40 PSR-SX600 Owner’s Manual
Use the [PITCH BEND] wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from you) or
down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard. The Pitch Bend is
applied to all the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1, 2 and LEFT). The [PITCH BEND]
wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch when released.
The [PITCH BEND] wheel lets you bend the notes up or down like bending a guitar
string, or create ornamental phrasings by bending a semitone down at the beginning
of a phrase — giving you a performance tool for creating very realistic musical
expressions, as if you are playing an actual stringed or wind instrument.
The maximum pitch bend range can be changed on the Controller display:
[MENU] → TAB [ E] Menu1 → Cursor buttons [][][E][F] Controller →
[ENTER] → TAB [F] Setting → Cursor buttons [][] 3 Pitch Bend Range.
The Modulation function applies a vibrato effect to notes played on the keyboard. By
default, this is applied to the keyboard parts (RIGHT 1, 2 and LEFT). Moving the
[MODULATION] wheel up (away from you) increases the depth of the effect, while
moving it down (toward you) decreases it.
You can set whether the effects caused by the [MODULATION] wheel will be
applied or not to each of the keyboard part: [MENU] → TAB [E] Menu1 → Cursor
buttons [][][E][F] Controller → [ENTER] → TAB [F] Setting → Cursor
buttons [][] 2 Modulation Wheel.
Setting this allows you to not only control the vibrato effect, but also a variety of
other effects.
For more information, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
Using the Wheels
Using the Pitch Bend Wheel
NOTE
The effects produced by using the
[PITCH BEND] wheel may not be
applied to the LEFT part during Style
playback, depending on the Style set-
ting.
Using the Modulation Wheel
NOTE
To avoid accidentally applying modu-
lation, make sure the [MODULATION]
wheel is set at minimum (down) posi-
tion before you start playing.
NOTE
The effects produced by using the
[MODULATION] wheel may not be
applied to the LEFT part during Style
playback depending on the Style set-
ting.
NOTE
Depending on the selected Voice, the
[MODULATION] wheel may control
volume, filter or some other parameter
instead of vibrato. For changing these
parameters, refer to the Reference
Manual on the website.
When modulation is applied to
the pitch
You can control a vibrato effect (that is produced by regularly
modulating the pitch of the Voice).
When modulation is applied to
the filter
You can control a wah effect (that is produced by regularly
modulating the tonal qualities of the Voice).
When modulation is applied to
the amplitude
You can control a tremolo effect (that is produced by regularly
modulating the volume of the Voice).
