Chapter 4 Creating Patches
other Tone to be connected in the simple order of WG/TVF/
TVA.
Booster (Booster Gain)
Range: 0/+6/+12/+18
If the “Type” parameter has been set to 3 or 4, you can set the
Booster strength. The Booster amplifies the incoming signal,
causing it to distort. This creates an effect similar to the
distortion often used on an electric guitar.
K. Range (Patch Key Range)
These parameters can be set only for Four-Tone Patches.
* When using Multi-partial Patches, this setting page doesn’t
appear.

L.F (TMT Keyboard Fade Width Lower)
Range: 0–127
Determines what will happen to the Tone’s level when a note
that’s lower than the Tone’s specified keyboard range is
played. Higher settings produce a more gradual change in
volume. If you don’t want the Tone to sound at all when a
note below the keyboard range is played, set this parameter
to 0.

K.L (TMT Keyboard Range Lower)
Range: C -1– UPPER
Specifies the lowest note that will cause the Tone to sound.
K.U (TMT Keyboard Range Upper)
Range: LOWER – G9
Specifies the highest note that will cause the Tone to sound.
* It is not possible to set the Lower value higher than the Upper
value, or the Upper value below the Lower value. If you
attempt to do so, the two values will change simultaneously.
What is a Ring Modulator?
A Ring Modulator mathematically multiplies two Tones,
creating a new sound that includes inharmonic
overtones that were not present in either of the two
original Tones.
Since the difference in pitch between the two Tones
changes the overtone structure, an un-pitched “metallic”
sound often results. Ring modulation is therefore
especially suitable for creating bells and other metallic
sounds.
