Chapter 2 Using the XV-3080 Effects

19: TRIPLE TAP DELAY

The Triple Tap Delay produces three delay sounds; center, left and right. The center delay time can be specified as a note value of a specified tempo.

Delay C (Delay Time Center)

Delay L (Delay Time Left)

Delay R (Delay Time Right)

Adjust the time delay from the direct sound until when the delay sound is heard. This parameter can be set as a note- value of a specified tempo. In this case, specify the value of the desired note.

When Step Rate is Set as a Note Value

As the specified tempo, you may use either the Patch Tempo or the tempo clock of the XV-3080’s system.

Fbk (Feedback Level) #

Adjust the proportion (%) of the delay sound that is fed back into the effect. Negative (-) settings will invert the phase.

Level C (Center Level)

Level L (Left Level)

Level R (Right Level)

Adjust the volume of each delay sound.

HF Damp

Adjust the frequency above which sound fed back to the effect will be cut. If you do not want to cut the high frequencies of the feedback, set this parameter to BYPASS.

LowGain

Adjust the gain of the low frequency range.

Hi Gain

Adjust the gain of the high frequency range.

Balance (Effect Balance) #

Adjust the volume balance between the direct sound and the delay sound. With a setting of D100:0W only the direct sound

will be output, and with a setting of D0:100W only the delay sound will be output.

Level (Output Level)

Adjust the output level.

20: QUADRUPLE TAP DELAY

The Quadruple Tap Delay has four delays. Each of the Delay Time parameters can be specified as a note length of the selected tempo.

L in	L out
Delay 1	Balance W
Feedback	Balance W

Delay 1 (Delay Time 1)

Delay 2 (Delay Time 2)

Delay 3 (Delay Time 3)

Delay 4 (Delay Time 4)

Adjust the time delay from the direct sound until when each delay sound is heard. These parameters can be set as a note- value of a specified tempo. In this case, specify the value of the desired note.

When Step Rate is Set as a Note Value

As the specified tempo, you may use either the Patch Tempo or the tempo clock of the XV-3080’s system.

XV-3080 specifications

The Roland XV-3080 is a powerful and versatile sound module that has become a favorite among musicians, producers, and composers since its release in the late 1990s. This module is renowned for its extensive sound library, advanced synthesis capabilities, and user-friendly interface, making it a staple in studios and on stages worldwide.

One of the standout features of the XV-3080 is its impressive range of sounds. It boasts 1,024 preset sounds and 256 user patches, which can be expanded with Roland's SR-JV80 expansion boards to access even more diverse sounds. The XV-3080 is equipped with a Waveform Memory of 128 MB, providing high-quality samples and ensuring rich, detailed sound. The module also features a powerful multitimbral engine, allowing up to 16 simultaneous parts to be played, making it an ideal choice for complex arrangements and live performances.

Another key technology in the XV-3080 is its advanced SuperNATURAL technology. This innovation enhances traditional sample playback by incorporating physical modeling, enabling more expressive and nuanced tones. Musicians can take advantage of features like dynamic layering and velocity-sensitive control, adding an organic quality that is often missing in digital instruments.

The built-in effects processor is another highlight, offering a wide range of high-quality effects, including reverb, chorus, flanger, and distortion. These effects can be applied to individual parts or used globally, allowing for creative sound design and customization. The XV-3080 also supports real-time editing, letting users tweak parameters on the fly, which is particularly useful in live settings.

Connectivity is plentiful on the XV-3080, with MIDI In/Out, as well as digital and analog outputs. This allows for seamless integration with other equipment, whether it's a DAW, a keyboard controller, or an audio interface.

The XV-3080's intuitive interface, featuring a bright LCD screen and a straightforward layout, makes navigating through options quick and easy. Musicians can spend less time fumbling with settings and more time focusing on their music.

In summary, the Roland XV-3080 is a sophisticated sound module that combines cutting-edge technology with user-friendly features. Its extensive sound library, advanced synthesis capabilities, and solid effects processing make it an essential tool for any serious musician or producer looking to create professional-quality music.
