Chapter 4 Creating Patches

Time (Tone Delay Time)

Range: 0–127/Note

Specifies the time after which the Tone will sound when using Tone Delay.

When the Type parameter (STRUCT page) has a setting of 2– 10, the outputs of Tones 1 (3) and 2 (4) will be combined with Tone 2 (4). Tone 1 (or 3) settings will be ignored.

For more information on the types of notes, refer to the Parameter List (p. 241).

PATCH WG Pitch page ([PATCH] - [F2 (WG)] - [F2 (Pitch)])

Pitch

These parameters set the basic pitch of each Tone.

Coarse Tune (Tone Coarse Tune)

Range: -48– +48

Adjusts the pitch of the Tones simultaneously in semitone steps over a range of +/-4 octaves.

Fine Tune (Tone Fine Tune)

Range: -50– +50

Adjusts the pitch of the Tone in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) over a range of half a semitone up or down.

Random Pitch (Tone Random Pitch)

Depth

Range: 0–1200

Specifies the width of random pitch deviation that will occur each time a key is pressed. If you do not want a random pitch change, set this parameter to 0. The setting is adjustable in units of 1 cent (1/100th of a semitone).

Pitch Keyfollow (Wave Pitch

Keyfollow)

Range: -200– +200

Sets the amount of pitch change that will occur per octave on the keyboard.

If you want the pitch to change by one octave for each 12 keys on the keyboard — as on normal keyboard instruments

set this parameter to +100. For a two-octave pitch change over the span of 12 keys, set this parameter to +200. Negative (-) values cause the Tone’s pitch to go down as you go up the keyboard. If you want the same pitch to sound regardless of what key is pressed, set this parameter to 0.

Pitch Envelope

These parameters determine the amount of pitch enveloping

– changes to your basic pitch settings that occur over time – the effect of velocity on the pitch envelope, and the basic characteristics of the pitch envelope itself.
