5.3 TONE MODIFY

The MP5 allows certain characteristics of the sounds to be custom tailored to
suit a particular musical or playing style, or to create many variations and
different types of sounds. TONE MODIFY settings can be done for each zone
individually.
The following parameters are provided:

CUTOFF, ATTACK, DECAY and RELEASE.

Make sure that the TONE MODIFY button in the CONTROL KNOBS section is lit.
If the TONE MODIFY button is turned off, press it to turn it ON.

The CONTROL KNOBS are now active and assigned to the Tone Modify
parameters for the current sound.
Use the CONTROL KNOBS to change the current settings for the selected zone.
Each parameter of the TONE MODIFY function has an adjustable range from
-50 to +50.

5.2 EQ (EQUALIZER)

The MP5 contains a four-band graphic equalizer to shape the overall tone of
the sound. The EQ affects all zones at the same time. However, each SETUP
can have its own EQ setting that affects the internal sounds only.

Be sure that the EQ button in the CONTROL KNOBS section is lit.
If the EQ button is turned off, press it to turn it ON.

The CONTROL KNOBS are now active and assigned to the EQ parameters. Use
the CONTROL KNOBS to change the current settings.
Each parameter of the EQ has an adjustable range from -12 to +12. A positive
(+) value indicates amplification, or a boost of that frequency range. A negative
(-) value indicates attenuation, or a cut of that frequency range.

Quick Change EQ Offset

Press and hold the EQ button. The EQ button starts blinking and the following
screen for EQ Offset (see page47) will be shown until the button is released.

This parameter is stored automatically when leaving the screen, there is no
need to store the setting manually.

If EQ Offset is set to Off in System parameters, this page will not be displayed.
