78 DeepMind 12 User Manual • PORTA-OSC-BAL - This option allows you to balance the application of PORTA-TIME (the slide time between played notes) between OSC1 and OSC2. When a positive setting is chosen, the OSC 1 PORTA-TIME will decrease. At its maximum value (127), the OSC 1 PORTA-TIME will be zero, and the pitch change will happen immediately (no sliding). When a negative setting is chosen, the OSC 2 PORTA-TIME will decrease. At its minimum value (-127) the OSC 2 PORTA-TIME will be zero, and the pitch change will happen immediately (no sliding). Start Pitch PORTAMENTO BALANCE PORTA-BAL 0 OSC 1 and OSC 2 PITCH (Hz) Stop Pitch Start Pitch TIME (seconds) PORTA-BAL +VE 8.4.5 CHAIN PARAMETERS MENU Use the POLY EDIT switch to access the CHAIN PARAMETERS menu. This menu is used to set up a POLY CHAIN, a system where multiple DeepMind 12, DeepMind 12, and DeepMind 6 synthesizers can be connected together, enabling more than 12-Voice Polyphony. This menu can also be used to set up a KEYBOARD SPLIT if you have two or more DeepMind units. A single DeepMind 12 unit has a maximum of 12 voices that can play at any one time (12-Voice Polyphony). If further voices are attempted than are available, then information is lost. (How this is handled for a single unit, is described in the PRIORITY section of the VOICE PARAMETERS menu. In order to increase the number of voices that can play at any one time, you can add additional DeepMind synthesizers into your system and set up a POLY CHAIN using the CHAIN PARAMETERS page of the POLY EDIT menu. Note: If you are just using one DeepMind unit, then there is no need to use this menu, although it is a good idea to know its details, as the chosen settings will affect normal operation, and it may give you ideas for future expansion.

Press the POLY EDIT switch and it will start flashing, and the VOICE PARAMETERS menu will appear. 2. Press the EDIT switch twice more to show the CHAIN PARAMETERS menu: PITCH (Hz) Stop Pitch TIME (seconds) The PORTA-OSC-BAL parameter ranges from -128 to 127, and the default setting is 0. • P.BEND RANGE+ - This option allows you to set the upper limit of the PITCH WHEEL. The pitch bend depth parameters are bi-polar. The P.BEND RANGE+ parameter can be varied from -24 to +24 (notes). The default P.BEND RANGE+ setting is +2 (notes). • P.BEND RANGE- - This option allows you to set the lower limit of the PITCH WHEEL. The pitch bend depth parameters are bi-polar, so moving the pitch wheel downwards can be made to pitch the voices up, for example by a different depth to the positive depth. The P.BEND RANGE- parameter can be varied from -24 to +24 (notes). The default P.BEND RANGE- setting is -2 (notes). • GLOBAL-TUNE - This option allows you to adjust the GLOBAL TUNING for the synthesizer. The range is -128 to 127. CAUTION: If you ever suspect that your DeepMind 12 seems to be out of tune, it is a good idea to check that the GLOBAL-TUNE is set to 0. 5. To exit the PITCH PARAMETERS menu, press the PROG switch to return to the main display, or press the POLY EDIT switch again to enter the CHAIN PARAMETERS menu. 3. To navigate the options in the CHAIN PARAMETERS menu, use the BANK/UP or BANK/DOWN switches. 4. Selected parameters are adjusted using the -/NO or +/YES switches, the rotary knob or the DATA ENTRY fader. The rotary knob has a click which allows very accurate control. The fader allows rapid adjustment across the full range. The following options are available in this menu. (Further details and examples of the actual operation are shown later in this section.) • POLY-CHAIN - Select ON if you are using more than one DeepMind synthesizer and you would like to set up a POLY CHAIN. • PROGRAM LINK - Select ON if you want the other DeepMind units in the POLY CHAIN to automatically change to the same program as playing in the first DeepMind unit. This option is only available when POLY CHAIN is ON. • KEY RANGE - Select ON if you have two DeepMind synthesizers and would like to set up a KEYBOARD SPLIT. One DeepMind can operate one side of the keyboard, and the other DeepMind can control the other side. Each side of the split can have its own program.

DeepMind 12 User Manual
PORTA-OSC-BAL
- This option allows you to balance the application of
PORTA-TIME (the slide time between played notes) between OSC1 and OSC2.
When a positive setting is chosen, the OSC 1 PORTA-TIME will decrease.
At
its maximum value (127), the OSC 1 PORTA-TIME will be zero, and the pitch
change will happen immediately (no sliding).
When a negative setting is chosen, the OSC 2 PORTA-TIME will decrease. At
its minimum value (-127) the OSC 2 PORTA-TIME will be zero, and the pitch
change will happen immediately (no sliding).
The PORTA-OSC-BAL parameter ranges from -128 to 127, and the default
setting is 0.
P.BEND RANGE+
- This option allows you to set the upper limit of the PITCH
WHEEL. The pitch bend depth parameters are bi-polar.
The P.BEND RANGE+ parameter can be varied from -24 to +24 (notes). The
default P.BEND RANGE+ setting is +2 (notes).
P.BEND RANGE-
- This option allows you to set the lower limit of the PITCH
WHEEL. The pitch bend depth parameters are bi-polar, so moving the pitch
wheel downwards can be made to pitch the voices up, for example by a
different depth to the positive depth.
The P.BEND RANGE- parameter can be varied from -24 to +24 (notes). The
default P.BEND RANGE- setting is -2 (notes).
GLOBAL-TUNE
- This option allows you to adjust the GLOBAL TUNING for the
synthesizer. The range is -128 to 127.
CAUTION:
If you ever suspect that your DeepMind 12 seems to be out of
tune, it is a good idea to check that the GLOBAL-TUNE is set to 0.
