Creating a Patch
FXM Depth ★
Specifies the depth of the modulation produced by FXM.
Value: 0–16
Tempo Sync (Wave Tempo Sync)
When you wish to synchronize a Phrase Loop to the clock (tempo),
set this to “ON.” This is valid only when an optional Wave
Expansion Board, such as “SR-JV80-10: BASS&DRUMS,” is installed,
and you have selected a tone which uses a waveform that displays
tempo (BPM).
Value: OFF, ON
• When the Tempo Sync parameter is set to “ON,” settings related
to Pitch (p. 60) and FXM (p. 59) are disabled.
• When the Tempo Sync parameter is set to “ON,” set the Delay
Time parameter (PATCH/General) to “0.” With other settings, a
delay effect will be applied, and you will be not be able to play
as you expect.
Modifying Pitch (Pitch)
fig.03-16_50
For details on the setting, refer to “How to Make the Patch
Settings” (p. 42).
Pitch
Patch C Tune (Patch Coarse Tune) ★
Adjusts the pitch of the patch’s sound up or down in semitone steps
(+/-4 octaves).
Value: -48– +48
Patch F Tune (Patch Fine Tune)
Adjusts the pitch of the patch’s sound up or down in 1-cent steps (+/
-50 cents).
Value: -50– +50
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
Octave Shift
Adjusts the pitch of the patch’s sound up or down in units of an
octave (+/-3 octaves).
Value: -3– +3
Stretch Tune (Stretch Tune Depth)
This setting allows you to apply “stretched tuning” to the patch.
(Stretched tuning is a system by which acoustic pianos are normally
tuned, causing the lower range to be lower and the higher range to
be higher than the mathematical tuning ratios would otherwise
dictate.) With a setting of “OFF,” the patch’s tuning will be equal
temperament. A setting of “3” will produce the greatest difference in
the pitch of the low and high ranges.
Value: OFF, 1–3
The diagram shows the pitch change relative to equal temperament
that will occur in the low and high ranges. This setting will have a
subtle effect on the way in which chords resonate.

Tone C Tune (Tone Coarse Tune) ★
Adjusts the pitch of the tone’s sound up or down in semitone steps
(+/-4 octaves).
Value: -48– +48
Tone F Tune (Tone Fine Tune) ★
Adjusts the pitch of the tone’s sound up or down in 1-cent steps (+/-
50 cents).
Value: -50– +50
One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
Phrase Loop
Phrase loop refers to the repeated playback of a phrase that’s
been pulled out of a song (e.g., by using a sampler). One
technique involving the use of Phrase Loops is the excerpting of
a Phrase from a pre-existing song in a certain genre, for example
dance music, and then creating a new song with that Phrase
used as the basic motif. This is referred to as “Break Beats.”
