With rhythm tones, sounds are created by combining up

to four Waves (eight for stereo).

Rhythm Wave

Wave No. L (Mono) (Wave Number L (Mono))
Wave No. R (Wave Number R)

This selects the Waves comprising the rhythm tone. Along

with the Wave number, the Wave name will appear at the

lower part of the display.

When in monaural mode, only the left side (L) is specified.

When in stereo, the right side (R) is also specified.

Value:

----,

1–1240

* When using a multisample in stereo, you must specify the

same number for L and R.

Wave Gain

Sets the gain (amplification) of the waveform. The value

changes in 6 dB (decibel) steps—an increase of 6 dB doubles

the waveform’s gain.

Value:

-6, 0, +6, +12

FXM Switch

This sets whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF).

Value:

OFF,

ON

FXM Color

Specifies how FXM will perform frequency modulation.

Higher settings result in a grainier sound, while lower

settings result in a more metallic sound.

Value:

1–4

FXM Depth

Specifies the depth of the modulation produced by FXM.

Value:

0–16

Wave Coarse Tune

Adjusts the pitch of the waveform’s sound up or down in

semitone steps (+/-4 octaves).

Value:

-48–

+48

The Coarse Tune of the entire rhythm tone is set by the

Tone Coarse parameter (p. 129).

Wave Fine Tune

Adjusts the pitch of the waveform’s sound up or down in 1-

cent steps (+/-50 cents).

Value:

-50–

+50

One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.

The Fine Tune of the entire rhythm tone is set by the

Tone Fine Tune parameter (p. 129).

Tips on Creating a Rhythm Tone

The Waves for the bass drum, snare, hi-hat, toms, and

other percussion instruments are each assigned to one

rhythm tone. When adding 3D effects to the sound,

make the Pan settings for each rhythm tone individually.

FXM

FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation) uses a specified

waveform to apply frequency modulation to the

currently selected waveform, creating complex

overtones. This is useful for creating dramatic sounds or

sound effects.
