General Guide
You can use controllers (pedals, wheels, knobs, and
sliders) to instantly change the pitch and volume of
notes, the envelope, and other parameters as you
perform (page E-34).
• Two targets can be specified for a single controller.
For example, configuring the settings below would
make it possible to change the balance between
layers with a single slider.
Using a Pedal
You can configure a pedal so depressing it sustains a
tone, applies a softening effect, or to change parameters
assigned to the pedal.
• The pedal can be configured so its on/off status
causes gradual increase or decrease of sound
volume. For more information, see “On Rate” and
“Off Rate” (page E-35).
• You can specify the effect applied by selecting the
following in the Stage Setup Editable Parameters:
Pedal1-2 Edit > Ent. See page E-35 for more
information.
Using the Bender Wheel
The 1 (BENDER) wheel can be configured so it
seamlessly raises or lowers the pitch of notes whenever
it is rotated.
• 1 (BENDER) wheel operation can change pitch
only within the bend range.
• You can configure the bend range of the 1
(BENDER) wheel by configuring the following
settings in the Stage Setup Editable Parameters:
“Bend Range Down”, “Bend Range Up” (page E-32).
Using the Modulation Wheel, Knobs and
Sliders
A 2 (MODULATION) wheel, 3 knobs (K1 through
K4 ), and 4 sliders (S1) through 9 (S6) can be used to
adjust volume, effects, the elements that make up
tones, and other factors.
• You can specify the effect assigned to each of these
controllers using the Stage Setup Editable
Parameters shown below. See page E-35 for more
information.
