Voices

This section covers the keyboard part settings and other Voice related settings which

can be set on the display called up via [MENU]  [Voice Setting].

Tune

Lets you adjust the pitch related parameters for each keyboard part.

Voice Set Filter

Each Voice is linked to its default Voice Set parameter settings, equivalent to those in the Voice Edit display (page 48)

for the Voices other than the Organ Flutes Voices. Although usually these settings are automatically called up by

selecting a Voice, you can also disable this feature. For example, if you want to change the Voice yet keep the same

Harmony effect, remove the checkmark of “Keyboard Harmony/Arpeggio.”

S.Art2/Arpeggio

S.Art2 Auto Articulation

Determines whether articulation is added to S.Art2 Voices automatically for these

respective key timings:

• Head: When the first key is pressed.

• Joint: When the key is pressed or released while holding down other key(s).

• Tail: When the last key is released.

Arpeggio

Keyboard Part-related Settings (Voice Setting)

The display can also be called up from

[Menu] on the Voice Selection display.

NOTE

Tuning Determines the pitch of each keyboard part.

Octave Determines the range of the pitch change in octaves, over two octaves up or down for each key-

board part.

Portamento Time Portamento is a function that creates a smooth transition in pitch from the first note played on the

keyboard to the next. The Portamento Time determines the pitch transition time. Higher values

result in a longer pitch change time. Setting this to “0” results in no effect. This parameter is avail-

able for keyboard parts which are set to “Mono” (page 49).

This affects not only S.Art2 Voices of

your keyboard performance, but also the

S.Art2 Voices in Songs or Styles.

NOTE

Quantize Determines the timing of the Arpeggio Quantize function. Arpeggio playback is synchronized with

Song or Style playback, and any slight imperfections are corrected in this timing.

Hold Turns on or off the Arpeggio Hold function. When this is set to “On”, turning the [HARMONY/

ARPEGGIO] button on makes Arpeggio playback continue even after the note has been released.

To stop playback, press the [HARMONY/ARPEGGIO] button again.
