6. Global mode
In Global mode you can make settings that affect the entire
instrument, such as master tuning, MIDI, and memory pro-
tect.
You can also edit user scales, drum kit setups, and user
arpeggio patterns.
If you want the settings you make in Global mode to be
backed up when the power is turned off, you must
write them into memory. To write your settings, use the
page menu commands “Write Global Setting,” “Write
Drum Kits,” or “Write Arpeggio Patterns.”
The SEQUENCER [REC/WRITE] key can also be used
to access “Update Global Setting,” “Update Drum
Kits,” and “Update Arpeggio Patterns.” Simulta-
neously, the edited content will be written.
0–1: Basic
0–1a: Basic
Master Tune
[–50cent (427.47Hz)…+50cent (452.89Hz)]
This adjusts the overall tuning of the entire TRITON STU-
DIO in one-cent units (semitone = 100 cents) over a range of
±50
cents. With a setting of 0, the frequency of A4 will be 440
Hz.
The A4 pitch given here is when Equal Temperament is
selected as the scale. If a different scale is selected, A4
may not be 440 Hz.
Key Transpose [–12…+12]
This adjusts the pitch in semitone steps over a ±1 octave
range.
This setting is applied at the location (PreMIDI or Post-
MIDI
) specified by “Convert Position” (1–1a).
If “Convert Position” is set to PreMIDI, the note num-
bers transmitted from the TRITON STUDIO will be
affected by this setting.
“Master Tune” can be controlled by the MIDI universal
system exclusive message Master Fine Tuning (F0, 7F,
nn, 04, 03, vv, mm, F7: nn=MIDI channel, vv/mm=
value).
“Key Transpose” can be controlled by the MIDI univer-
sal system exclusive message Master Coarse Tuning
(F0, 7F, nn, 04, 04, vv, mm, F7: nn=MIDI channel, vv/
mm=value).
These messages are received on the global MIDI chan-
nel
specified by “MIDI Channel” (1–1a).
In Program, Combination, Sequencer, and Song Play
modes, MIDI RPN messages can be received to control
the tuning and transposition of the program or timbre
(Combination mode) or track (Sequencer/Song Play
modes). Incoming MIDI RPN Fine Tune messages will
make relative adjustments to the tuning specified by
the “Master Tune” setting.
MIDI RPN Coarse Tune messages will make relative
adjustments to the pitch specified by the “Key Trans-
pose” setting. In Program mode these messages will be
received on the global MIDI channel specified by
“MIDI Channel” (1–1a), and in other modes they will
be received on the MIDI channel specified for each tim-
bre or track. (

Velocity Curve [1…8]
This specifies the way in which the volume and/or tone will
change in response to variations in keyboard playing
dynamics (velocity).
When “Convert Position” (1–1a) is PreMIDI, variations in
keyboard playing dynamics will affect the velocity effect
and the transmitted velocity data as shown in the left-hand
diagram below. Incoming data will automatically use the
velocity curve number 4 shown in the right-hand diagram.
With a setting of PostMIDI, variations in keyboard playing
dynamics (and in the velocity of incoming data) will
respond as shown in the right-hand diagram below. If you
are playing TRITON STUDIO’s tone generator from an
external keyboard or sequencer, and the overall sound is too
bright or too dark, you can set the “Convert Position”
parameter to PostMIDI and select the appropriate velocity
curve here. For the transmitted data, the velocity curve
number 4 shown in the left-hand diagram will automatically
be selected.
1, 2, 3: An effect will be obtained for strongly-played notes
4 (Normal): The normal curve
5, 6: An effect will be obtained even if you do not play very
strongly
7:
A certain amount of effect will be obtained even for softly-
played notes
8:
This curve produces the most regular effect. This setting is
suitable when you do not need velocity sensitivity, or when
