Sound & Parameter List - Roland

Rhythm editing parametersWaveThese parameters select the PCM waveform that is to form the basis of the rhythm tone, and apply effects to the waveform.Parameter Value DescriptionWave Group INT, USER,CARDGroup of the waveform upon which the rhythm tone is to be basedINT: Waveforms stored in internal memoryUSER: User sample waveformsCARD: Card sample waveformsWave No. L/MONO 0 (OFF)–**** Waveform upon which the tone is to be basedWave No. R* Depends on thewave group.On the MC-808 you can specify a separate waveform for the L and R channels.* If you want to use the same waveform for the L and R channels, set the R channel to 0 (OFF).Wave Gain -6, 0, +6, +12 dB Waveform gain (amplitude)The value will change in steps of 6 dB (decibels). An increase of 6 dB will double the gain. If youwant to use the booster to distort the sound, it is effective to set this to the maximum.FXM (Frequency Cross Modulation)FXM creates a complex overtone structure by using a specific waveform to frequency-modulate the selected waveform. This is suitable for creatingextreme sounds or sound effects.Wave FXM SW(Wave FXM Switch)OFF, ON Selects whether FXM will be used (ON) or not (OFF)Wave FXM Color(Wave FXM Color)Wave FXM Depth(Wave FXM Depth)Pitch1–4 Selects how FXM will apply frequency modulation.Increasing this value will produce a rougher sound. Decreasing this value will produce a moremetallic sound.0–16 Depth of frequency modulation applied by FXMThese parameters specify the pitch of the waveform.Parameter Value DescriptionCoarse Tune(Rhythm ToneCoarse Tune)0 (C-1)–127(G9)Basic pitch at which the Rhythm tone will playFine Tune(Rhythm Tone FineTune)Random Pitch(Random pitchdepth)-50– +50 Pitch of the Rhythm toneAdjusts the pitch in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) over a range of 1/2 semitone upward ordownward.0–1200 This specifies the width of random pitch deviation that will occur each time a pad is pressed. If youdon’t want random pitch changes, set it to 0. The parameter can be adjusted in units of 1 cent (1/100thof a semitone).Wave Coarse Tune -48– +48 Pitch of the WaveAdjusts the pitch in semitone steps over a range of +/-4 octaves.Wave Fine Tune -50– +50 Pitch of the WaveAdjusts the pitch in one-cent steps (1/100th of a semitone) over a range of 1/2 semitone upward ordownward.Pitch Env (Pitch Envelope)These parameters specify the depth of the pitch envelope (the way in which pitch will change over time) and the shape of the envelope itself.T1 T2 T3 T4L1L0L3PitchTimekey ispressedL2key isreleasedL457
