Parameter Value Description
At Note Mode CHROMATIC This is a chromatic scale. The pitch detected from the microphone is converted
to notes at semitone intervals.
DIATONIC This is a diatonic scale. The pitch detected from the microphone is converted
to notes at diatonic intervals. You can use the At Note Key parameter to specify
the key of the scale.
At Note Key C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G,
G#, A, A#, B Specifi es the key when At Note Mode is set to “DIATONIC” (diatonic scale).
Note Priority Specifi es the priority with which notes will sound when you hold down more
than one key when playing a monophonic sound.
Monophonic sounds are sounds that always produce only one note even
when you press multiple keys. It is not possible for the user to specify the
mono/poly setting. *
NORMAL If you play multiple keys with a monophonic sound, the last-played key will
sound.
TOP If you play multiple keys with a monophonic sound, the highest key will sound.
ENSEMBLE EDIT
Here you can make settings for the Ensemble part.
Parameter Value Description
Level 0–127 Specifi es the volume of the tone.
Pan L64–0–63R Specifi es the pan. “L64” is far left, “0” is center, and “63R” is far right.
Dry Send 0–127 Specifi es the volume of the part.
Ambience Send 0–127 Specifi es the level of the signal sent to the ambience.
Coarse Tune -12–+12 Adjusts the pitch up or down in semitone steps (+/-1 octave).
Fine Tune -50–+50 Adjusts the pitch up or down in 1-cent steps (+/-50 cents).
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
Octave -3–+3 Adjusts the pitch of the sound up or down in units of an octave (+/-3
octaves).
Tone -64–+63 Adjusts the tone.
Increasing the value will strengthen the highs, producing a clearer sound.
Decreasing the value will restrain the highs, producing a milder sound.
Attack -64–+63 Adjusts the attack.
Increasing the value will make the attack more gentle.
Decreasing the value will make the attack sharper.
Setting the attack to a negative value for a BRASS or STRINGS sound will
have no eff ect. The sharpest attack will be when the slider is set to zero. *
Release -64–+63 Adjusts the release.
Increasing the value will lengthen the time from note-off (releasing the key)
until the sound disappears.
Decreasing the value will shorten the time from note-off (releasing the key)
until the sound disappears.
Vibrato Rate -64–+63 Adjust the vibrato speed (the rate at which the sound is modulated). The
sound will be modulated more rapidly for higher settings, and more slowly
with lower settings.
Vibrato Depth -64–+63 Adjusts the depth of the vibrato eff ect (the depth at which the sound is
modulated). The sound will be modulated more greatly for higher settings,
and less with lower settings.
Vibrato Delay -64–+63 Adjusts the time delay until the vibrato (sound modulation) eff ect begins.
Higher settings will produce a longer delay time before vibrato begins,
while lower settings produce a shorter time.
Bend Range 0–12 Specifi es the degree of pitch change in semitones when the Pitch Bend
lever is all the way right/left. For example, if this parameter is set to “12,” the
pitch will rise one octave when the pitch bend lever is moved to the right-
most position.
For the SuperNATURAL brass (BRASS) sounds, setting the bend range
(RANGE) to 3 or higher will simulate the discontinuous pitch change
that is typical of brass instruments, instead of the normal smooth pitch
change. When you apply a downward bend, the sound will behave in the
manner distinctive of brass instruments, meaning that the volume will
also decrease.
