Port (Portamento)<br />

Settings related to the Portamento effect of each part.<br />

The following three parameters are available.<br />

■ Port Sw (Portamento Switch)<br />

Turns the portamento”on” and “off.” Portamento<br />

creates a smooth glide in pitch from one note to the<br />

next.<br />

❏ Settings: off, on<br />

■ Port Time (Portamento Time)<br />

Sets the time of the pitch glide between successively<br />

played notes. Higher settings result in a longer<br />

(slower) glide.<br />

❏ Settings: 0~127<br />

■ Port Mode (Portamento Mode)<br />

Selects the Portamento mode. The way the<br />

Portamento moves will differ depending on whether<br />

the Mono or Poly setting (page 165) in the MIX<br />

screen is selected.<br />

❏ Settings: fngr (fingered), full<br />

When “Mono” is selected in the Mix menu:<br />

fngr (fingered): Fingered portamento is applied only<br />

when you play legato (playing a note before releasing the<br />

previous one).<br />

full: Portamento is always applied.<br />

When “Poly” is selected in the Mix menu:<br />

Same as for the mono (monophonic) mode except that<br />

portamento is applied to multiple notes.<br />

[F7]: CTRL (Controllers)<br />

A variety of control functions can be assigned<br />

beforehand to a controller such as the CONTROL<br />

Knobs on the front panel or the keyboard. For example,<br />

aftertouch of the keyboard can be assigned to control<br />

vibrato or the [MODULATION] wheel can be assigned<br />

to apply resonance. The control functions can be<br />

assigned to affect a specific element in a voice for each<br />

part. The assignment of controls to a voice is called<br />

voice control, and a maximum of 16 different types of<br />

voice controls can be assigned to one voice.<br />

Excluding the master keyboard settings, the voice control<br />

settings made here are the same as those explained in SET<br />

(Controller Set) menu in Voice Edit (see page 104). Only<br />

the content sections that differ from the SET will be<br />

explained below.<br />

169<br />

■ Part<br />

■ Bank (Voice Bank)<br />

■ Number<br />

These parameters are the same as those explained in<br />

the MIX screen. See page 164.<br />

■ Trns Sw (Transmission Switch)<br />

Selects the necessary controllers to perform as a<br />

master keyboard in Performance mode. Set the<br />

controllers that you want to use to “on.” There are<br />

16 types of controllers, and you can select whether<br />

or not to output.<br />

❏ Settings: PB (Pitch Bend Wheel), FV (Foot Volume), FS<br />

(Foot Switch), Sus (Sustain), AT (After Touch),<br />

FC (Foot Controller), BC (Breath Controller), RB<br />

(Ribbon Controller), MW1 (Modulation Wheel<br />

1), MW2 (Modulation Wheel 2), KN1~6<br />

(Knobs1-6); for each controller, on, off<br />

■ Pitch Bend Upper<br />

Sets the degree of pitch change in semitones (half<br />

steps) when the [PITCH] wheel is moved in an<br />

upwards direction. For example, a value of +12<br />

means that when the [PITCH] wheel is moved<br />

upwards, the pitch can be raised to a maximum of<br />

one octave.<br />

❏ Settings: –48~0~+24<br />

■ Pitch Bend Lower<br />

Sets the degree of pitch change in semitones (half<br />

steps) when the [PITCH] wheel is moved in a<br />

downwards direction. For example, a value of –12<br />

means that when the [PITCH] wheel is moved<br />

downwards, you can lower the pitch a maximum of<br />

one octave.<br />

❏ Settings: –48~0~+24<br />
