Quick Guide Editing a Program Editing a Voice TIP Editing a Voice by using the Knobs The four knobs at the top left of the instrument are not only for tweaking the sound while you perform-you can also use them to edit a Voice, either in the Voice Play mode or the Voice Edit mode. ● When the [PAN/SEND] indicator is turned on: PAN Determines the stereo pan position of the Voice. REVERB Determines the amount of Reverb effect that is applied to the Voice. CHORUS Determines the amount of Chorus effect that is applied to the Voice. TEMPO Determines the tempo of the Arpeggio assigned to the currently selected Voice.

RESONANCE Boosts or attenuates the level at the area around the Filter cutoff frequency. ATTACK RELEASE Determines the attack time of the sound. For example, you can adjust a strings Voice so that the sound gradually swells in volume by setting a slow attack time - simply turn this knob to the right. Determines the release time of the sound. Turning the knob to the right sets a long release time and (depending on the selected Voice) lets the sound sustain after the key is released. To produce a sharp release, in which the sound abruptly cuts off, set a short release time.

The particular parameters assigned to the four knobs can be set in the [UTILITY] → [F4] CTL ASN → [SF5] MEF display. TIP Editing a Voice by using the Control sliders [VOICE] ➞ Voice selection ➞ [EDIT] ➞ Element selection ➞ [F4] AMP ➞ [SF1] LVL/PAN ➞ Level In the Voice mode, the four Control sliders let you independently adjust the levels of the Elements of a Normal Voice or the Drum Voice keys. When a Normal Voice is selected, you can adjust the level balance among the four Elements. n Inadvertent use of the sliders may result in no sound. If this occurs, move the sliders upward. 56 Owner's Manual
