Pitch/Phase Mod. Pitch/phase modulation effects 16: St.Chorus (Stereo Chorus) This effect adds thickness and warmth to the sound by modu- lating the delay time of the input signal. You can add spread to the sound by offsetting the phase of the left and right LFOs from each other.
g: Feedback Sets the feedback amount of the chorus block. Increasing the feed- back will allow you to use the effect as a flanger. 18: MltTap ChoDly (Multitap Chorus/Delay) This effect has four chorus blocks with a different LFO phase. You can create a complex stereo image by setting each block’s delay time, depth, output level, and pan individually.
20: St.Flanger (Stereo Flanger This effect gives a significant swell and movement of pitch to the sound. It is more effective when applied to a sound with a lot of harmonics. This is a stereo flanger. You can add spread to the sound by offsetting the phase of the left and right LFOs from each other.
22: St.Env.Flanger (Stereo Envelope Flanger) This Flanger uses an envelope generator for modulation. You will obtain the same pattern of flanging each time you play. You can also control the Flanger directly using the modula- tion source. Stereo In - Stereo Out Left Flanger Feedback...
24: St.Rndm Phasr (Stereo Random Phaser) This is a stereo phaser. The effect uses a step-shape waveform and random LFO for modulation, creating a unique phasing effect.

Mod./P.Shift Other modulation and pitch shift effects 32: St.Tremolo (Stereo Tremolo) This effect modulates the volume level of the input signal. The effect is stereo, and offsetting the LFO of the left and right phases from each other produces a tremolo effect between left and right.
34: St.Auto Pan (Stereo Auto Pan) This Auto Pan effect pans sound between left and right. It is stereo, and shifting the left and right LFO phases from each other will simulate the sound of the left and right channels crossing over each other by turns, or chasing each other.
T Dep (Tremolo Depth) Sets the tremolo modulation depth (Source) Selects the modulation source for the tremolo modulation depth (Amount) Sets the modulation amount of the tremolo modulation depth W/D (Wet/Dly) Sets the balance between the effect and dry sounds (Source) Selects the modulation source of the effect balance (Amount)
37: Detune Using this effect, you can obtain a detune effect that offsets the pitch of the effect sound slightly from the pitch of the input signal. Compared to the chorus effect, a more natural sound thickness will be created. Wet: Mono In - Mono Out / Dry: Stereo In - Stereo Out Left Input Level...
39: PitchShft Mod (Pitch Shift Modulation) This effect modulates the detuned pitch shift amount using an LFO, adding a clear spread and width to the sound by pan- ning the effect sound and dry sound to the left and right. This is especially effective when the effect sound and dry sound output from stereo speakers are mixed.
When “(Sw)” = Mmnt (Moment), the speaker is rotating. It stops only when you press the pedal or operate the joystick. Rotation will occur when the value of the modulation source is less than 64, and will stop when the value is 64 or greater.
42: Auto Reverse This effect records the input signal and automatically plays it in reverse (the effect is similar to a tape reverse sound). Wet: Mono In - Mono Out / Dry: Stereo In - Stereo Out Left Auto Reverse Rec/Reverse Play Control Right...

8. Appendices Alternate Modulation Source (AMS) About Alternate Modulation Alternate Modulation can be specified for the following 55 alternate modulation destinations shown in the diagram below. (Pitch EG is common to OSC 1 and 2.) The AMS (Alternate Modulation Source) and amount can be selected independently to apply modulation to each of these destinations.
Alternate Modulation settings When you operate 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.
Page 222
• If you select the same controller for “AMS” and set the Filter A (Low Pass Filter) “Intensity (A AMS 1/2 Intensity)” parameter and Filter B (High Pass Filter) “Intensity (B AMS 1/2 Intensity)” parameter to different values, a single controller operation will simultaneously control the cutoff frequencies of the two filters.
Page 223
Amp LFO 1/2 Intensity (PROG 5.1–2b, 5.2) The amp modulation intensity of LFO 1/2 can be controlled by EG, keyboard tracking, controllers, or tempo etc. • If you select EG as the “AMS (LFO1/2 AMS),” the depth of the tremolo effect produced by LFO modulation will change in synchronization with the changes in EG level.
Dynamic Modulation Source You can control certain effect parameters using the joystick, REALTIME CONTROLS knobs, etc. “on the fly.” Controlling effects in this way is referred to as Dynamic Modulation. For example, you can use After Touch to speed up the LFO of the chorus and flanger, or you can use the joystick to acti- vate the wah effect.
Page 225
In Program mode and Sampling mode (if the EXB- SMPL option is installed), dynamic modulation of the insert effect and master effects is controlled on the glo- bal MIDI channel. (In Sampling mode, only the insert effect can be used.) In Combination mode and Sequencer mode, dynamic modulation of the insert effect and master effects are controlled on the MIDI channel that has been specified...
About the BPM/MIDI SYNC function BPM/MIDI SYNC can be used for most effects that have an LFO, such as 09:St. Wah/Auto Wah, and for some delay- type effects such as 49:L/C/R BPM Delay. You can apply modulation that is synchronized to the tempo, or specify the delay time in terms of a note value so that the effect will syn- chronize to the tempo of the arpeggiator or sequencer dur- ing a live performance even if you change the tempo.

MIDI applications About MIDI MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, and is a world-wide standard for exchanging various types of musical data between electronic musical instruments and computers. When MIDI cables are used to connect two or more MIDI devices, performance data can be exchanged between the devices, even if they were made by different manufacturers.
generator will be internally disconnected). When you play the keyboard of the TRITON Le, the musical data will be transmitted to the external MIDI sequencer or computer, and then echoed back to play the TRITON Le tone genera- tor. In other words, by turning Local Control OFF, you can prevent notes from being sounded in duplicate, as would otherwise occur if a note were sounded by the TRITON Le’s own keyboard and again by the data that was echoed-back.

Page 241
Using the joystick to apply modulation Modulation 1 depth (CC#01) [Bn, 01, vv] When you move the TRITON Le’s joystick in the +Y direc- tion (away from yourself), Modulation 1 Depth messages will be transmitted. When these messages are received, the same effect will be applied as when the TRITON Le’s joy- stick is operated.
Page 242
Damper pedal (CC#64) [Bn, 40, vv] This message is transmitted when you operate a damper pedal (separately sold Korg DS-1H etc.) connected to the DAMPER jack, and the damper effect will be turned on/off. If the DS-1H is used, a half-damper effect can be applied.
Page 243
Sostenuto (CC#66) [Bn, 42, vv] If the above CC# is assigned as the function of the ASSIGN- ABLE SWITCH, operating the switch will transmit this mes- sage with vv=127 [7F] for ON, and vv=0 [00] for OFF, and the sostenuto effect will be turned on/off. When this mes- sage is received, the result will be the same as when the con- troller is operated (OFF for vv=63 [3F] or below, and ON for vv=64 [40] or above).

About standard MIDI files Standard MIDI files (SMF) make it possible for different computer programs or musical instruments made by differ- ent manufacturers to exchange time-based MIDI data. Each standard MIDI file contains one song. This instrument sup- ports format 0 (type 0) in which all of the MIDI data is com- bined into one track, and format 1 (type 1) in which the data is separated by track.
Various messages Are you sure? Meaning: This message asks you to confirm execution. To execute press the [F8] (“OK”) key. To cancel, press the [F7] (“Cancel”) key. Can’t calibrate Meaning: Calibration could not be performed correctly. Action: Try again. Can’t open pattern Meaning: When you finished recording or editing, it was not possible to allocate enough memory to open the pattern that was Put into the track.
