Getting Acquainted with the INTEGRA-7
Studio Sets
Studio Sets allow you to use multiple tones and drum kits simultaneously.
One studio set contains 16 “parts” for tones and one external part (EXT PART). You can assign a tone or drum kit to each part, allowing you to create an
ensemble or to play rich-sounding layers.
If you’re using an external MIDI device or DAW software, you’ll be able to independently control multiple sounds on a single INTEGRA-7 unit.
How a Tone Is Structured
A “tone” is a unit of sound used when performing. There are “SuperNATURAL tones and
“PCM tones, each containing their own eect (MFX) settings.
You need to select a tone from the sound library and assign it to a part. You can also
edit a tone and save it in user memory.
SuperNATURAL Tone
There are three types of SuperNATURAL tones:
“SuperNATURAL acoustic tones, “SuperNATURAL synth
tones, and “SuperNATURAL drum kits.
SuperNATURAL Acoustic Tone (p. 38)
These tones do not merely reproduce the sound of
acoustic instruments, they also use behavior modeling
technology appropriate for the selected tone to
emulate the expressive power distinctive of each
acoustic instrument, such as the phrases performed
by the player and the dierences between chords and
melodic phrases.
SuperNATURAL Synth Tone (p. 38)
These tones consist of three partials, and allow powerful
synth sounds to be produced by a single tone.
SuperNATURAL Drum Kit (p. 39)
These tones consist of 62 partials; they allow you to
sound a dierent percussion instrument for each key
(note number) that’s played.
A drum kit is provided with six compressor + equalizer
units, allowing you to divide the instruments into
groups so that you can individually adjust the dynamics
of each group or modify its tone quality.
PCM Tone
There are two types of PCM tones: “PCM synth tones”
and “PCM drum kits.
PCM Synth Tone (p. 39)
These tones consist of four partials. Each partial can
be turned on/o individually, allowing you to choose
which partials will be heard.
PCM Drum Kit (p. 40)
These consist of 88 partials, and allow for the play of a dierent percussion instrument sound for each key (note number) you press. A drum kit is
provided with six compressor + equalizer units, allowing you to divide the instruments into groups so that you can individually adjust the dynamics
of each group or modify its tone quality.
* The six compressor + equalizer units for a drum kit are applied only to one specied part of the multiple parts to which a drum kit can be assigned.
Make this setting in STUDIO SET COMMON (p. 32).
* Dedicated multi-eect settings are included in each tone (SuperNATURAL tones and PCM tones) built into the INTEGRA-7.
EXPANSION Virtual Slots
EXPANSION Virtual Slots are banks into which you can load “EXPANSION SOUNDS” sound data for use.
“SRX tones, “SuperNATURAL tones, or “ExPCM (GM2 compatible) tones” can be loaded into an EXPANSION Virtual Slot. “ExPCM tones” use all
four slots, meaning that they do not allow other tones to be loaded.
For details, refer to “04 Using the Expansion Sounds” (p. 14).
