response to your playing strength (velocity).
Depth:
Determines the amount by which received velocities are adjusted for the actual veloc-
ity effect.
Right Octave
Transposes the pitch in units of one octave when the Voice is used for the instrument’s right part.
Left Octave
Transposes the pitch in units of one octave when the Voice is used for the instrument’s left part.
Mono/Poly *
Determines whether the edited Voice is played monophonically or polyphonically
Portamento Time *
Sets the portamento time (pitch transition time) when the edited Voice is set to Mono above.
NOTE
The Portamento Time determines the pitch transition time. Portamento is a function that creates a
smooth transition in pitch from the first note played on the keyboard to the next.
