Creating a Patch
PATCH STRUCTURE
PORTAMENTO START PITCH, NOTE Portamento begins anew if you press another key during a pitch movement.
This setting specifies how the new portamento starts.
PITCH: The pitch begins changing immediately to the new note’s pitch when
its key is pressed.
NOTE: The pitch begins changing to the new note’s pitch only after it has
first reached its original pitch destination.
PORTAMENTO TIME 0–127 Sets the time over which one pitch glides to the next.
Parameter Value Description
TYPE
(Structure Type 1&2, 3&4)
1–10
Determines how Tone 1 and 2, and Tone 3 and 4
are connected.
* If Type 2–10 is selected, turning off one Tone will
cause the other Tone to be connected in the simple or-
der of WG/TVF/TVA.
The displayed symbols have the following mean-
ings.
B: Booster, R: Ring Modulator
[What is a Booster?]
A Booster amplifies the incoming signal, causing it
to distort. This creates an effect similar to the dis-
tortion often used on an electric guitar.
[What is a Ring Modulator?]
A Ring Modulator mathematically multiplies two
Tones, creating a new sound that includes inhar-
monic overtones that were not present in either of
the two original Tones.
Since the difference in pitch between the two
Tones changes the overtone structure, an un-
pitched “metallic” sound often results. Ring mod-
ulation is therefore especially suitable for creating
bells and other metallic sounds.
BOOSTER
(Booster Gain 1&2, 3&4) 0, +6, +12, +18 dB Sets the Booster strength when Structure Type has
been set to 3 or 4.
