Using the Pads
Here you can make various settings for playing the pads; e.g., the
note number that each pad will send to the sound generator section,
the pad sensitivity, and the aftertouch sensitivity.
1. Press [PAD SETTING].
The Pad Setting screen will appear.
fig.16-003.e
2. Press or to move the cursor to the desired
parameter.
3. Turn the VALUE dial or use [INC] [DEC] to make pad
settings.
You can specify the current sound generator mode (Patch or
Performance) from this screen.
• Pad Part
Specifies the Part that will be played by the pad. This parameter
is available only in Performance mode.
Value: 1–16
* If you make this setting, an indication of “PAD” will appear below the
Part number in the Performance Layer and Mixer screens.
• Patch/Rhythm Set Type
Specifies whether Patch or Rhythm Set settings will be used for
the pad part.
Value: Patch, Rhythm
• Patch/Rhythm Set Group
Specifies the patch or rhythm set group.
Value: USER, PR-A–H, GM, CARD, (XP-A–D)
• Patch/Rhythm Set Number
Selects the patch or rhythm set number.
First, select the pad for which you want to make settings. When you
strike a pad, its parameters will appear. Alternatively, you can move
the cursor to “Pad Number” in the screen, and select the pad you
want to edit.
• Note (Pad Note)
Specifies the note number transmitted by the selected pad.
• Velocity (Pad Velocity)
Specifies the strength of the sound when you strike the pad.
With the “COMMON” setting, the Pad Common Sens (the
overall velocity sensitivity setting for all pads) will be used.
With a setting of “1–127,” the sound generator will be played
with that velocity value.
Value: COMMON, 1–127
Quick Setup
This lets you make basic pad settings. For the greatest efficiency, use
Quick Setup to choose the settings that are closest to what you have
in mind. Then make the necessary changes for each pad.
1. In the Pad Setting screen, press [F7 (Quick Setup)].
The Quick Setup window will appear.
* This won’t work if the Rhythm Pattern function is turned on. In order
to make these settings, you’ll need to press [RHYTHM] to turn off the
Rhythm Pattern function.
2. Move the cursor and make settings.
• Template Set
Value
Note: The sixteen consecutive note numbers starting at
the Base Note will be automatically assigned to
the pads.
Rhythm: The note numbers will be arranged in the most
suitable way for playing a rhythm set.
Multi Velo: “Multi Velocity” is a special setting that assigns
the very same note number to each of the sixteen
pads—but with differing velocities. This is
convenient if you need precise control of the
velocity while you play.
• Base Note (Pad Base Note)
Make this setting if you’ve selected Note or Multi Velo as the
Template Set setting.
If you’ve selected Note, this specifies the location where the
consecutive note numbers will begin (i.e., the lowest note).
If you’ve specified Multi Velo, this specifies the note number
that all pads will play.
Value: C-1–G9
