Parameter function

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LFO rate

0–120,

[SHIFT] + STEP [1]

Specifies the LFO speed. If a note value is selected, the

 

note value

 

LFO will synchronize to the tempo.

 

 

 

 

LFO waveform

TRI, SQR, SAW, S-H

[SHIFT] + STEP [2]

Selects the LFO waveform

 

 

 

 

OSC waveform

TRI, SAW, P10–P30,

[SHIFT] + STEP [3]

Selects the oscillator waveform

 

P1S–P3S, P1D–P3D

 

*1

 

 

 

 

OSC vibrato depth

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [4]

Specifies the depth of vibrato

 

 

 

 

Filter type

LP1, BP1, HP1, LP2,

[SHIFT] + STEP [5]

Selects the type of filter (Low Pass Filter, Band Pass Fil-

 

BP2, HP2

 

ter, High Pass Filter)

 

 

 

* LP1: slope = -12 dB, LP2: slope = -24 dB

 

 

 

 

Filter envelope attack time

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [6]

Specifies the time from when the keyboard pad is

 

 

 

pressed until the maximum filter change is reached

 

 

 

 

Filter envelope sustain level

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [7]

Specifies the cutoff frequency at which the filter stops

 

 

 

changing

 

 

 

 

Filter envelope release time

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [8]

Specifies the time from when the keyboard pad is re-

 

 

 

leased until the filter stops changing

 

 

 

 

Filter LFO depth

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [9]

Applies a wah effect

 

 

 

 

Amp envelope depth

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [10]

Adjusts the depth of the amp envelope

 

 

 

 

Amp envelope attack time

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [11]

Specifies the time from when the keyboard pad is

 

 

 

pressed until the maximum volume is reached

 

 

 

 

Amp envelope decay time

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [12]

Specifies the time from when the maximum volume is

 

 

 

reached until the sustain level is reached

 

 

 

 

Amp envelope sustain level

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [13]

Specifies the level at which the volume stops changing

 

 

 

 

Amp envelope release time

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [14]

Specifies the time from when the keyboard pad is re-

 

 

 

leased until the sound disappears

 

 

 

 

Amp LFO depth

0–127

[SHIFT] + STEP [15]

Applies tremolo

 

 

 

 

Effect type

OD1-2 (overdrive 1–2),

 

Specifies the type of effect

(when LEAD is selected)

DS1–2 (distortion 1–2),

 

 

 

PH1–4 (phaser 1–4),

 

 

 

SL1–2 (slicer 1–2),

[SHIFT] + STEP [16]

 

 

OFF (no effect)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Vintage mode

OFF, ON

 

Specifies whether the filter characteristics and parameter

(when BASS is selected)

 

 

ranges of a vintage synthesizer will be simulated

 

 

 

 

*1: For some tones, it is not possible to change the OSC waveform.
