Roland XV-5080 Saving Performances You Create, Confirming Midi Information for Each Midi Channel

Chapter 5 Creating a Performance

Expression (Receive Expression Switch)

Range: OFF/ON

Sets whether the MIDI channel will receive MIDI Expression messages (ON) or not (OFF).

Hold-1 (Receive Hold 1 Switch)

Range: OFF/ON

Sets whether the MIDI channel will receive MIDI Hold 1 messages (ON) or not (OFF).

Phase Lock

Range: OFF/ON

This setting activates (ON) or de-activates (OFF) synchronization of the timing of Parts that share a common MIDI channel.

*When Part sounds are layered on top of each other as a result of sharing a MIDI channel, there may be a discrepancy in their timing. The Phase Lock feature can synchronize the sounds so that they start precisely at the same time. However, since this delays the sounds slightly to line them up, turn this feature off when it is not needed.

Velocity Curve

Range: OFF/1/2/3/4

For each Part, you can select from among four velocity curves to find the one that best matches the touch of the MIDI keyboard connected to the XV-5080. Set this to “OFF” if you are using the MIDI keyboard’s own velocity curve.
