Zone Velocity Offset

This function works in conjunction with the Zone Velocity Range feature and
adds a programmable offset value to the velocity value applied to the preset. The
velocity offset is variable for each zone from -126 to +126.
Suppose that a preset is assigned a velocity range of 000-026 (see previous
screen). If the preset was programmed with velocity to volume or tone, the low
velocity range will make the preset soft and muted. By offsetting the velocity
value to the preset by +100, the preset will receive velocity values of 100-126
instead of 000-026 and the preset will sound normal again.

Zone Transpose

The key of each zone can be transposed in half-step intervals. The range of the
transpose function is ±36 semitones (three octaves up or down). Transpose
shifts the relative position of the keyboard in relation to middle C rather than
actually changing the tuning of the zone.

Zone Pitch Tune

The tuning of each zone can be adjusted in coarse and fine increments. The
coarse tuning adjustment tunes the zone in semitone increments. This is
different from the transpose function in that the sounds are actually retuned,
rather than having the relative key position changed. This control can produce
radical timbre shifts in the sampled sounds. The range of the coarse tuning
control is ±36 semitones (±3 octaves). The fine tuning control changes the
pitch in 1/64 semitone increments (approx. 1.56 cents). The fine tuning range is
±1 semitone.
