Creating a Rhythm Set

Parameter Group [F5 (TVA)] Adjusting the Volume (TVA/TVA Envelope) [F1 (TVA PRM)]
Parameter Tone Level Level V-Curve Value 0�127 FIX, 1�7 Explanation Volume of the tone This setting is useful primarily for adjusting the volume balance between tones. Curve that determines how keyboard playing dynamics (velocity) will affect the volume Set this to �FIX� if you don�t want the volume of the tone to be affected by the keyboard velocity.

Set this when you want the volume of the tone to change depending on keyboard playing dynamics. Set this to a positive (+) value to have the changes in tone volume increase the more forcefully the keys are played; to make the tone play more softly as you play harder, set this to a negative (-) value. Left/right position of the tone Use this parameter when you want the stereo location to change randomly each time you press a key. Higher settings will produce a greater amount of change. This setting causes panning to be alternated between left and right each time a key is pressed. Higher settings will produce a greater amount of change. �L� or �R� settings will reverse the order in which the pan will alternate between left and right. For example if two rhythm tones are set to �L� and �R� respectively, the panning of the two rhythm tones will alternate each time they are played.

[F2 (TVA ENV)]
Parameter A-Env T1 V-Sens Value -63� +63 Explanation This allows keyboard dynamics to affect the T1 of the TVA envelope. If you want Time 1 to be speeded up for strongly played notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed down, set this to a negative (-) value. Use this parameter when you want key release speed to affect the T4 value of the TVA envelope. If you want T4 to be speeded up for quickly released notes, set this parameter to a positive (+) value. If you want it to be slowed down, set this to a negative (-) value. TVA envelope times (T1�T4) Higher settings will lengthen the time until the next volume level is reached. TVA envelope levels (L1�L3) Specify how the volume will change at each point, relative to the Tone Level value.
