Using the Knobs to Modify

the Sound During Playback

(Real-Time Modify)

You can freely modify the sound of a patch by moving

the sound parameter knobs while a pattern is playing.

This capability is referred to as Real-Time Modify, and

is especially effective when used during a live perfor-

mance. There are several ways in which Real-Time

Modify can be performed, and you can modify the

sound either of the entire patch or of individual

rhythm tones, etc.

Modifying the Sound of an Entire

Patch

HereÕs how to modify the entire patch (rhythm set)

that is selected as the current part.

1. Select a pattern, and play it (p. 19).

Make the [PTN CALL] and [RPS] indicators go dark.

2. Use [PART SELECT] and the PART buttons to

select the current part.

3. Make sure that the [TONE SELECT] indicator

is dark.

If it is lit, press [RHYTHM MUTE] to make the [TONE

SELECT] indicator go dark.

fig.2-42

In this state, you can modify all tones (rhythm tones)

of the entire patch.

4. Use the knobs to modify the sound.

fig.2-43

Real-Time Modify can be used with the knobs and

buttons of the PITCH section, FILTER/AMPLIFIER

section, ENVELOPE section, LFO1 section and POR-

TAMENTO section.

When modifying the rhythm part, parameters of the

LFO1 section and the PORTAMENTO section are not

used.
