Controlling How a Rhythm Tone will Sound with Controllers (CONTROL)

The parameters in this group determine how the controllers function and how instruments in a Rhythm Set will sound.

CONTROL

These parameters determine how each Rhythm Tone is controlled.

Bend Range

Specifies the amount of pitch change in semitones (4 octaves) that will occur when the Pitch Bend Lever is moved. The amount of change when the lever is tilted is set to the same value for both left and right sides.

Envelope Mode

Usually when a looped Wave (p. 95) is selected, sound will continue as long as a key remains pressed. Select NO SUSTAIN if you want sound to decay naturally even if the key is not released.

If a one-shot waveform (p. 95) is selected, it will not sustain even if this parameter is set to SUSTAIN.

Chapter 6. Creating Rhythm Sets

Mute Group

On an actual acoustic drum set, an open hi-hat and a closed hi-hat sound can never occur simultaneously. To reproduce the reality of this situation, you can set up a Mute Group.

The Mute Group function allows you to designate two or more Rhythm Tones that are not allowed to sound simultaneously. Up to 31 Mute Groups can be used. Rhythm Tones that are not belong to any such group should be set to OFF.

Assign Type

Assign Type sets the way sounds are played when the same
key is pressed a number of times.
MULTI: The sounds produced by pressing the same key are
layered. Even with continuous sounds where the sound
plays for an extended time, such as with crash cymbals, the
sounds are layered, without previously played sounds being
eliminated.
	6
SINGLE: Only one sound can be played at a time when the
	Chapter
same key is pressed. With continuous sounds where the
sound plays for an extended time, the previous sound is
stopped when the following sound is played.

Rx MIDI (Receive MIDI)

These parameters determine how each Rhythm Tone will respond to received Expression/Pan/Hold 1 MIDI messages.

Expression (Receive Expression Switch)

Specifies whether Expression messages will be received (ON) or not (OFF).

Pan (Receive Pan Mode)

Specifies how Pan messages will be received. CONTINUOUS: Pan messages will be responded to immediately, instantly changing the stereo position of the Tone.

KEY-ON: The stereo location of the Rhythm Tone will be changed only when the next note is played. If a Pan message is received while a note is sounding, its stereo location will not change.

The channels cannot be set so as not to receive Pan messages.

Hold-1 (Receive Hold 1 Switch)

Specifies whether Hold 1 messages will be received (ON) or not (OFF).
