The Modify Gate Time job can be used to produce a more staccato or legato feel, as required.

Experiment with the parameters to get a feel for what they do.

New Gate Time = Original Gate Time x rate/100 + offset

(If the right side of the equation is less than 0, the New Gate Time becomes 1.)

After setting the parameters, as required press [ENTER] to execute the Modify Gate Time job. The metronome icon will appear on the display while the data is being processed, then “Completed” will appear briefly when the job is done. Press the [F6] key (“Exit”) to return to the job list, or a mode key to go directly to the selected mode.

04: Crescendo

Produces a gradual crescendo (increase in note velocity) or decrescendo (de- crease in note velocity) in the specified track over the specified range of measures.

The “TR” parameter selects the track to be affected by the Crescendo job: “01” ... “16”.

The “M” parameters above the graphic bar are used to specify the first measure:beat and last measure:beat of the range to be modified.

The “Range” parameter determines the range of velocity values over which the crescendo will occur. A setting of “+24”, for example, will cause the MIDI velocity values to increase by 24 over the specified measure range (The MIDI velocity value range is from 1 to 127).
