Voices No. 029 and 030 are Drum Kits. When you select a Drum Kit, various drum and percussion sounds are assigned to individual keys, from which they can be played. Details on the instruments and key assignments of each Drum Kit can be found in the Drum Kit List on page 20.

Drum Kit List

The MIDI Note number and Note are actually one octave lower than the keyboard Note number and Note. For example, in House Kit, the Kick T9 5 (Note number48/Note C2) corresponds to MIDI (Note number36/Note C1).

Voice Parameters

Parameter   Description

Octave (Figure)

For shifting the pitch of the keyboard up or down by one octave. Octave affects only notes played after pressing the button. It does not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed. Setting value: -2 . +2

Default: Depends on the Voice

Transpose (Figure)

For transposing the pitch of the keyboard up or down in semitones.

Transpose affects only notes played after pressing the button. It does not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed. Setting value: minus12 to +12

Default: 0

Sustain (Figure)

While holding down this button, the notes you play have a longer sustain. Setting value: ON, OFF Default: OFF

Pitch bend (Figure)

For adding smooth pitch variations to notes you play on the keyboard. The maximum pitch bend range can be changed via the Function. Setting value: 0 . 16383 (MIDI) Default: 8192 (CENTER)

Modulation (Figure)

For applying a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard.

For changing the parameter of the effect which is selected with the [EFFECT] selector. (This is available only when the Function setting Modulation value is set to EfctCtrl).

Setting value: 0 . 127 Default: 0

Effect List

Select the desired effect with the [EFFECT] selector then set its value with the [EFFECT CONTROL] knob.

Effect  Description

FILTER

(Figure)Filter Setting value

NOTE

Effect name and its value will appear in the display for a few seconds. This is same as the following effects.

Filter shapes the sound by allowing only a specified range of frequencies to pass and/or by producing a resonance peak at the cutoff frequency. Filter can be used to create a range of synthesizer-like sounds. Filter has two internal parameters Cutoff and Resonance. Making a setting here automatically changes the setting of these parameters as well.

Cutoff: Adjusts the cutoff frequency, and therefore the brightness of the sound. The higher the value, the brighter the sound.

Resonance: Adjusts the amount of Resonance applied at the cutoff frequency. The higher value increases the Resonance to emphasize the frequencies at the cutoff frequency, resulting in an exaggerated peak.

Selecting another Voice resets both Cutoff and Resonance to 64.

Setting value: 0 to 127 Default: Cutoff: 64, Resonance: 64

DYNAMICS (Figure)

Sets th.touch sensitivity of the keyboard. Lower values produce greater volume variation in response to keyboard  dynamics.in other words, providing greater sensitivity and  making it easier to produce wide dynamic changes. Higher  values produce a more uniform response.in other words,  

Dynamics  Setting value  providing less sensitivity and making it easier to produce loud sounds in your performance.  

Selecting another Voice resets the effect depth value you  have set.  

Setting value: 0 to 127  

Default: Depends on the Voice  

REVERB (Figure)

Adds the ambience of a club or concert hall to the sound. The higher the value, the greater the effect. Selecting another Voice resets the effect depth value you have set.

Setting value: 0 to 127

Default: Depends on the Voice

CHORUS  (Figure)

Produces a rich fat sound as if several parts are being played simultaneously. The higher the value, the greater the effect. Selecting another Voice resets the effect depth value you have set.  

Chorus  Setting value  Setting value: 0 to 127 Default: Depends on the Voice  

OTHER (Figure)

Other Setting value

Adjusts the parameters of the DSP effect selected by the Function. Selecting another Voice resets the effect depth value you have set. In the default setting, the optimum DSP type for the selected Voice is automatically called up.

DSP will be turned off when turning the power to the instrument on or when the DSP parameter is set to 0. DSP will be turned on if the value is changed.

Setting value: 0 to 127 Default: Depends on the Voice

NOTE

The effect depth value can be controlled by the [EFFECT CONTROL] knob and the Modulation wheel (if set via the Functions). If both are used to set the value, priority will be given to the last used one. For example, the value will be set to minimum if you decrease the value with the [EFFECT CONTROL] knob even when the Modulation wheel has been set to the maximum position.

DSP Type List

DSP Type Display Description

Distortion 1 Dist.1 Distortion 2 Dist.2

Adds an edgy distortion to the sound. For powerful guitar sound of Rock and Blues, it is an indispensable effect. There are two different types (Distortion 1 and 2). Turn the Knob to adjust the degree of the distortion effect.

DSP Chorus DSP Chrs Adds warm modulation to the sound. Turn the Knob to change the modulation speed.

Flanger Flanger Creates a swirling, metallic sound similar to that of a jet airplane. Turn the Knob to change the modulation speed.

Phaser Phaser Cyclically modulates the phase to add modulation to the sound. Turn the Knob to adjust the modulation speed.

Tremolo Tremolo Rich Tremolo effect with volume modulation. Turn the Knob to adjust the modulation speed.

Rotary Speaker RotarySp Simulates the characteristic effect of a rotary speaker. Turn the Knob to change the rotating speed.

Low Pass Filter LPF Modifies the tonal color of the sound by cutting the signals above the Cutoff Frequency. Turn the Knob to adjust the cutoff frequency.

High Pass Filter HPF Modifies the tonal color of the sound by cutting the signals below the Cutoff Frequency. Turn the Knob to adjust the cutoff frequency.
