Controlling Pitch

Pitch Bend

Pitch bend smoothly changes the pitch upward or downward,

similar to how a guitarist can “bend” strings. On the

KROSS, you can use the pitch bend wheel to control this in

real time.

The amount of pitch change applied when you move the

pitch bend wheel fully toward yourself or fully away from

yourself is specified in semitone steps by the Bend(+) and

Bend(–) settings. For example if Bend(+) is set to +12,

moving the pitch bend wheel fully away from yourself will

make the pitch rise one octave.

Note: This can also be controlled via MIDI or by using a

controller other than the pitch bend wheel.

Ribbon (#16) specifies the amount of pitch change (in

semitone units) that will occur when MIDI control

change message #16 is received. With a setting of +12,

a value of 127 will raise the pitch one octave, and a

value of 0 will lower the pitch one octave.

Creating Vibrato

You can use an LFO to create vibrato.

LFO1 and LFO2 Intensity specify how deeply the selected

LFO will affect the pitch. With a setting of +12.00, vibrato

will vary the pitch in a range of one octave upward and

downward.

M.Whl-Int specifies the amount of vibrato that will be

produced by the LFO when the modulation wheel is moved

fully away from you.

AMS Intensity specifies the depth of vibrato that will be

applied by the LFO when modulated by the selected AMS

(Alternate Modulation Source). For example, suppose that in

the P-INPUT/CTRL>CONTROLLERS page, you set SW1

to SW1 Mod.:#80, set LFO1 AMS to SW1:#80, and set

“Intensity” to an appropriate value; when you now turn on

SW1 or receive MIDI control change CC#80, vibrato will be

applied.

Pitch EG

When the Intensity value is set to +12.00, the pitch EG

specified in the Pitch EG page will produce a maximum of

±1 octave of pitch change.

To realistically simulate the slight change in pitch that

occurs when a string is plucked or at the attack of a brass or

vocal sound, you can use the EG to create a subtle change in

pitch at the attack.

Portamento

Portamento makes the pitch change smoothly when you play

the next note before releasing the previous note.

The Time parameter controls how long it will take the pitch

to change. As this value is increased, the pitch will change

over a longer time. With a value of 000, there will be no

portamento.

You can turn Portamento on and off via SW1 or SW2, by

assigning them to Porta. SW: #65.

During last night's gig, my Kross 2 started changing "Favorites" - one after the other - switching through the banks and sounds, while I was playing. What could cause that. It didn't do it all the time, just every now and then at random. Submitted on 4-9-2022 at 00:59
