Parameter Value Explanation
PS OFF, ON
Portamento.Switch
Portamento is an eect that creates a
smooth change in pitch from one note
to the next.
PtN 0–127
Portamento.Time
This species the time over which
the pitch will change when using
portamento. Higher values will lengthen
the time over which the pitch will reach
the next note.
uoL 0–127 Volume
This species the volume of the tone.
rEu 0–127
Reverb
This eect adds the reverberation that
is characteristic of a performance in a
large hall. Higher values produce deeper
reverberation.
rEL -64–63
Release.Time.(*1)
This adjusts the time from note-o
(i.e., when you release the key) until
the sound disappears. Higher values
produce a longer release time.
At -64–63
Attack.Time.(*1)
This adjusts the sharpness (speed) at
which the sound begins. Higher values
produce a more gentle attack.
CUt -64–63
Cuto.(*1)
Increasing the cuto value will make
the sound harder (brighter); decreasing
it will make the sound more mellow
(darker). Use this parameter to make
adjustments if the sound is too mued
or too bright.
rES -64–63
Resonance.(*1)
Increasing the resonance value will
produce a distinctive tonal character
that is typical of a synthesizer. If you
want to emphasize the eect of
resonance, it’s a good idea to slightly
lower the cuto.
*1 The values you specify here are an adjustment relative to the value
assigned by each tone. If this value is set to 0, the parameter will be as
specied by the tone’s own settings.

MEMO
• You can make the value change more quickly by
holding down the [INC/+] / [DEC/–] button. If you want
the value to change even faster, hold down the button
and press the other button as well.
• Even while editing the value, you can play the keyboard
to hear the result.
