Chapter 5 Setting/Changing Sounds (Patches)
Details of Putting a Patch Together
Every patch is constructed as shown in the following figure.
fig.5-01
What is a “Tone”?
As shown in the above figure, you can select any two of the
384 built-in tones—the raw material for synth sounds—and
use them in a patch.
The two tones in a patch are called the “1st tone” and the
“2nd tone.”
You can assign the selected tones separately to individual
strings, and then layer them (p. 51). You can also adjust
parameters such as attack (p. 49), release (p. 50), brightness
(p. 50), and transpose (p. 51). In addition, you can also
independently select a transposition (TRANSPOSE) for each
string.
In addition to tone selections, tone settings can be saved in
patches.
Recording and Settings of Each
Patch
Besides patch tone-selection and string assignments—as well
as tone settings—you can set and store the following items in
a patch, as well as other items.
Patch name (p. 38)
How effects are applied (p. 53)
Arpeggiator patterns and related settings (p. 76)
Harmonist settings (p. 80)
What happens when you step on a pedal (p. 43)
Program numbers sent to external MIDI devices (p. 88)
External sound generator transpositions (p. 51)
For more information about these settings, please consult the
reference pages listed above for each item.
Making separate settings for
each string (STRING SELECT)
Three of the TONE parameters—“LAYER,” “1ST
TRANSPOSE,” and “2ND TRANSPOSE—and the four
COMMON parameters—“MIDI [PC],” “MIDI [CC0],” “MIDI
[CC32],” and “MIDI [TRANSPOSE]”—can be set separately
for each string using the [STRING SELECT] button.
When you press [STRING SELECT], the three-digit display
will indicate the selected string as follows.
fig.5-02
To set each string independently, press the [STRING SELECT]
button to select the desired string, and then turn the [VALUE]
dial to change the currently selected parameter’s setting. For
example, if you use the [STRING SELECT] button to select “5,”
and then turn the [VALUE] dial, the currently selected
parameter’s setting will change only for String 5. You can
continue and adjust the settings for the other strings using the
same method.
* If you use the [STRING SELECT] button to select “ALL” or
“6-5,” the parameter’s value may blink, signifying that the
settings for the selected strings are different from one another.
If you turn the [VALUE] dial to select a value, the value will
be applied to each selected string: to all strings if “ALL” is
displayed, or to Strings 5 and 6 if “6-5” is displayed.
