PAGE 16 - R.T. CONTROLS: DAMPER

This page lets you enable/disable the Damper pedal for each of the Realtime (Keyboard) tracks.

Y

This enables/disables the front/rear movement of the Joystick (Y+: Modulation, and sometimes the sound parameter’s con- trol; Y-: Various controls, or non-active).

D (Damper)
On	When you press the Damper pedal and release
	the keys, the track’s sound is kept sustained.
Off	The Damper pedal is not active on any track
	set to this status.

E (Expression)

This parameters allows you to switch the Expression control on/off on each individual Realtime track. The Expression control is a relative level control, always subtracted from the Volume value of the track.

As an example, imagine you have a Piano sound assigned to Upper 1, and a Strings sound assigned to Upper 2. If you turn the Expression switch on on Upper 2, and off on Upper 1, you can use a pedal to control only the Strings’ volume, while the Piano remains unchanged.

To program a pedal or the Assignable Slider to act as an Expression control, see “Page 3 - Assignable Pedal/Foot- switch, Assignable Slider” on page 126. You can only assign this function to a volume-type pedal, not to a switch-type one. Assign the “KB Expression” option to the pedal or Assignable Slider, then press WRITE to save the setting into the Global.

PAGE 17 - R.T. CONTROLS: JOYSTICK

This page lets you enable/disable the Joystick for each of the Realtime (Keyboard) tracks.

Here is the edit procedure:

1.Use the VOLUME/VALUE (E-H) buttons to select a track.

2.Use the F3-F4 buttons to select the X or Y parameter for that track.

3.Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to change the status.

X

This enables/disables the left/right movement of the Joystick (Pitch Bend, and sometimes the sound parameter’s control).

PAGE 18 - R.T. CONTROLS: DYNAMIC RANGE

This page lets you program a dynamic range for each of the Realtime (Keyboard) tracks. This is useful to create a sound made of up to three dynamic layers, assigning each of the Upper tracks to a different dynamic range.

As an example, you may assign the El.Piano 1 Program to the Upper 1, and the El.Piano 2 Program to the Upper 2 track. Then, set Upper 1 to [L=0, H=80], and Upper 2 to [L=81, H=127]. The El.Piano 1 will play when playing softer, the El.Piano 2 when playing louder.

2.Use the F3-F4 buttons to select the L or H parameter for that track.

3.Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to change the parame- ter’s value.

L/H This parameter pair sets the Lower and Higher dynamic range for the track.

0	Lowest velocity value.
127	Highest velocity value.

PAGE 19 - R.T. CONTROLS: ENSEMBLE

This page lets you program the Ensemble function. This function harmonizes the right-hand played melody with the left-hand recognized chords.

RT Ctl:Ensemble

E:Dual		Up1:Normal
Dyn :- 2		Up2:Off
Note:+	0	Up3:Off

Up1…Up3

Right-hand (Upper) tracks.

Off	There is no harmonization on this track.
Normal	This track is included in the harmonization.
Mute	This track only plays the Ensemble notes, but
	not the original note.
