Tone Characteristic Waveform
zTone Setting
Specifies which of the preset tones should be used as the original tone.
zResonance
Resonance enhances the harmonic components in the vicinity of the cutoff frequency, which creates a distinctive sound. A larger resonance value enhances the sound as shown in the figure.
Volume Characteristic Parameters
These parameters control how the tone changes over time, from when the keyboard key is pressed until the tone decays. You can specify changes in volume and sound characteristics.
zAttack time
This is the rate or time it takes for the tone to reach its highest volume level. You can specify a fast rate, where the tone reaches its highest volume level immediately, a slow rate where it gradually rises, or something in between.
zRelease time
•With some tones, a large resonance value can cause distortion or noise during the attack part of the tone.
zCutoff Frequency
The cutoff frequency is a parameter for adjusting timbre by cutting any frequency that is higher than a specific frequency. A larger cutoff frequency produces a brighter (harder) timbre, while a smaller frequency produces a darker (softer) timbre.
Tone Pitch Parameters
zVibrato Type, Vibrato Delay, Vibrato Rate, Vibrato Depth
These parameters adjust the vibrato effect, which causes periodic changes in the tone.
zOctave Shift
This parameter controls the octave of all tones.
Tone Characteristic Setting Parameters
zLevel
This parameter controls the overall volume of the tone.
zTouch Sense
This parameter controls changes in volume and timbre in accordance with the relative amount of pressure applied to the keyboard keys. You can specify more volume for stronger pressure and less volume or a lighter pressure, or you can specify the same volume regardless of how much pressure is applied to the keys.
zReverb Send, Chorus Send, DSP Line , DSP Type, DSP Parameter
These parameters control the effects applied to tones.
