Playing the Sounds
Try Out Performance Functions
The XP-30 provides various controllers that can modify the sound. While
playing patches, try out these controllers and listen to effects they can
produce.
■ Velocity/Aftertouch
The force with which you play the keyboard (velocity) can affect the volume
or timbre of the sound. Aftertouch (pressure you apply to a key after playing
a note) can also affect the sound.
■ Pitch Bend/Modulation Lever
While playing the keyboard, move the lever to the left to lower the pitch, or
to the right to raise the pitch. This is known as Pitch Bend. You can also
apply vibrato by manipulating the lever away from you. This is known as
Modulation.
If you move the lever away from you and at the same time move it to the
right or left, you can apply both effects simultaneously.
fig.Q-22.e
■ C1–C4 Slider
By moving the sliders up and down while fingering the keyboard, you can
control the various functions assigned to the sliders.
To control them, press [CONTROLLER] to make the indicators light up,
then move the sliders.
Additionally, if you hold down [CONTROLLER] while moving one of the
C1–C4 sliders, you can go to the ASSIGN display for that slider. There you
can check and make settings for the function that is to be controlled with the
slider. Make changes in the settings while holding down [CONTROLLER].
fig.Q-23
The effect that the
controllers have will
depend on the settings of
the selected Patch. If the
effects of the controllers are
difficult to detect, select
another Patch.
Pitch Bend
Modulation
How sound varies depends
on the current setting. For
details, refer to “C1/C2/
C3/C4 ASSIGN (C1/C2/
C3/C4 Slider Assign)”
(p. 111).
At the factory default
settings, you can use the C1
through C4 sliders to
control the functions
described below.
C1: AFTERTAUCH
C2: BREATH
C3: PORTA-TIME
(Portamento time)
C4: MODULATION
