Roland Piano owner manual Creating a Performance, Pitch Bend Range Part Pitch Bend Range

Pitch Bend Range (Part Pitch Bend Range)

Specifies the amount of pitch change in semitones (2 octaves) that will occur when the Pitch Bend Lever is moved. The amount of change when the lever is tilted is set to the same value for both left and right sides. When using the setting of the patch assigned to each part (p. 49), set this to “PAT.”

Value: 0–24, PAT

Portamento Switch (Part Portamento Switch)

Specify whether portamento will be applied. Turn this parameter “ON” when you want to apply Portamento and “OFF” when you don’t. When using the setting of the patch assigned to each part (p. 48), set this to “PAT.”

Value: OFF, ON, PAT

Portamento Time (Part Portamento Time)

When portamento is used, this specifies the time over which the pitch will change. Higher settings will cause the pitch change to the next note to take more time. When using the setting of the patch assigned to each part (p. 49), set this to “PAT.”

Value: 0–127, PAT

For the part to which the rhythm set is assigned, this setting is ignored.

Cutoff Offset (Part Cutoff Offset)

Adjusts the cutoff frequency for the patch or rhythm set assigned to a part.

Value: -64– +63

Patches also have a Cutoff Offset setting (p. 47). The final Cutoff frequency value is the sum of the tone Cutoff Frequency value and the patch and part Cutoff Frequency Offset values. If the tone’s cutoff frequency is already set to “127” (maximum), there will be no change produced by setting the Cutoff Frequency Offset to a positive value.

Resonance Offset (Part Resonance Offset)

Adjusts the Resonance for the patch or rhythm set assigned to a part. Value: -64– +63

Patches also have a Resonance Offset setting (p. 47). The final Resonance value is the sum of the tone Resonance value and the patch and part Resonance Offset values. If the tone’s resonance is already set to “127” (maximum), there will be no change produced by setting the resonance offset to a positive value.

Creating a Performance

Attack Time Offset (Part Attack Time Offset)

Adjusts the TVA Envelope Attack Time for the patch or rhythm set assigned to a part.

Value: -64– +63

Patches also contain the Attack Time Offset setting (p. 48). The
final TVA Envelope attack time value is therefore the sum of the
tone’s TVA Envelope Time 1 setting, the patch’s Attack Time	Performance
Offset, and the part’s Attack Time Offset. If the tone’s Time 1
parameter is already set to “127” (maximum), there will be no
change produced by setting the Attack Time Offset to a positive
value.
Release Time Offset (Part Release Time Offset)	a
Adjusts the TVA Envelope Release Time for the patch or rhythm set
	Creating
assigned to a part.
Value: -64– +63
Patches also contain a Release Time Offset setting (p. 48). The
final TVA Envelope release time value is therefore the sum of the
tone’s TVA Envelope Time 4 setting, the patch’s Release Time
Offset, and the part’s Release Time Offset. If the tone’s Time 4
parameter is set to “127” (maximum), there will be no change in
the Release Time Offset, even when this is set to a positive value.

Decay Time Offset (Part Decay Time Offset)

Adjusts the TVA Envelope Decay Time for the patch or rhythm set assigned to a part.

Value: -64– +63

Vibrate Rate (Part Vibrate Rate)

For each part, adjust the vibrato speed (the rate at which the pitch is modulated). The pitch will be modulated more rapidly for higher settings, and more slowly with lower settings.

Value: -64– +63

Vibrate Depth (Part Vibrate Depth)

For each part, this adjusts the depth of the vibrato effect (the depth at which the pitch is modulated). The pitch will be modulated more greatly for higher settings, and less with lower settings.

Value: -64– +63

Vibrate Delay (Part Vibrate Delay)

For each part, this adjusts the time delay until the vibrato (pitch modulation) effect begins. Higher settings will produce a longer delay time before vibrato begins, while lower settings produce a shorter time.

Value: -64– +63
