Key Zone Slope

Here you can specify the range of keys over which the original volume will be reached, starting at the top key and bottom key.

In the case of the above example, you could set the key zones so that a portion of timbres 1 and 2 overlaps (i.e., is layered) with timbre 3, and set “Top Slope” and “Bottom Slope” so that the sound changes gradually, instead of changing suddenly between B3 and C4.

Vel Zone page (Velocity zone settings)

Here you can make settings for velocity switching and velocity crossfading.

For each timbre, you can specify a range of velocities for which it will sound. The range of velocities for which a timbre will sound is called a Velocity Zone. By setting a velocity zone, you can set up a timbre which will be sounded only by notes played within a certain range of velocities, and not by notes played outside this Velocity Zone.

By combining timbres that have differing velocity zone settings, you can create velocity switched combinations.

The upper and lower limits of the velocity zone of each timbre are determined by the “Top Velocity” and “Bot- tom Velocity” respectively.

The following diagram shows an example of a velocity switched combination in velocity will switch between timbres 1 and 2 to play different programs. Such combina- tions are created by setting the velocity zone.

Timbre 1	Brass	127
		64	Velocity

Timbre 2	Strings	63	switch
		1

As an example, we will explain how to create a combina- tion like the one shown above.

1In the P0: Play, Program Select page or the P1: Edit- Program/Mixer, Prog page, use the “Program Select” area to select the program that will be used for each timbre 1 and 2.

Select a brass program for timbre 1. Select a strings program for timbre 2.

2In the MIDI Ch page of P2: Edit-Trk Param, set “Sta- tus” to INT for all the timbres that you wish to use, and set “MIDI Channel” to either Gch or to match the global MIDI channel (a “G” will be displayed after the channel number).

3In P4: Edit-Zone/Ctrl Vel Zone page, set the “Top Velocity” and “Bottom Velocity.”

Set timbre 1 to a “Top Velocity” of 127 and a “Bottom Velocity” of 64.

Set timbre 2 to a “Top Velocity” of 63 and a “Bottom Velocity” of 1.

Velocity Zone Slope

Here you can specify the range of values over which the original volume will be reached, starting from the top velocity and bottom velocity.

In the case of the above example, you could set the veloc- ity zones of the two timbres so that they partially overlap, and set “Top Slope” and “Bottom Slope” so that the sound changes gradually, instead of changing suddenly between velocity values of 63 and 64.

Control page (Controller settings)

For each combination, you can specify the functions of the B-mode functions of REALTIME CONTROLS knobs [1]– [4], and the [SW1] and [SW2.] (☞p.145, PG p.43, 249, 250)
