Rotor Stop Transit (Rotor Stop Transition)

[0...99]

Adjusts the time over which the rotor rotation actually comes to a stop after you stop the rotation.

Rotor Strt Transit (Rotor Start Transition)

[0...99]

Adjusts the time over which the rotor reaches the speci- fied speed after it begins to rotate.

Group 7: Controller

Mod Wheel (Modulation Wheel)

[No Assign...ExLowLevl]

Select the parameter that will be controlled by the front panel modulation wheel.

If this is set to other than No Assign, Rtry FAST, or Wheel Brake, the result of moving the wheel will depend on the setting of the “Mod Wheel Range.”

No Assign: Nothing will be controlled.

Click Level: Control the “On Click Level” and “Off Click Level” parameters (Group 1).

Perc Level (Percussion Level): Control the “Perc Nrml Level” parameter (Group 3).

Perc Decay (Percussion Decay): Control the “Perc Fast

Decay” parameter (Group 3).

Rtry FAST (Rotary Fast/Slow): Control the front panel ROTARY [FAST] key. The modulation wheel will function as a switch, and will select Fast when the wheel is moved toward yourself, and Slow when moved away from yourself.

Rtry Speed (Rotary Speed): Control the “Horn Fast Speed,” “Horn Slow Speed,” “Rotary Fast Speed,” and “Rotary Slow Speed” parameters (Group 6).

Wheel Brake: Control the “Wheel Brake” parameter (Global mode Group 7). The modulation wheel will function as a switch, and will turn on the wheel brake effect when the modulation wheel is moved away from yourself, and will turn off the wheel brake effect when moved toward yourself.

ExLowrLevl (EX Lower Level): Control the “EX LOWER”

parameter (Group 2).

Mod Wheel Range (Modulation Wheel Range) [-99...+99]

When the “Mod Wheel” parameter is set to other than No Assign, Rtry FAST, or Wheel Brake, the range of the effect controlled by operating the modulation wheel can be adjusted from a maximum of 0 to a maximum of 99. When you move the modulation wheel fully toward yourself, the parameter being controlled will be at its own original setting.

When you move the modulation wheel fully away from yourself, the value you specify here will be added to the original value of the parameter being controlled. How- ever, the total value is limited to a range of 0 to 99.

If the “Perc Nrml Level” parameter is set to 50, the following Mod Wheel Range settings will allow the position of the modulation wheel to change the percus- sion level as follows.

+20: The percussion level will be 50 when the modulation wheel is fully toward yourself, and 70 when fully away from yourself.

-20: The percussion level will be 50 when the modulation wheel is fully toward yourself, and 30 when fully away from yourself.

If the “Perc Nrml Level” parameter is set to 99, the following Mod Wheel Range settings will allow the position of the modulation wheel to change the percus- sion level as follows.

+99: The percussion level will be 99 when the modulation wheel is fully toward yourself, and 99 when fully away from yourself (since the controllable range is 0–99).

-99: The percussion level will be 99 when the modulation wheel is fully toward yourself, and 0 when fully away from yourself.
