Chapter 3. VOICE MODE
• Velocity Sensitivity Depth = 0
• Velocity Sensitivity Offset = 112
• This setting causes the tone generator to
apply a fixed velocity, regardless of the key-
board playing strength.
• This setting is convenient for organ-type
voices.
• By raising or lowering the Velocity Sensi-
tivity Offset, you can vary the velocity that
is applied by the tone generator. A setting
of 64 produces a velocity of 1. A setting of
127 produces the maximum velocity.
• Velocity Sensitivity Depth = 32
• Velocity Sensitivity Offset = 96
• This setting is suitable when you want ve-
locity to change in response to keyboard
playing dynamics, but you don’t want the
velocity value to drop too low.
• This setting is useful for brass riffs or for
solo instruments.
7. Portamento switch, Portamento time
• Portamento is a function that smoothly changes the pitch
between two notes of different pitch.
• Portamento Switch specifies whether or not portamento will
be applied to each part.
• Portamento Time specifies the way in which portamento is
applied to each part. Higher values will cause the pitch to
change more slowly. Lower values will produce a faster
change.
• Portamento will not apply to drum voices or SFX kit voices.

8. Modulation Wheel LFO depth pitch modulation,Modulation Wheel LFO depth filter modulation,Modulation Wheel LFO depth amplitude modulation
• For each part, these parameters specify the depth of the LFO
effect on pitch, filter, and amplitude that is controlled by
the modulation wheel.
• Pitch modulation is vibrato, filter modulation is wah, am-
plitude modulation is tremolo.
• Higher values will produce a deeper effect.

9. Filter cutoff, Filter cutoff resonance
• For each part, these parameters adjust the cutoff frequency
of the filter, modifying the tone.
• Since the filters of the QY700 are low pass filters, the por-
tion of the sound above the cutoff frequency will be cut.
• A low cutoff frequency will remove many of the overtones,
causing the sound to be darker and mellower.
• A high cutoff frequency will cut few or none of the over-
tones, allowing the original bright sound of the waveform
to be output.
