Vel Fade Lower (Velocity Fade Width Lower)

This Determines what will happen to the tone’s level when the tone is played at a velocity lower than its specified velocity range. Higher settings produce a more gradual change in volume. If you want notes played outside the specified key velocity range to not be sounded at all, set this to “0.”

Value: 0–127

Vel Range Lower (Velocity Range Lower)

This sets the lowest velocity at which the tone will sound. Make these settings when you want different tones to sound in response to notes played at different strengths.

Value: 1–UPPER

Vel Range Upper (Velocity Range Upper)

This sets the highest velocity at which the tone will sound. Make these settings when you want different tones to sound in response to notes played at different strengths.

Value: LOWER–127

If you attempt to set the Lower velocity limit above the Upper, or the Upper below the Lower, the other value will automatically be adjusted to the same setting.

When using the Matrix Control to have different tones played, set the lowest value (Lower) and highest value (Upper) of the value of the MIDI message used.

Vel Fade Upper (Velocity Fade Width Upper)

This determines what will happen to the tone’s level when the tone is played at a velocity greater than its specified velocity range. Higher settings produce a more gradual change in volume. If you want notes played outside the specified key velocity range to not be sounded at all, set this to “0.”

Value: 0–127

Creating a Patch

For details on the setting, refer to “How to Make the Patch

Settings” (p. 42).

Wave Group

Patcha

Wave

Creating

Selects the group for the waveform that is to be the basis of the tone.

 

Value

 

INT: Waveforms stored in internal memory

 

XP-A:Waveform stored in a Wave Expansion Board (SR-JV80 series)

 

 

installed in EXP-A slots.

 

XP-B:Waveforms residing on a Wave Expansion Board (SRX series)

 

installed in the EXP B slot

 

 

XP-C:Waveforms residing on a Wave Expansion Board (SRX series)

 

installed in the EXP C slot

 

You cannot select a waveform group of a Wave Expansion Board

 

that is not installed.

 

Wave No. (L) (Wave Number (L))

 

Wave No. (R) (Wave Number (R))

 

Selects the basic waveform for a tone. Along with the Wave number,

 

the Wave name appears at the lower part of the display.

 

When in monaural mode, only the left side (L) is specified. When in

 

stereo, the right side (R) is also specified.

 

Value: ----, 1–1083

 

Gain (Wave Gain)

 

Sets the gain (amplification) of the waveform. The value changes in 6

 

dB (decibel) steps—an increase of 6 dB doubles the waveform’s gain.

 

If you intend to use the Booster to distort the waveform’s sound, set

 

this parameter to its maximum value (p. 57).

 

Value: -6, 0, +6, +12

 

FXM Switch

 

This sets whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF).

 

Value: OFF, ON

 

FXM

 

FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation) uses a specified waveform

 

to apply frequency modulation to the currently selected

 

waveform, creating complex overtones. This is useful for

 

creating dramatic sounds or sound effects.

 

FXM Color

 

Specifies how FXM will perform frequency modulation. Higher

 

settings result in a grainier sound, while lower settings result in a

 

more metallic sound.

 

Value: 1–4
