Rhythm Edit
Pitch
These parameters specify the pitch of the waveform.
Pitch Env (Pitch Envelope)
These parameters specify the depth of the pitch envelope (the way in which pitch will change over time), and the shape of the envelope itself.
Parameter Value Description
Coarse Tune
(Rhythm Tone
Coarse Tune) 0 (C-1)–127
(G9) Basic pitch at which the Rhythm tone will play
Fine Tune
(Rhythm Tone Fine
Tune) -50– +50 Pitch of the Rhythm tone
Adjusts the pitch in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) over a range of 1/2 semitone upward or
downward.
Random Pitch
(Random pitch
depth) 0–1200 This specifies the width of random pitch deviation that will occur each time a key is pressed. If you don’t
want random pitch changes, set it to 0. The parameter can be adjusted in units of 1 cent (1/100th of a
semitone).
Wave Coarse Tune -48– +48 Pitch of the Wave
Adjusts the pitch in semitone steps over a range of +/-4 octaves.
Wave Fine Tune -50– +50 Pitch of the Wave
Adjusts the pitch in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) over a range of 1/2 semitone upward or
downward.
Parameter Value Description
P-Env Depth -12– +12 Pitch envelope depth
Increasing this value will produce greater change. Negative (-) values will invert the change pro-
duced by the envelope.
P-Env V-Sens
(Pitch Envelope Ve-
locity Sensitivity) -63– +63 Amount of pitch change that will occur in response to your pad playing dynamics.
Increasing this value will produce a greater difference in pitch between softly and strongly played
notes. Negative (-) values will produce the opposite result.
P-Env T1 V-Sens
(Pitch Envelope
Time 1
Velocity Sensitivity) -63– +63 Amount by which T1 (time) of the pitch envelope will change in response to the speed (velocity) at
which you press a pad.
Increasing this value will produce a greater difference between softly and strongly played notes. Set
this to a positive (+) value if you want to speed up the T1 time, or to a negative (-) value to slow it
down.
P-Env T4 V-Sens
(Pitch Envelope
Time 4
Velocity Sensitivity) -63– +63 Amount by which T4 (time) of the pitch envelope will change in response to the speed at which you
release a pad (key-off velocity)
Increasing this value will produce a greater difference between quickly released and slowly released
notes. Set this to a positive (+) value if you want to speed up the T4 time, or to a negative (-) value to
slow it down.
P-Env Time1–4 0–127 Pitch envelope times (T1–T4)
Increasing this value will lengthen the time until the next pitch level is reached (for example, T2 is the
time over which the pitch will change from L1 to L2).
* Realtime modify knob [A] adjusts Time 1, and knob [D] adjusts Time 3.
P-Env Level0–4 -63– +63 Pitch envelope levels (L0–L4)
These parameters specify the amount by which the pitch will change from the basic pitch (specified
by Coarse Tune and Fine Tune) at each point of the envelope. Positive (+) values will raise the pitch
above the basic pitch, and negative (-) values will lower it.
