Settings for the entire TRITON STUDIO

(Global settings)

In Global mode you can make settings that affect the entire TRITON STUDIO, such as master tune, key trans- pose, effect global switch, global MIDI channel, and sys- tem clock. In this mode you can also make settings for the damper pedal, assignable foot switch/pedal, and edit the program/combination category names. You can also cre- ate user drum kits (☞p.128) and user arpeggio patterns (☞p.134).

The edits you perform in Global mode will be pre- served until the power is turned off, but will not be preserved after the power is turned off. Three types of data are handled in Global mode: user drum kit settings (Global P5), user arpeggio pattern settings (Global P6), and all other global settings (Global P0– P4). Each of these can be written into their respective memory area. This data can also be saved to various types of media in Disk mode. (☞p.58, 59)

Global mode does not provide a “Compare” function that lets you return to the state of the data before it was edited.

Tuning to another instrument/ Transposing

When you play the TRITON STUDIO together with other instruments, or along with music on a CD or tape, you may need to adjust the tuning so that the pitch matches. To adjust the tuning, use Global P0: Basic Setup, Basic page “Master Tune.” The tuning can be adjusted in a range of –50 – +50 cents (one semitone is 100 cents).

You can also transpose by changing the pitch in semitone steps. To transpose the pitch of the entire TRITON STU- DIO, use Global P0: Basic Setup, Basic page “Key Trans- pose.” The pitch can be transposed over a range of ±1 octave.

Here we will explain how to adjust the tuning and trans- position of the entire TRITON STUDIO.

1Press the [GLOBAL] key to enter Global mode.

2Press the [EXIT] key.

3Select the Basic tab.

4To adjust the tuning, select “Master Tune.” to adjust the transposition, select “Key Transpose.”

5Use the VALUE controllers to adjust the setting.

You can use numeric keys [0]–[9] to enter a value and press the [ENTER] key. Alternatively, you can use the [VALUE] dial, the [VALUE] slider, or the [ ][ ] keys.

Adjusting the way in which veloc- ity or after touch will affect the volume or tone

You can adjust the way in which changes in velocity or after touch will affect the volume or tone. By changing this, you can (for example) make the volume of the notes more consistent even when they are played with varying velocities (dynamics). Each curve has its own character, so you can select the curve that is appropriate for your own playing dynamics, playing style, and the effect that you wish to obtain (☞PG p.135).

1Press the [GLOBAL] key to enter Global mode.

2Press the [EXIT] key.

3Select the Basic tab.

4To change the velocity curve, select “Velocity Curve” and specify the desired curve.

To change the after touch curve, select “After Touch Curve,” and specify the desired curve.

This setting will affect the operation of the entire TRI-

TON STUDIO.

Each program has parameters that allow you to adjust the effect of velocity (playing dynamics), and the change will depend on the settings of these parameters. These parameters can be individually set in detail in Program mode.

Bypassing the effects

Normally, effects are turned on/off within each program, combination, or song, or in Sampling mode or Song Play mode. However if you want the entire TRITON STUDIO not to use its insert effects or master effects, you can bypass these effects.

This is set by the Effect Global SW parameter in the Global P0: Basic Setup, Basic page.

1Press the [GLOBAL] key to enter Global mode.

2Press the [EXIT] key.

3Select the Basic tab.

4To turn off insert effects 1–5, check the “IFX1–5 Off” check box.

To turn off master effect 1, check the “MFX1 Off” check box. To turn off master effect 2, check the “MFX2 Off” check box.
