Rhythm Edit

Wave

These parameters select the PCM waveform that is to form the basis of the rhythm tone, and apply effects to the waveform.

Description

 

 

 

 

 

Wave Group

INT, SRX, PRES,

Group of the waveform upon which the rhythm tone is to be based

 

 

USER, CARD

INT: Waveforms stored in internal memory

 

 

 

SRX: Waveforms stored in a wave expansion board

 

 

 

PRES: Preset sample waveforms

 

 

 

USER: User sample waveforms

 

 

 

CARD: Card sample waveforms

 

 

 

* SRX can be selected only if a wave expansion board is installed.

 

Wave No. L/MONO

0 (OFF)–693

Waveform upon which the tone is to be based

 

Wave No. R

 

On the MC-909 you can specify a separate waveform for the L and R channels.

 

 

 

* If you want to use the same waveform for the L and R channels, set the R channel to 0 (OFF).

Mode

Wave Gain

-6, 0, +6, +12 dB

Waveform gain (amplitude)

 

 

 

The value will change in steps of 6 dB (decibels). An increase of 6 dB will double the gain. If you

Patch/Sample

 

 

want to use the booster to distort the sound, it is effective to set this to the maximum.

 

 

 

FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation)

 

 

FMX creates a complex overtone structure by using a specific waveform to frequency-modulate the selected waveform. This is suitable for cre-

 

ating extreme sounds or sound effects.

 

 

Wave FXM SW

OFF, ON

Selects whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF)

 

(Wave FXM Switch)

 

 

 

Wave FXM Color

1–4

Selects how FXM will apply frequency modulation.

 

(Wave FXM Color)

 

Increasing this value will produce a rougher sound. Decreasing this value will produce a more

 

 

 

metallic sound.

 

Wave FXM Depth

0–16

Depth of frequency modulation applied by FXM

 

(Wave FXM Depth)
