How to read the Parameter Guide (example) Mode name Page No. Tab No. Tab name Parameter No. PROG 5.3: Ed LFOs Here you can make settings for the LFO that can be used to cyclically modulate the Pitch, Filter, and Amp of oscillators 1 and 2. There are two LFO units for each oscillator. By setting the LFO1 or LFO2 Intensity to a negative ( ) value for Pitch, Filter, or Amp, you can invert the LFO waveform. Utility menu command No : OS1LFO1 (OSC1 LFO1) Indicates settings for the OSC1 LFO1, which is the first LFO that can be used for oscillator 1. Page name 5.3 1a 5.3 1b 5.3 1c 5.3 1d 5.3 1d: UTILITY Write Program (1.1 1c) For details on how to select the desired utility function, refer to PROG 1.1 1c: UTILITY. Swap LFO 1&2 Utilty menu command name This exchanges the settings of LFO 1 and 2. If LFO2 is selected in AMS1 (Freq. AMS1) or AMS2 (Freq. AMS2) of LFO1 Freq.Mod (5.3 1b), the settings will be invalid for LFO2 after LFO1 and 2 have been exchanged. If you select this from the OSC1 LFO1 or OSC1 LFO2 page, LFO1 and LFO2 of OSC1 will be exchanged. 1 Select Swap LFO 1&2 to access the dialog box. 2 To execute, press the [F8] ( OK ) key.

The bank, number, and name of the program will be displayed ( p.2). sets the tempo b: Performance Editor 1.1 2c The Performance Editor lets you edit major program parameters without moving to the PROG Ed (Edit) pages. This edits multiple program parameters within the currently selected program, allowing you to make broad adjustments easily. You can use the Performance Editor when you wish to adjust the depth of effects etc. while you are playing, or to make the initial rough settings to begin the process of creating a new sound. Editing that you do here will affect the values of the program parameters in the edit buffer. If you wish to keep the results of your editing, you must write (save) the program ( BG p.38). Editing done using the Performance Editor will occur within the range of the corresponding parameter. If after using the Performance Editor to modify a value, you move to another page or mode and then return, the sound will remain in its edited state but the value shown in the LCD screen by the Performance Editor will be +00. You may do further editing from this state if you wish. Since editing done using the Performance Editor is not as detailed as conventional editing, the balance between parameters may be lost. If this occurs, use 2.1: Ed-Basic 7.3: Ed-MasterFx to make fine adjustments. If the Exclusive (GLOBAL 2.1 1b) setting is checked, MIDI exclusive parameter changes will be transmitted whenever you operate the Performance Editor. If these messages are received by this instrument whose Exclusive setting is checked, the Performance Editor corresponding to that message will be modified PROG 3

14 Octave [ ] An adjustment of +01 will raise the pitch one octave. An adjustment of 01 will lower the pitch one octave. This setting cannot adjust the pitch higher than 4' (feet) or lower than 32' (feet). Stretch (Pitch Stretch) [ ] This simultaneously adjusts the Transpose and Tune of the oscillator. This lets you produce a variety of tonal changes and variations without loosing the character of the original sound. At the +00 setting, the value of the program parameters will be unchanged. An adjustment of +01 will lower the Transpose value by 1, and simultaneously raise the Tune value by 100. An adjustment of 01 will raise the Transpose value by 1, and simultaneously lower the Tune value by 100. However, it is not possible for the Transpose value to exceed the range of ±12, nor the Tune value to exceed the range of ±1200. This Performance Edit function cannot be used for bank F. OSC Bal (OSC Balance) [ ] This adjusts the level balance between oscillators 1 and 2. At the +00 setting, the value of the program parameters will be unchanged. Positive (+), settings will lower the oscillator 2 level. With an adjustment of +10, the oscillator 2 level will be 0. The oscillator 1 level will not change. Negative ( ) settings will lower the oscillator 1 level. With an adjustment of 10, the oscillator 1 level will be 0. The oscillator 2 level will not change. For programs whose Mode (Oscillator Mode) (2.1 1a) setting is Single, oscillator 2 will not sound. Only the level of oscillator 1 will change. For a Drums program, this performance editor will have no effect. Level (Amp Level) [ ] This adjusts the amp level. With an adjustment of +00, the value of the program parameters will be unchanged. Positive (+) settings will increase the amp level above the value that was set. With an adjustment of +10, the amp level will be 127 (maximum). Negative ( ) settings will lower the amp level below the value that was set. With an adjustment of 10, the amp level will be 0. Attack (Attack Time) [ ] This adjusts the attack times of the filter EG and amp EG. With an adjustment of +00, the value of the program parameters will be unchanged. Positive (+) settings will lengthen the attack times beyond the values that were set. With an adjustment of +10, the attack times will be 90. Negative ( ) settings will shorten the attack times. With an adjustment of 10, the attack times will be 0. Decay (Decay Time) [ ] This adjusts the Decay Time and Slope Time of the filter EG and amp EG. With an adjustment of +00, the value of the program parameters will be unchanged. Positive (+) settings will lengthen the Decay Time and Slope Time beyond the values that were set. With an adjustment of +10, the times will be 99. Negative ( ) settings will shorten the Decay Time and Slope Time. With an adjustment of 10, the times will be 0. IFX Bal (IFX Balance) [ ] This adjusts the W/D(Wet/Dry) setting of insertion effects 1 5 as a whole. With an adjustment of +00, the value of the program parameters will be unchanged. Positive (+) settings will raise the Wet levels above the program setting, and lower the Dry levels. With an adjustment of +10, the setting will be Wet. Negative ( ) settings will lower the Wet levels below the program setting, and raise the Dry levels. With an adjustment of 10, the setting will be Dry. MFX Bal (MFX Balance) [ ] This adjusts the master effect Rtn1 (Return1) and Rtn2 (Return2) (7.3 1a) settings as a whole. With an adjustment of +00, the value of the program parameters will be unchanged. Positive (+) settings will raise the return levels above the program setting. With an adjustment of +10, the setting will be 127 (maximum). Negative ( ) settings will lower the return levels below the program setting. With an adjustment of 10, the setting will be 0.

15 1.1 3: KARMA Make KARMA function-related settings that will be used by the program. Here you can select the GE (Generated Effect) used by the KARMA module. Other settings are made in PROG 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4. To turn KARMA function on/off, use the KARMA real-time controls [ON/OFF] key. The state of the KARMA real-time controls [LATCH], [SCENE] key, switches [1]/[2], and knobs [1] [8] and the note settings/velocity of the CHORD TRIGGER [1] [4] keys can be saved independently for each program a 1.1 3a 1.1 3a: KARMA GE Setup The phrases and patterns produced by a KARMA module are generated by a GE (Generated Effect). Based on input note data from the keyboard, the GE creates phrases and patterns using numerous internal parameter settings to control the development of the note data, the rhythm, the chord structure, the velocity etc. MIDI control changes and pitch bend etc. can also be generated in synchronization with the phrase or pattern. In this way you can produce phrases and patterns in which the GE freely varies the tone or pitch. The GE can be selected independently for each KARMA module. In Program mode you can use one KARMA module (module [A]). (In Combination, Sequencer, and Song Play modes, you can use four KARMA modules (modules [A], [B], [C], [D]).) GE Category [00: name...] This shows the category of the GE selected for the KARMA module. You can use the utility menu command Select by Category to select a GE by category. ( p.2, 1.1 3b) GE Select [0000: Arp Model 1 Up/Dn...] Here you can select a GE. You can select from over 1000 different types b If you select a GE when Init K.RTC is On, the KARMA real-time controls knobs [1] [8] will automatically be set to the center (12 o clock) and switches [1]/[2] will be off. For each GE, up to sixteen parameters ideal for controlling the phrase or pattern have been preset. These parameters can be assigned to KARMA real-time controls knobs [1] [8] and switches [1]/[2] and controlled. If this is done, the settings of knobs [1] [8] and switches [1]/ [2] will significantly change the phrase or pattern of the GE. This setting will set knobs [1] [8] to the center, and switches [1]/[2] to the Off position, ensuring that the GE will function in its original preset state. If the GE parameter Asgn (6.3 1(2)(3)(4)a) has been set to Knob1 Knob8SW, SW[1], or SW[2], the GE may not operate in its preset state, depending on the GE that is selected. If this occurs, set the GE parameter Asgn to ---. Also, all KARMA module parameters including the GE parameter Asgn will be initialized when you execute the Initialize KARMA Module utility menu command in the 6.1: Ed-KARMA 6.4: Ed- KARMA-RT pages b: UTILITY Write Program (1.1 1c) For details on how to select the desired utility, refer to PROG 1.1 1c: UTILITY. Select by Category (Select Program by Category/Select by Category: GE) When Program Select (1.1 2a) is selected, you can select programs by category. ( p.2) When GE Select (1.1 3a) is selected, you can select a GE by category. For the procedure, refer to Select by Category ( p.2) PROG (Tempo) [ , EXT] Specifies the tempo at which KARMA will operate. ( p.3) Int K.RTC (KARMA Real-time Controls Use GE s Value) Specifies whether the settings of the KARMA real-time controls knobs [1] [8] and switches [1]/[2] will be initialized when you select a GE. This allows you to hear the original state of the phrase or pattern produced by the GE. Normally you will turn this On when selecting a GE. On (checked): The KARMA real-time controls knobs [1] [8] and switches [1]/[2] will be initialized when a GE is selected. Off (unchecked): The KARMA real-time controls knobs [1] [8] and switches [1]/[2] will not be initialized when a GE is selected. (The state of the knobs and switches will be applied.) Knobs [1] [8] and switches [1]/[2] that are not assigned to GE parameters will not be initialized. ( PROG 6.3 1a Asgn ) 5
