Mono Portamento
Time Type
Determines how an actual pitch transition time is calculated from the Portamento Time value.
• Fixed Rate: Make the pitch change rate to 0: max., 127: min. The actual pitch transition
time varies according to the interval between the two notes.
• Fixed Time: Make the actual pitch transition time to 0: min., 127: max. The pitch change
rate varies according to the interval between the two notes.
Panel Sustain Determines the sustain level applied to the edited Voice when the [SUSTAIN] button on the panel is turned on.
Kbd Harmony/
Arpeggio
Basically the same as in the display called up via [MENU] [Kbd Harmony/Arp], except that (Setting) is
located at a different position. Refer to the Owner’s Manual and “Making Detailed Settings for Harmony/Arpeg-
gio” on page 44.
Modulation
(+), Modula-
tion (-)
The joystick can be used to modulate the parameters below as well as the pitch (vibrato). Here, you can set the
degree to which the joystick modulates each of the following parameters.
Filter Determines the degree to which the joystick modulates the Filter Cutoff Frequency. For
details about the filter, see below.
Amplitude Determines the degree to which the joystick modulates the amplitude (volume).
LFO Pitch Determines the degree to which the joystick modulates the pitch, or the vibrato effect.
LFO Filter Determines the degree to which the joystick modulates the Filter modulation, or the wah
effect.
LFO Ampli-
tude
Determines the degree to which the joystick modulates the amplitude, or the tremolo effect.
Filter Filter is a processor that changes the timbre or tone of a sound by either blocking or passing a specific frequency
range. The parameters below determine the overall timbre of the sound by boosting or cutting a certain fre-
quency range. In addition to making the sound either brighter or mellower, Filter can be used to produce elec-
tronic, synthesizer-like effects.
Cutoff Determines the cutoff frequency or effective fre-
quency range of the filter (see diagram). Higher
values result in a brighter sound.
Resonance Determines the emphasis given to the cutoff fre-
quency (resonance), set in Cutoff above (see dia-
gram). Higher values result in a more
pronounced effect.
• The basic rule of Portamento Time is unchanged even if this setting is changed. When the value of Portamento
Time is smaller, the actual time is shorter; when the value is larger, the actual time is longer.
• The greater the value of Portamento Time, the clearer the effect of this setting will be.

These frequencies are
“passed” by the filter.
