Parameter

Value

Explanation

Rate

0.05–10.00

[Hz]

Rate at which the 16-step sequence will cycle

Rate Note

Note

(P.167)

Attack

0–127

Speed at which the level changes between steps

In Sync Sw

OFF, ON

Specifies whether an input note will cause the sequence to resume from the first step of the
sequence (ON) or not (OFF)

InSyncThres

0–127

Volume at which an input note will be detected

Mode

LEGATO,

SLASH

Sets the manner in which the volume changes as one step progresses to the next.

LEGATO: The change in volume from one step’s level to the next remains unaltered. If the level of a

following step is the same as the one preceding it, there is no change in volume.

SLASH: The level is momentarily set to 0 before progressing to the level of the next step.
This change in volume occurs even if the level of the following step is the same as the preceding

step.

Shuffle

0–127

Timing of volume changes in levels for even-numbered steps (step 2, step 4, step 6...).

The higher the value, the later the beat progresses.

Level

0–127

Output Level

Rotary

This simulates a classic rotary speaker of the past.

Since the operation of the high-frequency and low-frequency rotors can be specified independently, the distinctive modulation

can be reproduced realistically. This is most effective on organ patches.

Parameter

Value

Explanation

Speed

SLOW,

FAST

Simultaneously switch the rotational speed of the low frequency rotor and high frequency rotor.

SLOW: Slows down the rotation to the Slow Rate.
FAST: Speeds up the rotation to the Fast Rate.

Wf Slow

0.05–10.00

[Hz]

Slow speed (SLOW) of the low frequency rotor

Wf Fast

0.05–10.00

[Hz]

Fast speed (FAST) of the low frequency rotor

Wf Accel

0–15

Adjusts the time it takes the low frequency rotor to reach the newly selected speed when switching

from fast to slow (or slow to fast) speed. Lower values will require longer times.

Wf Level

0–127

Volume of the low frequency rotor

Tw Slow

0.05–10.00

[Hz]

Settings of the high frequency rotor

The parameters are the same as for the low frequency rotor.

Tw Fast

0.05–10.00

[Hz]

Tw Accel

0–15

Tw Level

0–127

Separation

0–127

Spatial dispersion of the sound

Level

0–127

Output Level
