By adjusting the filter resonance level, you can increase or decrease the resonance level to add a unique charac- ter to the sound.

By adjusting the cutoff frequency of a high pass filter, you can modify the brightness of the sound.

Cutoff frequency

Knob [3]: EG-INTENSITY

Adjust the filter EG intensity (the depth at which the filter EG is applied).

Rotating the knob will affect the depth of the filter EG. Normally, rotating the knob toward the left will make the filter EG apply less deeply, and rotating it toward the right will make the filter EG apply more deeply. Since the filter EG will operate based on the cutoff fre- quency of the filter, knobs [1] and [3] will work together to control the tonal changes produced by the filter.

Time

Knob [4]: EG-RELEASE

Adjust the EG release times of the filter and amp. This will determine the time from note-off until the sound disappears.

When you operate the knob, the release times of the fil- ter EG and the amp EG will change. Normally, rotating the knob toward the left will shorten the release time, and rotating it toward the right will lengthen the release time.

When the arpeggiator is running, it is effective to use this in conjunction with the arpeggiator [GATE] knob to control the arpeggiated notes.

B mode controls

You can control parameters such as volume, porta- mento time, pan or filter and amp EG, pitch LFO, and master effect send levels etc.

In each preset program, appropriate functions are assigned to the B-mode knobs. The functions that are assigned can be viewed in the LCD screen.

The B-mode function settings are made for each indi- vidual program, combination, or song. In Sampling mode and Song Play mode, the B-mode functions are set for the entire mode.

For details on making these settings (☞p.127).

Viewing the parameters that are assigned to [SW1], [SW2], and the realtime control B-mode

In Program mode, the P0: Play shows the functions that are assigned to [SW1] and [SW2], and to the B- mode of realtime control knobs [1], [2], [3], and [4].

When a program number is selected in Program P0: Play, or when a combination number is selected in Combination mode page P0: Play, you can use the [VALUE] slider as a source for alternate modulation or effect dynamic modula- tion, and control program parameters or effect parameters.

Keyboard

Velocity

The force with which you play a note can apply an effect.

Normally this is used to control volume, or the speed or sensitivity of the EG.

After Touch

An effect can be applied by pressing down on the key- board after playing a note.

Normally this is used to control volume, tone (cutoff frequency), or LFO sensitivity etc.
