Chapter 6 Creating Rhythm Sets

V-Curve (TVA Level Velocity Curve)

Range: FIXED/1–7

This setting allows you to select from seven velocity curves that determine how the force with which the keyboard is played is to affect the Tone’s volume. The selected curve is displayed to the below of its parameter value.

When set to “FIXED,” the Tone’s volume will not be affected by the force with which the keyboard is played.

V-Sens (TVA Level Velocity Sens)

Range: -63– +63

Use this setting when you want keyboard touch (velocity) to affect the Tone volume. Set this to a positive value to have the changes in tone volume increase the more forcefully the keys are played; to make the Tone play more softly as you play harder, set this to a negative value.

Pan

Pan (Tone Pan)

Range: L64–63R

Specifies the stereo position of the Tone. L64 is far left, 0 is center, and 63R is far right.

Random (Random Pan Depth)

Range: 0–63

Use this parameter to activate random panning, note-by- note. Higher values will result in a greater width of change.

Alternate (Alternate Pan Depth)

Range: L63–63R

This setting causes panning to be alternated between left and right each time a key is pressed. Higher values will result in a greater width of change. You can select the stereo placement of the first key using this parameter – its opposite will be used for the second note, and so on back and forth. If you want to alternate the pan position of two Tones, set them to the exact opposite L and R settings.

TVA Envelope

Time 1–4 (TVA Envelope Time 1–4)

Range: 0–127

These settings determine the times over which the Tone level setting will change from one TVA envelope level to the next.

Level 1–3 (TVA Envelope Level 1–3)

Range: 0–127

Each TVA envelope level value determines an amount of change to be applied to the original Rhythm Tone level setting.

Velocity Sens

Time1 (TVA Envelope Time 1 Velocity Sensitivity)

Range: -63– +63

Use this parameter when you want keyboard playing dynamics (velocity) to affect T1 (Time 1) of the TVA envelope. For higher settings, there will be a greater difference between softly and strongly played notes. With positive (+) settings, greater keyboard velocity will reduce the T1 setting. With negative (-) settings, greater keyboard velocity will increase the T1 setting.

Time4 (TVA Envelope Time 4 Velocity Sensitivity)

Range: -63– +63

Use this parameter when you want keyboard playing dynamics (velocity) to affect T4 (Time 4) of the TVA envelope. With higher settings, the T4 value will change more significantly depending on whether you release the key slowly or quickly. With positive (+) settings, greater keyboard velocity will reduce the T4 setting. With negative (- ) settings, greater keyboard velocity will increase the T4 setting.
