2 Note

Determines the range of notes for which Transpose is
applied. You can also set the Note directly from the
Keyboard, by holding down the [SF6] button and pressing
the desired key.

Settings: C -2 – G8

3 Transpose

Sets the transpose value. A setting of +12 transposes up
one octave, while a setting of -12 transposes down an
octave. A setting of 0 produces no change.

Settings: -127 – +127

This Job replaces all notes following the first note in the
specified range with pitch bend data, producing smooth
glides from note to note.

1 Track and range

Determines the Song track (01 – 16, all) and range
(Measure : Beat : Clock) over which the Job is applied.

2 Glide Time

Determines the time of the glide. Higher values produce a
longer and smooth glide between notes.

Settings: 000 – 100

3 PB (Pitch Bend) Range

The Pitch Bend Range value indicates the maximum range
of pitch controlled via the Pitch Bend event in semitones.
This parameter determines the Pitch Bend range for the
Voice assigned to the Mixing Part corresponding to the
selected track. Executing the Job replaces the note events
with the Pitch Bend events by following the Pitch Bend
range specified here.

Settings: 01 – 24

n If the interval between adjoining notes is greater than the Pitch

Bend range set here in the specified range, the corresponding
notes will not be converted by executing this Job. If such a
situation occurs, set the PB Range (

3) to the value more than

the interval. If there is a one octave interval, for example, in the
specified range, set the PB Range to a value of 12 or higher.

n Please note that the Song may not play back properly if you

set the PB Range (

3) to the value different from the one set via

the Voice Edit mode. In order that the Song plays back
properly, insert the MIDI event below to the corresponding
track in the Song Edit display (page 193).
RPN [000-000] xxx
(Enter the Pitch Bend value to xxx.)

This Job creates a series of repeated notes (like a drum
roll) in the specified range with the specified continuous
changes in clock step and velocity. This is ideal for
creating fast staccato rolls and special stuttering effects.
This Job also allows you to program crescendo or
decrescendo volume changes in the Roll data.

1 Track and range

Determines the Song track (01 – 16, all) and range
(Measure : Beat : Clock) over which the Job is applied.

2 Start Step
3 End Step

Determines the size of the step (i.e., the number of clocks)
between each note in the roll. The smaller the value, the
finer the roll. Both the starting and ending clock values can
be specified, making it easy to create rolls in which the
step size varies during the roll.

Settings: 015 – 999

n If you want to create a roll that goes from 64th – 32nd notes,

set the Start and End step values to around 30 – 60,
respectively.

4 Note

Determines the specific note (or instrument in Drum
Voices) for the roll effect. You can also set the note directly
from the Keyboard, by holding down the [SF6] button and
pressing the desired key.

Settings: C -2 – G8

5 Start Velocity
6 End Velocity

Determines the velocity of the notes in the roll. Both the
starting and ending velocity values can be specified,
making it easy to create rolls in which the velocity
increases or decreases. This lets you create rolls that
gradually increase or decrease in volume (crescendo/
decrescendo).

Settings: 001 – 127
