Roland XV-88 Adjusting the Volume and Pan of a Rhythm Tone TVA, 103, Level Rhythm Tone Level

V-T1 (TVF Envelope Time 1 Velocity Sensitivity)

Use this parameter when you want velocity to affect T1 (Time 1) of the TVF envelope. If you want T1 time to be speeded up for strongly played notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed down, set this to a negative (-) value.

V-T4 (TVF Envelope Time 4 Velocity Sensitivity)

The parameter to use when you want key release speed to control the T4 (Time 4) value of the TVF envelope. If you want T4 time to be speeded up for quickly released notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed down, set this to a negative (-) value.

L0 (TVF Envelope Level 0)

Sets the TVF envelope level (L0). TVF Envelope Level 0 determines the degree to which the Cutoff frequency for the sound at the instant the key is pressed is altered relative to the reference Cutoff frequency (the Cutoff frequency value set in the TVF FILTER page).

T1–T4 (TVF Envelope Time 1–4)

Specify the TVF envelope times (T1–T4). Larger values result in longer times until the next cutoff frequency is reached (for instance, T2 controls the time from L1 until L2 is reached).

L1–L4 (TVF Envelope Level 1–4)

Specify the TVF envelope levels (L1–L4). These settings specify how the cutoff frequency will change at each point, relative to the standard cutoff frequency (the cutoff frequency value specified in the TVF FILTER page).

Chapter 6. Creating Rhythm Sets

Adjusting the Volume and Pan of a Rhythm Tone (TVA)

Here you can make settings for the TVA (Time Variant Amplifier). This sets the volume change and pan of the Rhythm Tone.

TVA

Level (Rhythm Tone Level)

Sets the volume of the Rhythm Tone. Use this parameter to adjust the volume balance between Rhythm Tones.

The volume level of the overall Rhythm Set is set with the Level parameter (RHYTHM/COMMON/RHYTHM COMMON) (p. 96); the volume levels of the Waves from which the Rhythm Tone is composed is set with the Level parameter (RHYTHM/WAVE/WMT WAVE) (p. 98).

Pan (Rhythm Tone Pan)

Sets the pan for the Rhythm Tone. A setting of L64 is far left, 0 is center, and 63R is far right.

Set the Pan for Waves comprising the Rhythm Tones with the Pan parameter (RHYTHM/WAVE/WMT PAN) (p. 99).

Random (Random Pan Depth)

Use this parameter when you want the stereo location to change randomly each time you press a key. Higher values will result in a greater width of change.

Alternate (Alternate Pan Depth)

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. This can be set either to L or R, which will invert the order in which the panning is moved between left and right. For example if two Rhythm Tones are set to L and R respectively, the panning of the two Rhythm Tones will alternate each time they are played.
