PITCH

OSC1 PITCH

Parameter	Value	Explanation
OctShift	-4– +4	Adjusts the pitch of the OSC1’s sound up
(Octave		or down in units of an octave (+/-4 oc-
Shift)		taves).

OSC2 PITCH

Parameter	Value	Explanation
Coarse	-48–	Adjusts the pitch of the oscillator up or
(Coarse	+48	down in semitone steps (+/-4 octaves).
Tune)
Fine	-50–	Adjusts the pitch of the oscillator up or
(Fine Tune)	+50	down in 1-cent steps (+/-50 cents).
PitchKF	-200–	This specifies the amount of pitch
(Pitch Key	+200	change that will occur when you play a
Follow)		key one octave higher (i.e., 12 keys up-
		ward on the keyboard).
		If you want the pitch to rise one octave
		as on a conventional keyboard, set this
		to “+100.” If you want the pitch to rise
		two octaves, set this to “+200.” Con-
		versely, set this to a negative value if you
		want the pitch to fall. With a setting of
		“0,” all keys will produce the same pitch.

GLIDE

Parameter	Value	Explanation
Time	0–127	Specifies the time over which the pitch is
		to change.
OSC1/2	-63–	Specifies the amount of pitch change that
Depth	+63	is to occur.

VIBRATO

Parameter	Value	Explanation
Type	NORMAL,	Selects the type of vibrato.
	FEMALE1,
	FEMALE2,
	MALE
Rate	0–127	Adjusts the vibrato speed.
OSC1/2	-63– +63	Adjusts the depth of the vibrato ap-
Depth		plied to OSC1 or OSC2.
OSC1/2	-63– +63	Adjusts the depth of the vibrato that
ModDepth		is applied to OSC1 or OSC2 by the
		controller assigned by Controller (p.
		31).

EQ GROWL

EQUALIZER

Mid 1/Mid 2

Parameter	Value	Explanation
Freq	50, 63, 80, 100, 125,	Selects the frequency of the
	160, 200, 250, 315,	middle range.
	400, 500, 630, 800,
	1000, 1250, 1600,
	2000, 2500, 3150,
	4000, 5000, 6300,
	8000, 10000, 12500,
	16000, 20000 Hz
Q	0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0,	Adjusts the width of the mid-
	8.0	dle range. Set a higher value
		for Q to narrow the range to
		be affected.
Gain	-15– +15 dB	Adjusts the gain of the mid-
		dle range. Positive (+) set-
		tings will emphasize the
		middle range.

GROWL

Parameter	Value	Explanation
GrowlSw	OFF,	Switches growl on/off.
	ON
Intensity	0–127	Adjusts the intensity of modulation.
ModDepth	-63–	Adjusts the intensity of modulation by the
	+63	controller assigned by Controller (p. 31).
Speed	0–127	Adjusts the speed of modulation.
ModDepth	-63–	Adjusts the speed of modulation by the
	+63	controller assigned by Controller (p. 31).

TVA

Level

Parameter	Value	Explanation
Level	0–127	Specifies the volume of the patch.
LevelKF	-200–	Use this parameter if you want the volume
(Level Key	+200	of the patch to change according to the key
Follow)		that is pressed. Relative to the volume at
		the C5 key (center C), positive (+) settings
		will cause the volume to rise for notes
		higher than C5, and negative (-) settings
		will cause the volume to fall for notes
		higher than C4. Larger settings will pro-
		duce greater change.
