Reference Voice mode ● [F5]-[SF1] Normal Common LFO Wave Basic Structure (page 47) From this display you can make a variety of LFOrelated settings, including Wave, Speed, Tempo, and sync/phase settings. • Wave Determines the LFO Wave. ❏ Settings tri, tri+, sawup, sawdwn, squ1/4, squ1/3, squ, squ2/3, squ3/4, trpzp, S/H 1, S/H 2, user • Speed Determines the speed of the LFO Wave modulation. Higher values result in faster modulation speeds. ❏ Settings 0 ~ 63 Speed = fast Speed = slow Time Time • Tempo Sync Determines whether or not the LFO is synchronized to the tempo of the Arpeggio or sequencer (song or pattern). Setting this to "on" allows you to keep the LFO effects in perfect sync with the Arpeggio or sequencer playback. ❏ Settings off (not synchronized), on (synchronized) • Tempo Speed This parameter is available only when Tempo Sync above has been set to "on." It allows you to make detailed note value settings that determine how the LFO pulses in sync with the Arpeggio or sequencer. ❏ Settings 16th, 8th/3 (eighth-note triplets), 16th. (dotted sixteenth notes), 8th 4th/3 (quarternote triplets), 8th. (dotted eighth notes), 4th (quarter notes), 2nd/3 (half-note triplets), 4th. (dotted quarter notes), 2nd (half notes), whole/3 (whole-note triplets), 2nd. (dotted half notes), 4th x 4 (quarter-note quadruplets; four quarter notes to the beat), 4th x 5 (quarter-note quintuplets; five quarter notes to the beat), 4th x 6 (quarter-note sextuplets; six quarter notes to the beat), 4th x 7 (quarter-note septuplets; seven quarter notes to the beat), 4th x 8 (quarter-note octuplets; eight quarter notes to the beat) n The actual length of the note depends on the internal or external MIDI tempo setting. • Key On Reset Determines whether or not the LFO is reset each time a note is pressed. The following three settings are available. ❏ Settings off, each-on, 1st-on Voice Edit mode off The LFO cycles freely with no key synchronization. Pressing a key starts the LFO wave at whatever phase the LFO happens to be at that point. Time Key on each-on The LFO resets with each note you play and starts a waveform at the phase specified by the Phase parameter (below). Time Key on (first note) Key on (second note) 1st-on The LFO resets with every note you play and starts the waveform at the phase specified by the Phase parameter (below). However, if you play a second note while the first is being held, the LFO continues cycling according to the same phase as triggered by the first note. In other words, the LFO only resets if the first note is released before the second is played. . Time Key on (first note) Key on (second note) • Phase Determines the starting phase point for the LFO Wave when a note is played. ❏ Settings 0, 90, 120, 180, 240, 270 Phase 0° 90° 180° 270° 120° 240° Time MOTIF Reference 135
