Functions of Patch Parameters

This section explains the functions the different patch parameters have, as well as the composition of these parameters.

Parameters marked by “★” can be controlled by specific MIDI messages (Matrix Control). In the PATCH Edit Com Matrix Ctrl screen you can specify how the parameter will be controlled (p. 38). Parameters marked by “◆” can be controlled by panel buttons or knobs.

Settings Common to the Entire Patch (Common)

General

Structure Type ◆

Specifies how the various sound-creating elements will be combined.

Value

TYPE1: This is the most conventional structure. Different sounds from OSC1 and OSC2 are mixed by MOD, processed by COSM1 to create the tonal character (e.g., using SBF (Side Band Filter)), and then processed by COSM2 to adjust the tone (e.g., using TVF). TYPE2: This structure connects OSC1 and OSC2 asymmetrically. This is effective when using a modulation that has the modulator set to anything other than “MIX.” Typically, you will use OSC1 and COSM1 to create the basic sound, then select the OSC2 sound and MOD settings to add variation, and finally select TVF in COSM2 to adjust the tone.

TYPE3: In this structure, OSC1 is paired with COSM1, and OSC2 is paired with COSM2. You can use a controller such as the Time Trip Pad to morph between the sound created by OSC1 and COSM1 and the sound created by OSC2 and COSM2.

Portamento (Portamento Switch)

Specifies whether the portamento effect will be applied (ON) or not (OFF).

Value: OFF, ON
