Rhythm Edit
WMT (Wave Mix Table)
With the MC-909, up to four stereo Waves can be assigned to a single Rhythm Tone. You can select the way tones sound according to the force
with which the keys are played, thus allowing you to create Rhythm Tones featuring great expressive power. This function is called
WMT (Wave
Mix Table) .
Genaral
Various other parameters are provided here.
Parameter Value Description
Velocity Control
(WMT Velocity Con-
trol) OFF, ON,
RANDOM Specifies whether velocity data will be used (ON) or ignored (OFF)
If you specify RANDOM, the waves will sound randomly, regardless of velocity data.
Velo Fade Lower
(WMT Velocity Fade
Width Lower) 0–127 Rate of volume change when you play less strongly than the lower limit of the velocity range
Greater settings for this value will cause the volume to decrease more gradually. Set this to 0 if you
want notes outside the velocity range to not sound at all.
Velo Range Lower
(WMT Velocity
Range Lower) 1–Upper Lower limit of velocities that will sound the tone
Set this parameter if you want to use velocity to switch between waves.
Velo Range Upper
(WMT Velocity
Range Upper) Lower–127 Upper limit of velocities that will sound the tone
Set this parameter if you want to use velocity to switch between waves.
* It is not possible to set Lower to a greater value than Upper, nor Upper to a lesser value than Lower.
Velo Fade Upper
(WMT Velocity Fade
Width Upper) 0–127 Rate of volume change when you play more strongly than the upper limit of the velocity range
Greater settings for this value will cause the volume to decrease more gradually. Set this to 0 if you
want notes outside the velocity range to not sound at all.
Parameter Value Description
Rhythm Level
(Rhythm Set Level) 0–127 Overall volume of the Rhythm Set
Assign Type MULTI,
SINGLE This setting determines whether a Rhythm Tone note that is playing is stopped when the same note is
played again (SINGLE), or whether it will continue to play, layered with the new note.
Mute Group OFF, 1–31 The Mute Group function allows you to designate two or more Rhythm Tones that are not allowed to
sound simultaneously. For example, in a real-world acoustic drum set, an open hi-hat and a closed hi-
hat sound will never occur simultaneously, since they’re produced by the same instrument. To simulate
this behavior on the MC-909, you can set the open and closed hi-hat Rhythm Tones to the same Mute
Group. You can have up to 31 Mute Groups per Rhythm Set. If you do not want a Rhythm Tone to use
a Mute Group, turn the feature off.
Tone Env Mode
(Rhythm Tone
Envelope Mode) NSUS, SUST When a loop-type waveform is selected, it will normally continue to sound as long as a key is pressed.
If you want a note to decay naturally even when the key remains pressed, set this to “NSUS.”
* If a one-shot type Wave is selected, it will not sustain even if this parameter is set to “SUST.”
Tone Pitch Bend
Range
(Rhythm Tone Pitch
Bend Range) 0–48 Specifies the amount of pitch change that will occur when you move the Pitch Bend Lever.
Tone Reverb Send
Level
(Rhythm Tone Re-
verb Send Level) 0–127 Specifies the depth of reverb applied to each Rhythm Tone
Set this to 0 if you don’t want to apply reverb.
Tone Output Asgn
(Rhythm Tone
Output Assign) DRY, MFX1,
MFX2,
COMP,
DIR1, DIR2 Specifiests the original sound of each Rhythm Tone will be output
DRY: Output to MIX OUTPUT jacks without passing through effects
MFX1 (2): Output through multi-effects 1 (or 2)
COMP: Output through the compressor
DIR1 (2): Output to the DIRECT 1 (or DIRECT 2) jacks without passing through effects
