Performance Song/Pattern File Utility Remote Utility In the Utility display, you can set parameters that apply to the entire system of the MX49/MX61. To return to the Performance display after making settings, press [EXIT]. Operation Press [UTILITY]  Select desired display for editing by using the Cursor [V]/[E] buttons  Press [ENTER]  Edit parameters in selected display General Parameter MasterVolume Note Shift Tune (Master tune) DirectMonitor (Direct monitor switch) DAW Level WAV Volume Octave (Octave shift) Transpose VelCurve (Velocity Curve) FixedVelocity LCD Contrast Description Determines the overall volume of the instrument. Settings: 0 - 127 Determines the amount (in semitones) by which the pitch of all notes is shifted. Settings: -24 - +0 - +24 Determines the fine tuning of the MX49/MX61's overall sound (in 0.1 cent steps). Settings: -102.4 (414.7Hz) - +0.0 (440.0Hz) - +102.3 (466.8Hz) NOTE The frequency of the basic pitch (note A3) is 440 Hz. An increase of 3 or 4 cents corresponds to a frequency increase of about 1 Hz. When using this instrument with a computer, this determines whether the audio signal of this instrument is output or not to the OUTPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jacks and [PHONES] jack (Direct Monitoring). If you wish to hear only the sound which is looped back from the computer via the USB [TO HOST] terminal, set this parameter to off. You can use this setting when you want to apply a VST plug-in effect (on the computer) to the sound of the instrument. Settings: off, on Adjusts the volume of the audio data from the USB [TO HOST] terminal. Settings: 0 - 127 Adjusts the volume of the audio data of the USB flash memory. This parameter is linked to the same parameter of the Song display (page 58). Settings: 0 - 127 Determines the amount in octaves by which the range of the keyboard is shifted up or down. This parameter is linked with the OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons on the panel. Settings: -3 - +0 - +3 Determines the amount in semitones by which the range of the keyboard is shifted up or down. Settings: -11 - +0 - +11 NOTE If you transpose beyond the note range limits (C -2 and G8), notes in the adjacent octaves will be used. Determines how the actual velocity will be generated and transmitted according to the velocity (strength) with which you play notes on the keyboard. Settings: norm, soft, hard, wide, fixed norm (normal) .. This linear "curve" produces one-to-one correspondence between the strength of your keyboard playing (velocity) and the actual sound change. soft This curve provides increased response, especially for lower velocities. hard This curve effectively lessens the overall response in comparison to the "norm" curve. wide This curve accentuates your playing strength by producing lower velocities in response to softer playing and louder velocities in response to harder playing. As such, this setting effectively expands the dynamic range. fixed This setting produces the same amount of sound change (set in "FixedVelocity" below), no matter what your playing strength. The velocity of the notes you play are fixed at the value set here. Determines the velocity value for the "fixed" Velocity Curve setting above. This can be used to send a fixed velocity to the tone generator regardless of how hard or soft you play the keyboard. This parameter is only available if you set Velocity Curve above to "fixed." Settings: 1 - 127 Adjusts the LCD contrast. Settings: 1 - 8 NOTE You can also adjust the LCD contrast by holding down [UTILITY] and pressing [INC/YES]/[DEC/NO].
