Each multisample has an upper limit, and may not pro- duce sound when played above that limit.

S.Ofs (High Start Offset)

[Off, On]

This specifies the point at which the multisample will begin sounding. For some multisamples this parameter will have no effect.

On (checked): The sound will start from the start offset location that is pre-determined for each multisample. However when a RAM bank is selected, this will depend on the selected multisample. If you select a multisample that includes one of the following types of sample, checking this item will cause playback to start from the Loop Start Address.

A sample that was recorded (sampled) in Sampling mode (if the separately sold EXB-SMPL option is installed)

A sample whose Loop Start Address was edited in Sampling mode (if the EXB-SMPL option is installed) after the sample was loaded in Media mode

A sample whose Loop Start Address was specified automatically when it was loaded as an AKAI, AIFF, or WAVE file in Media mode

Off (unchecked): The sound will start from the beginning of the multisample waveform.

Rev (High Reverse)

[Off, On]

The multisample will be played in reverse. In the case of ROM multisamples that were originally specified to loop, or in the case of RAM multisamples that were set to loop in Sampling mode (if the EXB-SMPL option is installed), the multisample will be played back in “one-shot” reverse mode. If the multisample was originally set to reverse, it will playback without change.

On (checked): The multisample will playback in reverse.

Off (unchecked): The multisample will playback normally.

Level (High Level)

[000...127]

Specifies the level of the multisample.

Depending on the multisample, high settings of this parameter may cause the sound to distort when a chord is played. If this occurs, lower the level.

Low:

Specifies the OSC1 Low multisample.

The Low multisample will sound when the velocity is less than the “Velocity SW L→ H” (2.1–2a) setting.

Low MS Bank

[ROM, RAM]

Low Multisample

[000...424, 000...999]

S.Ofs (Low Start Offset)

[Off, On]

Rev (Low Reverse)

[Off, On]

Level (Low Level)

[000...127]

Refer to the corresponding item in “High.”

2.1–2c: Octave, Transpose, Tune, Delay

Octave

[–2[32’], –1[16’], +0[8’], +1[4’]]

Adjusts the pitch in octave units. The normal octave of the multisample is 8' (feet).

Transpose

[–12…+12]

Adjusts the pitch in semitone steps over a range of ±1 octave.

Tune

[–1200…+1200]

Adjusts the pitch of the sample in one-cent steps (a semitone is 100 cents) over a range of ±1 octave.

Delay

[0ms…5000ms, KeyOff]

Specifies a delay time from note-on until the note will sound.

With a setting of KeyOff, the sound will begin when note- off occurs. This is used to create sounds such as the “click” that is heard when a harpsichord note is released. In this case, set the “Amp1 EG”, “Amp2 EG” (5.1–3a, 5.2–3) “S (Sustain Level)” parameter to 0.

2.1–2d: OSC1 Drum Kit

Drum Kit

24(GM)...32(GM)]

00

(INT)–15 (INT)

 

 

Preload drum kits.

 

 

 

 

16

(User)–23 (User)

 

for user drum kits

 

 

 

 

 

24

(GM)–32 (GM)

 

 

ROM preset drum kits compatible with GM2.

 

 

 

 

Octave

 

 

[–2[32’], –1[16’], +0[8’], +1[4’]]

Adjusts the pitch in octave units. When using a drum kit, set the Octave to 8'.

When editing a drum program, you must set this parameter to 8'. With other settings, the sounds of the drum kit will be assigned to the wrong notes of the key- board.

Transpose

[–12…+12]

This adjusts the location of the instruments in the selected drum kit. Unless you need to change this, leave it at 0.

Tune

[–1200…+1200]

This adjusts the pitch in one-cent units.

The pitch of each drum kit can be adjusted in GLOBAL 5.1: DKit.

Delay[0ms…5000ms, KeyOff]

This specifies a delay time from note-on until the sound will begin.

With a setting of KeyOff, the sound will begin when note- off occurs. In this case, set the “Amp1 EG” parameter “S (Sustain Level)” (5.1–3a) to 0.

2.1–2e. UTILITY

“Write Program” (1.1–1c), “Copy Oscillator,” “Swap Oscillator” (2.1–1d)

For details on how to select the desired utility function, refer to “PROG 1.1–1c: UTILITY.”
