameter is turned ON, a KEY ON EVENT
message from an external MIDI keyboard can be used to
trigger the gate. A KEY ON EVENT message is transmitted
whenever a note on a MIDI keyboard is played.
NOTE:
This effect can also be triggered by the front-panel
TRIGGER key or a footswitch plugged into the rear-panel
TRIGGER jack.

PARAMETERS ACCESSED BY THE PARAM KEY
n 28. PITCH CHANGE 1
PITCH CHANGE 1 makes it possible to produce two
independently pitch-shifted output notes in addition to the
direct signal, so you can create three-part harmonies with a
single input note. Both pitch-shifted notes appear at the center
of the stereo sound field.
1st Pitch Shift (1 PITCH): -24 – +24
2nd Pitch Shift (2 PITCH): -24 – +24
Set the pitch of the first or second pitch-shifted note between
two octaves below (-24) and two octaves above (+24) the
input note.
1st Fine Tuning (1 FINE): -100 – +100
2nd Fine Tuning (2 FINE): -100 – +100
Permit fine tuning of the first or second pitch-shifted note in
1-cent steps.
1st Delay Time (1 DLY): 0.1 – 650.0 milliseconds
2nd Delay Time (2 DLY): 0.1 – 650.0 milliseconds
Determines the time delay between input of the original note
and output of the first or second pitch-shifted note.
1st Feedback Gain (1 F.B.): -99 – +99%
2nd Feedback Gain (2 F.B.): -99 – +99%
When this parameter is set to 0. only a single pitch-shifted
sound is produced after the DELAY time has elapsed. As the
value of this parameter is increased, however, more and more
delayed repeats are produced, each pitch-shifted up or down
from the previous repeat according to the setting of the PITCH
parameter.
1st Level (1 LEVEL): 0 – 100%
2nd Level (2 LEVEL): 0 – 100%
These parameters determine the levels of the first and second
pitch-shifted notes.
29. PITCH CHANGE 2
Like the PITCH CHANGE 1 program, PITCH CHANGE 2
produces 2 pitch-shifted notes in addition to the original input
note. In this program, however, the two pitch-shifted notes are
independently fed to the left and right channel outputs (the
direct sound is positioned at the center of the stereo sound
field) for a true stereo harmony effect.
Left Pitch Shift (L PITCH): -24 – +24
Right Pitch Shift (R PITCH): -24 – +24
Set the pitch of the left or right channel pitch-shifted note
between two octaves below (-24) and two octaves above (+24)
the input note.
Left Fine Tuning (L FINE): -100 – +100
Right Fine Tuning (R FINE): -100 – + 100
Permit fine tuning of the left or right channel pitch-shifted
note in 1-cent steps.
Left Delay Time (L DLY): 0.1 – 650.0 milliseconds
Right Delay Time (R DLY): 0.1 – 650.0 milliseconds
Determine the time delay between input of the original note
and output of the left or right channel pitch-shifted note.
