• Center Key

Determines the central note or pitch for the Key Follow effect on pitch. Depending on the Pitch Sensitivity parameter above, the further away from the Center Key the keys are played, the greater the degree of pitch change.

❏ Settings C -2 ~ G8

nYou can also set the Center Key directly from the keyboard, by holding down the [INFORMATION] button and pressing the desired key. See “Basic Operation” on page 75.

• EG Time Sens (EG Time Sensitivity)

 

Determines the degree to which the notes (specifically,

 

their position or octave range) affect the Pitch EG times of

 

the selected element. The Center Key (next parameter) is

 

used as the basic pitch for this parameter.

 

A positive setting will cause the pitch of lower notes to

 

 

change slower and that of higher notes to change faster.

 

Negative values will have the opposite effect.

●[F3]-[SF1] Normal Element Filter Type

Basic Structure (page 46)

From this display you can make comprehensive settings for the Filter section. The available parameters differ depending on which Filter type is selected here.

• Type

Basically, there are four different Filter types: an LPF (Low Pass Filter), an HPF (High Pass Filter), a BPF (Band Pass Filter) and a BEF (Band Elimination Filter). Each type has a different frequency response and produces a different effect on the sound. The MOTIF also features special combination Filter types, for additional sonic control.

❏ Settings See below.

LPF24D (Low Pass Filter 24dB/oct Digital)

A 4-pole (-24db/oct) dynamic LPF with a strong resonance.

Resonance

LPF24A (Low Pass Filter 24dB/oct Analog)

A 4-pole (-24db/oct) dynamic LPF with a character similar to those found on analog synthesizers

Resonance

LPF18 (Low Pass Filter18dB/oct)

A 3-pole (-18db/oct) dynamic LPF.

LPF18s (Low Pass Filter [18dB/oct Staggered) Also a 3-pole (-18db/oct) dynamic LPF, but with a shallower frequency curve.
