Sound Edit
Pitch: Pitch Mod
Reference
Lowest Pitch Bend only
On this oscillator, Pitch Bend is only activated on
the lowest note currently playing on the key-
board.
Ribbon to Pitch
Pitch Bend range assigned to the Ribbon Controller message
(CC#16). The Ribbon Controller message can be received from
MIDI or contained in a Standard MIDI File.
-12…0…+12 Maximum bending, when touching the extreme
left or right of the Ribbon Controller.
JS (+X)
This parameter specifies how the pitch will change when the joy-
stick is moved all the way to the right. A setting of 12 produces 1
octave of change.
For example if you set this to +12 and move the joystick all the
way to the right, the pitch will rise one octave above the original
pitch.
-60…+12 Maximum pitch change in semitones.
JS (–X)
This parameter specifies how the pitch will change when the joy-
stick is moved all the way to the left. A setting of 12 produces 1
octave of change.
For example, if you set this to -60 and move the joystick all the
way to the left, the pitch will fall five octaves below the original
pitch. This can be used to simulate the downward swoops that a
guitarist produces using the tremolo arm.
-60…+12 Maximum pitch change in semitones.
AMS (Alternate Modulation Source)
This parameter selects the source that will modulate the pitch of
the selected oscillator. See “AMS (Alternate Modulation Source)
list” on page 256.
Intensity
This parameter specifies the depth and direction of the effect
produced by “AMS”. With a setting of 0, no modulation will be
applied. With a setting of 12.00, the pitch will change up to one
octave.
For example, if you set “AMS” to JS (-Y) and move the joystick
downwards, the pitch will rise if this parameter is set to a posi-
tive (+) value, or fall if this parameter is set to a negative (–)
value. The range is a maximum of one octave.
-12.00…+12.00
Parameter value.
Pitch EG
The Pitch EG (Envelope Generator) is unique to all oscillators.
Velocity Intensity
This parameter specifies the depth and direction of the modula-
tion that the pitch EG specified on “Pitch: Pitch EG” will apply to
the pitch. With a setting of 12.00, the pitch will change a maxi-
mum of ±1 octave.
-12.00…+12.00
Parameter value.
Pitch EG AMS (Alternate Modulation Source)
This parameter selects the source that will modulate the pitch
EG of the selected oscillator. See “AMS (Alternate Modulation
Source) list” on page 256).
Pitch EG Intensity
This parameter specifies the depth and direction of the effect
that “AMS” will have. For example, if you set “AMS” to Velocity
and set this value to +12.00, the velocity will control the range of
pitch change produced by the pitch EG in a range of ±1 octave.
As you play more softly, the pitch change will draw closer to the
pitch EG levels.
Note: “Intensity” (Pitch EG) and AMS will be added to determine
the depth and direction of the pitch modulation applied by the
pitch EG.
Portamento
Enabled
This parameter turns the portamento effect (smooth change in
pitch from one note to the next) on/off, and specifies how it will
be applied.
Note: Portamento will also be switched when CC#65 (Portamento
SW) is received.
On Portamento will be applied.
Off Portamento will not be applied.
Fingered
This parameter specifies whether the portamento effect restarts
or not with each note played.
On Portamento will restart with each note.
Off Portamento will not restart with each note.
Time
This parameter sets the portamento time. Increasing the value
will produce a slower change in pitch.
000…127 Portamento time in MIDI value.
LFO 1/2
LFO1/2 Int
Intensity of the corresponding LFO.
-12…0…+12 Parameter value. Negative values invert the LFO
shape.
Pitch change (level)
Softly played
