Functional Blocks

The MODX6/MODX7/MODX8 system consists of eight main functional blocks: Tone Generator, A/D Input,

Sequencer, Motion Sequencer, Arpeggio, Controller, Effect, and Envelope Follower.

AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory 2)

This instrument is equipped with an AWM2 tone generator block. AWM2 (Advanced Wave Memory 2)

is a synthesis system based on sampled waves (sound material), and is used in many Yamaha

synthesizers. For extra realism, each AWM2 Voice uses multiple samples of a real instrument’s

waveform. Furthermore, a wide variety of parameters—envelope generator, filter, modulation, and

others—can be applied.

Tone Generator Block

The tone generator block is what actually produces sound in response to the MIDI messages received

from the Sequencer block, Controller block, Arpeggio block and from the external MIDI instrument. The

MIDI messages are assigned to sixteen independent channels, and the instrument is capable of

simultaneously playing sixteen separate Parts, via the sixteen MIDI channels. However, the sixteen-

channel limit can be overcome by using separate MIDI “ports,” each supporting sixteen channels. The

tone generator block of this instrument can handle MIDI messages over Port 1.

Tone Generator block

A Performance is a single set of sounds consisting of multiple Parts. You can change sounds as desired by

selecting the appropriate Performance. Each Performance has two types of parameters; parameters

unique to each Part and parameters common to all Parts. You can edit the entire Performance in the

Common/Audio Edit display (page 159).

A Performance consists of 16 Parts and you can create Performances (in which multiple Parts or Parts are

combined—in a layer, or in other configurations) using the keyboard.

Internally, there are three Part types: Normal Parts (AWM2), Normal Parts (FM-X), and Drum Parts. Normal

Parts (AWM2) are mainly pitched musical instrument type sounds that can be played over the full range of

the keyboard. Normal Parts (FM-X) are also mainly pitched musical instrument type sounds, using FM

synthesis. Drum Parts are mainly percussion/drum sounds that are assigned to individual notes. A Normal

Part (AWM2) can consist of up to eight Elements, a Normal Part (FM-X) can consist of up to eight

Operators, and a Drum Part can consist of up to 73 Drum Keys.

An Element/Operator/Drum Key is the basic, smallest unit for a Part. By combining multiple Elements/

Operators/Keys, Parts can be created to produce even more realistic sounds or various richly textured

types of sound. Each Part is created by editing parameters unique to each (Element Edit parameters/

Operator Edit parameters/Key Edit parameters) and parameters common to all the Elements/Operators/

Keys (Element Common Edit, Operator Common Edit, and Key Common Edit parameters.)

NOTE For instructions on editing a Normal Part (AWM2), see page 66. For instructions on editing a Normal Part (FM-X),

see page 145. For instructions on editing a Drum Part, see page 133.

FM-X

This synthesizer also features an FM-X tone generator, in addition to the AWM2 block. The

abbreviation “FM” of FM-X stands for “frequency modulation,” which is a special tone generation

system that uses the frequency of one waveform to modulate another waveform, in order to produce a

completely new one. In this synthesizer, there are eight FM Operators and a full 88 different Algorithm

types. By changing the operator combination patterns, controlling the modulation with other

parameters such as levels and envelopes, and using high-quality filters, effects, and EQ commonly

with AWM2, you can create richly textured sounds that change in a highly complex fashion.

Normal Parts (AWM2)

These Parts are played conventionally from the

keyboard, with standard pitches sounding for each key,

generated by AWM2. A Normal Part consists of up to

eight Elements. Depending on the settings in the Part

Edit, these Elements are sounded simultaneously, or

different Elements are sounded according to the note

range, velocity range and the XA (Expanded

Articulation) settings (page 6).

The illustration shows an example of a Normal Part (AWM2). Since the six Elements here are distributed

across both the note range of the keyboard and the velocity range, a different Element sounds depending

on which note you play and how strongly you play it. In the velocity distribution, Elements 1, 3 and 5 sound

when playing the keyboard softly, while Elements 2, 4 and 6 sound when playing it strongly. In the note

distribution, Elements 1 and 2 sound in the lower range of the keyboard, Elements 3 and 4 sound in the

middle range, and Elements 5 and 6 sound in the higher range. In the velocity distribution, Elements 1, 3

and 5 sound when playing the keyboard softly, while Elements 2, 4 and 6 sound when playing it strongly. In

a practical example of this in use, a piano Part could be composed of six different samples. Elements 1, 3

and 5 would be the sounds of the piano played softly, over the respective note ranges, while Elements 2, 4

and 6 would be strongly played sounds, for each respective note range. Actually, this instrument is even

more flexible than this, since it allows up to eight independent Elements.

Normal Parts (FM-X)

These Parts are also played conventionally from the keyboard, with standard pitches sounding for each

key, generated by FM synthesis. The sound for a Normal Part (FM-X) is created by modulating a frequency

of a fundamental waveform with another waveform. An operator that generates a fundamental waveform is

a “carrier,” and an operator that modulates these waveforms is a “modulator.” The combination of a

number of Operators is called “Algorithm.”

When the waveform output from the Operator is a simple sine wave, no harmonics are included other than

the fundamental tone. However, you can create harmonics by modulating the waveform with other

Operators. How harmonics can be created depends on the Modulators’ output levels and the frequency

rates of Carriers and Modulators. On the other hand, the basic pitch is determined by Carrier’s frequency,

and the output level is determined by the Carrier’s output level. The figure described below shows a basic

way to create FM sound by using an analog synthesizer.

Although the figure described above shows waveforms which are generated by two operators, the MODX

has eight Operators. The combination of a number of Operators is called an “Algorithm” and this

synthesizer has parameters for setting the Algorithm.

Drum Parts

Drum Parts are mainly percussion/drum sounds

that are assigned to individual notes on the

keyboard (C0 to C6). Unlike Elements, a Drum

key is equivalent to the corresponding note,

meaning that you cannot change its range.

Drum or percussion sounds are assigned to

each Drum Key. You can create various types of

Drum Parts by changing the drum or percussion sound assigned to each key and edit the parameters

such as pitch and EG.

Expanded Articulation (XA) is a tone generation system that provides greater performance flexibility and

acoustic realism. This feature allows you to more effectively recreate realistic sound and natural

performance techniques—such as legato and staccato—and provides other unique modes for random

and alternate sound changes as you play.

Realistic legato performance

This instrument more accurately reproduces a legato effect by allowing specific Elements to be sounded

when playing legato and other Elements to be played normally (with the XA Control parameter settings

“Normal” and “Legato”).

Authentic note release sound

The MODX reproduces these special, characteristic sounds by setting the XA Control parameter of certain

Elements to “Key Off.”

Subtle sound variations for each note played

The MODX more accurately reproduces these subtle sound variations by using the XA Control parameter

settings “Cycle” and “Random.”

Switching among different sounds to recreate the natural performance on an

acoustic instrument

Acoustic instruments have their own unique characteristics—even specific, unique sounds that are

produced only at certain times in a performance. These include the flutter tonguing on a flute or the

playing of high harmonics on an acoustic guitar. The MODX recreates these by allowing you to switch

between the sounds while you play—using the [ASSIGN 1]/[ASSIGN 2] buttons and the XA Control

parameter settings, “A.SW1 On,” “A.SW2 On” and “A.SW Off.”

NOTE You can turn the [ASSIGN 1]/[ASSIGN 2] button on or off also by transmitting the Control Change number

specified in the Common/Audio Edit display ([Control]  [Control Number]) (page 167) from an external device.

New sounds and new styles of playing

The highly versatile functions above can be applied effectively not only to acoustic sounds but also to

synthesizer and electronic Parts as well. The XA feature opens up enormous potential for realizing

authentic sounds, performing expressively and coming up with creative new styles of playing.

The Motion Control System is a completely new feature for variably controlling Motions (rhythmical,

multidimensional sound changes) in real time. This amazingly powerful feature dramatically and

dynamically alters the sounds of the instrument in new, never-heard-before ways—changing texturally,

rhythmically with the beats, providing cool, colorful lighting effects, and responding expressively to your

creative passion. The Motion Control System has three main functions:

Super Knob:

For creating multi-dimensional sonic changes, and enhancing those changes with colorful, continually

shifting lighting changes. Multiple parameters can be controlled simultaneously.

Motion Sequencer:

For continually variable sound changes. The powerful Motion Sequencer feature lets you dynamically

change sounds by operating Parameters depending on sequences created in advance. It provides real

time control for changing sounds depending on various sequences such as Tempo, Arpeggio, or the

rhythm of external connected devices.

Envelope Follower:

Envelope Follower is a function for detecting the volume envelope of the input signal waveform and

modifying sounds dynamically.

NOTE Envelope Follower can be controlled not only by the audio signal from an external device, but also by the output

of all Parts.

Elements/Drum Keys/Operators are the smallest “building blocks” in the MODX that comprise a Part.

These small sound units can be built, enhanced and processed by a variety of traditional synthesizer

parameters, such as Pitch EG, Filter EG, Amplitude EG, and LFO (shown below).

Oscillator

This unit allows you to assign the waveform (or basic sound material) to each Element/Operator/Key.

Oscillator-related parameters can be set as follows.

• For Normal Parts (AWM2) and Drum Parts

LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator)

As its name suggests, the LFO produces a wave of a low frequency.

These waves can be used to vary the pitch, filter or amplitude of each Element/Operator to create effects

such as vibrato, wah and tremolo. There are two LFO types: Part LFO, which is common to all Elements/

Operators, and Element LFO, which is unique for each Element.

Parameters related to Part LFO can be set as follows.

• For Normal Parts (AWM2)

[EDIT]  Part selection  Element [Common]  [Mod/Control]  [Part LFO] (page 96)

• For Normal Parts (FM-X)

[EDIT]  Part selection  Operator [Common]  [Mod/Control]  [Part LFO] or [2nd LFO] (page 152)

Parameters related to Element LFO can be set as follows.

[EDIT]  Part selection  Element selection  [Element LFO] (page 126)

Maximum Polyphony

Maximum polyphony refers to the highest number of notes that can be sounded simultaneously from

the internal tone generator of the instrument.

The maximum polyphony of this synthesizer is 128 for AWM2 and 64 for FM-X. When the internal tone

generator block receives a number of notes exceeding the maximum polyphony, previously played

notes are cut off. Keep in mind that this may be especially noticeable with Parts not having decay.

Furthermore, the maximum polyphony applies to the number of Elements/Drum Keys used, not the

number of Parts. When Normal Parts (AWM2) that include up to eight Elements are used, the

maximum number of simultaneous notes may be less than 128.

A/D Input Block

This block handles the audio signal input from the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jacks. Various parameters

such as volume, pan, and effect can be set for the audio signal and the sound is output together with other

Parts. An Insertion Effect, the System Effects, the Master Effects, and the Master EQ can be applied to the

audio signal input via the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jacks.

Parameters related to the A/D Input block can be set as follows.

Sequencer Block

This lets you create Songs by recording and editing your performances as MIDI data (from the controller

block or an external device), allowing you to play the data back with the tone generator block.

A Song is created by recording your keyboard performance as MIDI sequence data to individual Tracks.

The MODX can store up to 128 Songs.

This is a memory location on the sequencer where your musical performances are stored. One Part can be

recorded to one track. Since the MODX has 16 tracks for one Song, you can record and play back a 16-

Part performance.

You can record your keyboard performance to the Song. You can record knob operations, controller

operations and Arpeggio playback as well as your keyboard playing to the specified Track as MIDI events.

Your keyboard performance and controller/knob operations will be recorded to the Track when the

corresponding Keyboard Control Switch for the Part is turned ON.

NOTE The Control Change messages and Parameter Change messages can be recorded by operating the Knobs. For

details on Control Change messages, see the Synthesizer Parameter Manual PDF document.

Arpeggio Block

This block lets you automatically trigger musical and rhythmic phrases by simply pressing a note or notes

on the keyboard. Yamaha’s Arpeggio sequence also changes in response to the actual notes or chords

you play, giving you a wide variety of inspiring musical phrases and ideas—both in composing and

Arpeggio Type Name

The Arpeggio Types are named according to certain rules and abbreviations. Once you understand these

rules and abbreviations, you’ll find it easy to browse through and select the desired Arpeggio Types.

Arpeggio types with “_N” at the end of the type name (example: HipHop1_N)

These Arpeggios are for using with the Normal Part, and Arpeggios with complex notes can be created

even when triggered by one note (page 14).

Arpeggio types with “_C” at the end of the type name (example: Rock1_C)

These Arpeggios are for using with the Normal Part, and correct Arpeggios can be created corresponding

to the chord you play (page 14).

Arpeggio types with a normal name (example: UpOct1)

In addition to the above types, there are three playback types: the Arpeggios created for use of Normal

Parts and played back using only the played notes and their octave notes (page 14), the Arpeggios

created for use of Drum Parts (page 15), and Arpeggios containing mainly non-note events (page 15).

Arpeggio types with “_AF1”, “_AF2”, or “_AF1&2” at the end of the type name

(example: Electro Pop AF1)

When these Arpeggios are played, both of [ASSIGN 1] and [ASSIGN 2] buttons are automatically turned

ON and the phrase starts playback.

Arpeggio types with [Mg] at the beginning of the type name (example:

[Mg]HardRock1)

These Arpeggios are for using with a Mega Voice.

The Arpeggio Type List in the Data List PDF document contains the following columns.

NOTE Note that this list is for illustration purposes only. For a complete listing of the Arpeggio Types, see the Data List

PDF document.

Mega Voices and Mega Voice Arpeggios

Normal sound uses velocity switching to make the sound quality and/or level of a Part change

according to how strongly or softly you play the keyboard—giving greater authenticity and natural

response to these Parts. However Mega Voices have a very complex structure with many different

layers that are not suitable for playing manually. Mega Voices were developed specifically to be

played by Mega Voice Arpeggios to produce incredibly realistic results. You should always use Mega

Voices with Mega Voice Arpeggios.

Accent Phrases are composed of sequence data included in some Arpeggio types, sounding only when

you play notes at a velocity higher (stronger) than that specified in the Accent Velocity Threshold

parameter.

If it is hard to play at velocities necessary to trigger the Accent Phrase, set the “Vel Threshold” (Accent

Velocity Threshold) parameter to a lower value.

Arpeggio playback types

There are three main Arpeggio playback types as described below.

Arpeggio types (belonging to all categories except for Drum/Perc and a part of Control/HybridSeq)

created for use of Normal Parts have the following three playback types.

Playback of played notes only

The Arpeggio is played back using only the played note(s) and octave notes.

Playback of a programmed sequence according to the played notes

These Arpeggio types have the several sequences each of which is suited for a certain chord type. Even if

you press only one note, the Arpeggio is played back using the programmed sequence—meaning that

notes other than the ones you play may be sounded. Pressing another note triggers a transposed

sequence using the pressed note as the new root note. Adding notes to those already held changes the

sequence accordingly. Arpeggios with this playback type have “_N” at the end of the type name.

Playback of a programmed sequence according to the played chord

These Arpeggio types created for use with Normal Parts are played back to match the chord type

determined by detecting the notes you play on the keyboard. Arpeggios with this playback type have “_C”

at the end of the type name.

NOTE When the “Key Mode” parameter is set to “Sort” or “Sort+Drct,” the same sequence is played back no matter

what order you play the notes. When the “Key Mode” parameter is set to “Thru” or “Thru+Drct,” a different

sequence is played back depending on the order you play the notes.

NOTE Since these types are programmed for Normal Parts, using them with Drum Parts may not produce musically

appropriate results.

Arpeggio types in Drum/Perc categories are programmed specifically for use with Drum Parts, giving you

instant access to various rhythm patterns. Three different playback types are available.

Playback of a drum pattern

Pressing any note(s) will trigger the same rhythm pattern.

Playback of a drum pattern, plus additional played notes (assigned drum

instruments)

Pressing any note will trigger the same rhythm pattern. Adding notes to the one already held produces

additional sounds (assigned drum instruments) for the drum pattern.

Playback only of the played notes (assigned drum instruments)

Playing a note or notes will trigger a rhythm pattern using only the notes played (assigned drum

instruments). Keep in mind that even if you play the same notes, the triggered rhythm pattern differs

depending on the order of the notes played. This gives you access to different rhythm patterns using the

same instruments simply by changing the order in which you play the notes, when the “Key Mode”

parameter is set to “Thru” or “Thru+Drct.”

NOTE The three playback types above are not distinguished by category name or type name. You’ll have to actually

play the types and hear the difference.

NOTE Since these types are programmed for Drum Parts, using them with Normal Parts may not produce musically

appropriate results.

Arpeggio types (in Control/HybridSeq main categories with Filter, Expression, Pan, Modulation, Pitch

Bend, and Assign 1/2 sub categories) are programmed primarily with Control Change and Pitch Bend

data. They are used to change the tone or pitch of the sound, rather than play specific notes.

In fact, some types contain no note data at all. When using a type of this category, set the “Key Mode”

parameter to “Direct,” “Sort+Drct,” or “Thru+Drct.”

NOTE Settings related to Key Mode are set as follows.

Tips for Arpeggio playback

Arpeggios not only provide inspiration and full rhythmic passages over which you can perform, they

give you quality MIDI data you can use in creating Songs, or fully formed backing parts to be used in

your live performances. For instructions on using Arpeggio, see the Owner’s Manual.

Creating an Arpeggio

In addition to using the preset Arpeggios, you can also create your own original Arpeggio data. First,

record a phrase to Song Tracks (up to a maximum of four). Then, convert the Song (or the MIDI sequence

data) to Arpeggio data from the Put Track to Arpeggio display.

1 Record MIDI sequence data to a Song.

2 Convert the MIDI sequence data (recorded to the Song) to Arpeggio data.

Determining how Song/Pattern data is converted to an Arpeggio – Convert Type

MIDI sequence data (of Song Tracks) can be converted to Arpeggio data in one of three ways, according

to the Convert types below. These types can also be selected independently for each destination Track—

providing enormous flexibility and performance control.

Record the MIDI sequence data to a Song Track, referring to the previous instructions in this chapter as

needed. The examples listed below are used as reference.

Creating a rhythm pattern (using a Drum Voice)

Creating a bass line (using a Normal Voice)

Normal (Normal Arpeggio) The Arpeggio is played back using only the played note and its octave notes.

Fixed Playing any note(s) will trigger the same MIDI sequence data.

OrgNotes (Original Notes) Basically same as “Fixed” with the exception that the Arpeggio playback notes

differ according to the played chord.

Track 1 Record a basic rhythm pattern using various drum instruments. Convert via “Fixed.”

Track 2–4 Record a different rhythm pattern using a specific drum instrument to

each Track.

Convert via “Normal.”

Motion Sequencer Block

The powerful Motion Sequencer feature lets you dynamically change sounds by operating Parameters

depending on sequences created in advance.

It provides real time control for changing sounds depending on various sequences such as Tempo,

Arpeggio, or the rhythm of external connected devices.

You can assign up to eight desired Sequence types for one Lane.

You can also set up to four Lanes corresponding to the Motion Sequencer function for one Part. Up to eight

Lanes can be used at the same time for the entire Performance.

The setting status (on or off) the Lanes in the entire Performance will be shown as follows.

Effect Block

This block applies effects to the output of the tone generator block as well as audio input block,

processing and enhancing the sound. Effects are applied in the final stages of editing, letting you change

the sound as desired.

Effect structure

System Effects are applied to the overall sound. With System Effects, the sound of each Part is sent to the

effect according to the Effect Send Level for each Part. The processed sound (referred to as “wet”) is sent

back to the mixer according to the Return Level, and output—after being mixed with the unprocessed

“dry” sound. This instrument is equipped with Variation and Reverb as System Effects. In addition, you can

set the Send Level from Variation to Reverb. This parameter is used to apply Reverb to the signals output

from the Variation. You can get a natural effect by applying Reverb depth to the Variation sound with the

same level as that of the dry sound.

Insertion Effects can be applied individually to each of specified parts before merging signals of all parts.

It should be used for sounds for which you want to drastically change the character. You can set different

Effect types to the Insertion Effects A and B for each Part. These settings can be made from Part Edit 

[Effect] (page 75, page 136, page 150).

This synthesizer features 13 sets of Insertion Effects. They can be applied to Parts1–8 and four of the Parts

9–16 and A/D Input Part.

This block applies effects to the final stereo output signal of the entire sound. Multiple Effect types are

available.

Element EQ is applied to each Element of the Normal Part (AWM2) and each key of the Drum Part. You can

specify one of three different EQ shapes, including shelving and peaking.

NOTE Element EQ does not affect the Input signals from the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jacks.

This EQ is applied to a Part before and after the Insertion Effect.

Master EQ is applied to the final (post-effect), overall sound of the instrument. In this EQ, all five bands can

be set to peaking, with shelving being available also for the lowest and highest bands.

About the Vocoder Effect

MODX features a Vocoder effect. Vocoder is a distinctive, “robot voice” effect which extracts the

characteristic of the microphone sound and adds it to the sound via your keyboard performance. The

human voice consists of sounds generated from the vocal cords, and filtered by the throat, nose and

mouth. These resonant sections have specific frequency characteristics and they function effectively as a

filter, creating many formants (harmonic content). The Vocoder effect extracts the filter characteristics of

the voice from the microphone input and recreates the vocal formants by the use of multiple band pass

filters. The machine-like ‘robot’ voice is created by passing the pitched sounds of musical instruments

(such as a synthesizer sound) through the filters.

About Effect categories, Effect types, and Effect parameters

For information regarding the effect categories of this instrument and the effect types contained in

their categories, see the “Effect Type List” in the Data List PDF document. For information on the

effect parameters which can be set in the each effect type, see the “Effect Parameter List” in the Data

List PDF document. For information on the descriptions of each effect category, each effect type, and

each effect parameter, see the Synthesizer Parameters Manual PDF document.

About Preset settings

Preset settings for parameters of each effect type are provided as templates and can be selected in

the Effect Type selection display. To get a desired effect sound, try first selecting one of the Presets

close to your imagined sound, then change the parameters as necessary. Preset settings can be

determined by setting “Preset” in each effect parameter display. For information on each effect type,

see the Data List PDF document.

Envelope Follower Block

Envelope Follower is a function for detecting the envelope of the input signal waveform and modifying

sounds dynamically. This function allows you to control not only Part outputs but also input signals from

external devices connected to the A/D INPUT [L/MONO]/[R] jacks.

The Input source of each Envelope Follower is fixed such as Part 1 for EnvFollower 1, Part 2 for

EnvFollower 2, and the Audio Part for EnvFollower AD. However, the signal output from each Envelope

Follower can be another “input source” for any desired destination such as each Part or even the entire

Performance. For example, you can modify the sound of Part 2 by using the Envelope Follower for Part 1

(EnvFollower 1) as the “Source.” The Envelope Follower as the “Source” and the target parameter to be

controlled by the Envelope Follower (which is called “Destination”) are set in the Control Assign display

(page 100).

Controller Block

This block consists of the keyboard, Pitch Bend and Modulation Wheels, Assignable Switches, Knobs,

Control Sliders and Super Knob. By operating these controllers, you can transmit MIDI messages to the

tone generator block to play and modify sounds, or to the DAW software to further control the sounds.

Keyboard

The keyboard transmits the note on/off messages to the Tone Generator Block (for sounding) and

Sequencer Block (for recording). You can change the note range of the keyboard in octaves by using the

OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons, transpose the notes by using the OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons while holding down the

[SHIFT] button, and set how the actual velocity is generated according to the strength with which you play

notes.

Pitch Bend wheel

Use the Pitch Bend wheel to bend notes up (roll the wheel away from

you) or down (roll the wheel toward you) while playing the keyboard.

Roll the wheel upward/downward to bend the pitch upward/downward.

This wheel is self-centering and will automatically return to normal pitch

when released. The Pitch Bend Range setting can be changed in Part

Edit  [Part Settings]  [Pitch] (page 68). Functions other than Pitch

Bend can be assigned to the Pitch Bend wheel in the Part Edit 

[Mod/Control]  [Control Assign] (page 100, page 153).

Modulation wheel

Even though the Modulation wheel is conventionally used to apply

vibrato to the sound, many of the preset Performances have other

functions and effects assigned to the wheel.

The more you move this wheel up, the greater the effect that is applied

to the sound. To avoid accidentally applying effects to the current

Performance, make sure the Modulation wheel is set to minimum

before you start playing. Various functions can be assigned to the

Modulation wheel in Part Edit  [Mod/Control]  [Control Assign]

(page 100, page 153).

Assignable Switches

According to the XA (Expanded Articulation) Control settings (page 6) in Element Edit  [Osc/Tune]

(page 107), you can call up specific Elements of the current Part by pressing each of these buttons during

your keyboard performance. You can select how the on/off status of these buttons is switched in Common/

Audio Edit  [General] (page 159). Furthermore, you can assign various functions (other than calling up

specific Elements) to these buttons in Part Edit  [Mod/Control]  [Control Assign] (page 100, page 153).

Knobs and Control Sliders

These knobs and sliders let you change various aspects of the Part’s sound in real time—while you play.

For instructions on using the knobs and control sliders, see the Owner’s Manual. For instructions on using

the Knobs 1–4 (5–8), see “Quick Edit” (page 35).

Super Knob

The Super Knob lets you simultaneously control the parameters common to all Parts (Assign 1–8) which

are assigned to the eight knobs. For instructions on using the Super Knob, see the Owner’s Manual. For

the editable setting values for the Super Knob, see the Super Knob display (page 45). Also, for instructions

on setting the Assign 1–8 controls, see the Control Assign display (page 166) for the Common/Audio Edit.

Internal Memory

The MODX creates a variety of different kinds of data, including Performances, Live Sets, and Songs. This

section describes how to maintain the various types of data and use the memory devices/media for storing

them.

Preset Memory

Preset Memory is memory designed specifically for reading out data such as Preset Performance,

Arpeggio, and Audition Phrase. You cannot overwrite the data in Preset Memory.

Edit buffer

The edit buffer is the memory location for edited data of these types: Performance, Live Set, and Song.

Although the edit buffer is designed specifically for data writing and data reading, the data contained in

the edit buffer is lost when the power is turned off. You should always store edited data to User memory

before editing new performance or before turning off the power. Data other than Performance and Motion

Sequence are automatically stored.

User memory

User data edited in the Edit buffer and utility settings for the entire system are stored in the dedicated area

in the User memory. Up to eight Library files (.X8L) read from the USB flash drive are loaded in the

dedicated area in the User memory.

This is read-write memory and the data will be kept even after the power is turned off.

Recall buffer and Compare buffer

If you’ve selected another Performance without storing the one you were editing, you can recall your

original edits, since the edit buffer’s contents are stored on backup memory, called the Recall buffer. Also,

the instrument has a Compare buffer in which the sound settings prior to editing will temporarily be

reinstated for comparison purposes. You can switch between the just-edited sound and its unedited

condition, and hear how your edits affect the sound. Both of these are read-write memory types. However,

you should make sure to store the sequence data before turning off the power, because any sequence

data you’ve created will be lost when the power is turned off. For instructions on using the Compare

function, see the Owner’s Manual.

 Put Track to Arpeggio

This function copies data in the specified measures of a track for creating Arpeggio data. Up to 16 unique

note numbers can be recorded to the Arpeggio track. If more than 16 different note numbers have been

recorded to the MIDI sequence data, the Convert operation reduces the notes in excess of the limit.

Because of this, be careful to record only up to 16 different notes when you create an Arpeggio, especially

when using multiple tracks.

Arp (Arpeggio Number)

three ways below. This parameter can be set for each track.

Settings: Normal, Fixed, Org Notes

Normal: The Arpeggio is played back using only the played note and its octave notes.

Fixed: Playing any note(s) will trigger the same MIDI sequence data.

Org Notes

(original notes): Basically same as “Fixed” with the exception that the Arpeggio playback notes differ

according to the played chord.

From the Zone Setting display you can set Zone-related parameters.

You can divide the keyboard into a maximum of eight independent areas (called “Zones”). To each Zone

can be assigned different MIDI channels. This makes it possible to control several Parts of the multi-timbral

tone generator simultaneously by a single keyboard or to control Parts of an external MIDI instrument over

several different channels in addition to the internal Parts of this synthesizer itself—letting you use the

MODX to effectively do the work of several keyboards.

To activate this display, select [UTILITY]  [Settings]  [Advanced], then set “Zone Master” to “ON.”

For details, refer to the Owner’s Manual.

Zone (Zone Switch)

Settings: Ch1–Ch16, Off

Note Limit

Determines the lowest and highest notes of the range for the selected Zone. The selected Zone will sound

only when you play notes within this range. If you first specify the highest note and then the lowest note, for

example “C5 to C4,” then the note range covers both “C-2 to C4” and “C5 to G8.”

Settings: C -2 – G8

Octave Shift

Determines the amount in octaves by which the range of the Zone is shifted up or down. You can adjust the

offset up or down over a maximum range of three octaves.

Settings: -3 – +0 (Default) – +3

Key Mode

Determines how the Arpeggio plays back when playing the keyboard.

Settings: Sort, Thru, Direct, Sort+Drct, Thru+Drct

Sort: When you play specific notes (for example, the notes of a chord), the same sequence plays, no matter what

order you play the notes.

Thru: When you play specific notes (for example, the notes of a chord), the resulting sequence differs depending on

the order of the notes.

Direct: Note events of the Arpeggio sequence do not play; only the notes you play on the keyboard are heard. When

the Arpeggio plays back, events such as Pan and Brightness are applied to the sound of your keyboard

performance. Use this setting when the Arpeggio types include non-note data or when you set the Arpeggio

Category to Control.

Sort+Drct: The Arpeggio plays back according to the Sort setting, and the notes played are also sounded.

Thru+Drct: The Arpeggio plays back according to the Thru setting, and the notes played are also sounded.

Velocity (Velocity Rate)

Determines how much the velocity of Arpeggio playback is offset from the original value. If the resulting

Velocity value is 0, it will be set to 1. If the resulting Velocity value is greater than 128 it will be set to 127.

Settings: 0%–200%

Gate Time (Gate Time Rate)

Determines how much the Gate Time (length) of the Arpeggio notes is offset from the original value. If the

resulting Gate Time value is 0, it will be set to 1.

Settings: 0%–200%

Change Timing

Determines the actual timing at which the Arpeggio type is switched when you select another type during

Arpeggio playback. When set to “Real-time,” the Arpeggio type is switched immediately. When set to

“Measure,” the Arpeggio type is switched at the top of the next measure.

Settings: Real-time, Measure

Loop

Determines whether the Arpeggio plays through a single time or continuously, while notes are held.

Settings: Off, On

Arp Play Only (Arpeggio Play Only)

Determines whether or not the current Part plays only the note events of the Arpeggio playback. When this

parameter is set to on, only the note events of the Arpeggio playback affect the tone generator block.

Settings: Off, On

Arp/MS Grid (Arpeggio/Motion Sequencer Grid)

Determines the type of note that serves as the basis for the Quantize or Swing. The parameter value is

displayed in clocks.

For Motion Sequencer, this parameter value is one step length.

Settings: 60 (32nd note), 80 (16th note triplet), 120 (16th note), 160 (8th note triplet), 240 (8th note), 320 (1/4 note triplet),

480 (1/4 note)

Qntz Strength (Quantize Strength)

This parameter sets the “strength” by which note events are pulled toward the quantize beat set in “Arp/MS

Grid.” A setting of 100% produces exact timing set in “Arp/MS Grid.” A setting of 0% results in no

quantization.

Settings: 0%–100%

Unit (Part Unit Multiply)

Adjusts the Arpeggio playback time. By using this parameter, you can create a different Arpeggio from the

original one.

Settings: 50%, 66%, 75%, 100%, 133%, 150%, 200%, 266%, 300%, 400%, Common

200%: The playback time will be doubled and the tempo is halved.

100%: The normal playback time.

50%: The playback time will be halved and the tempo doubled.

Common: The value set in the Unit Multiply common to the all Parts will be applied.

Judicious use of this setting lets you create swing rhythms and triplet feels, such as shuffle and bounce.

Settings: -120 – +120

Velocity Limit (Arpeggio Velocity Limit)

Determines the minimum and maximum Velocity values in which the Arpeggio responds. Each Arpeggio

will only sound for notes played within its specified velocity range. If you first specify the maximum value

and then the minimum value, for example “93 to 34,” then the Velocity range covers both “1 to 34” and “93

to 127.”

Determines the minimum velocity that will trigger the Accent Phrase.

Accent Phrases are composed of sequence data included in some Arpeggio types, sounding only when

you play notes at a velocity higher (stronger) than that specified in the Accent Velocity Threshold

parameter. If it is difficult to play at velocities necessary to trigger the Accent Phrase, set the “Accent Vel

Threshold” (Accent Velocity Threshold) parameter to a lower value.

NOTE For information on Arpeggio types that use this function, refer to the Data List PDF document.

Settings:

off, 1–127

Accent Start Quantize

Determines the start timing of the Accent Phrase when the Velocity specified in Accent Velocity Threshold

above is received. When this is set to off, the Accent Phrase starts as soon as the Velocity is received.

When this is set to on, the Accent Phrase starts on the beat specified for each Arpeggio type after the

Velocity is received.

Settings: off, on

Random SFX

Determines whether Random SFX is active or not.

Some Arpeggio types feature a Random SFX function which will trigger special sounds (such as guitar fret

noises) when the note is released.

NOTE For information on Arpeggio types that use this function, refer to the “Arpeggio Type List” in the Data List PDF

document.

Each-On: The LFO resets with each note you play and starts a waveform at the phase specified by the Phase

parameter.

1st-On: The LFO resets with each note you play and starts a waveform at the phase specified by the Phase

parameter. If you play a second note while the first is being held, the LFO continues cycling according to the same

phase as triggered by the first note—in other words, the LFO only resets if the first note is released before the second

is played.

Element Edit (Element)

From the Oscillator/Tune display you can assign the waveform (or basic sound material) to each Element.

You can set the note range for the Element (the range of notes on the keyboard over which the Element will

sound) as well as the velocity response (the range of note velocities within which the Element will sound).

Bank (Waveform Bank)

Number (Waveform Number)

Category (Waveform Category)

Sub Category (Waveform Sub Category)

Name (Waveform Name)

Indicates the information of the waveform used for the selected Element. “Bank” indicates which waveform

location (Preset, User and Library) is assigned to the Element.

Settings: See the Data List PDF document.

Element Switch

Determines whether the currently selected Element is on or off.

Settings: Off, On

XA Control

Determines the functioning of the Expanded Articulation (XA) feature of an Element.

The XA feature is sophisticated tone generator system that allows you to more effectively recreate realistic

sound and natural performance techniques. It also provides other unique modes for random and alternate

sound changes as you play. For details on the XA feature, see the “Tone Generator Block” in the “Basic

Structure” on page 6.

Settings: Normal, Legato, Key Off, Cycle, Random, A.SW Off, A.SW1 On, A.SW2 On

For each Element, you can set to:

Normal: The Element sounds normally each time you play the note.

Legato: When the Mono/Poly parameter is set to Mono, this Element will be played in place of the one which is set to

“Normal” of the XA Control parameter when you play the keyboard in legato fashion (playing the next note of a single-note

line or melody before releasing the previous note).

Key Off: The Element will sound each time you release the note.

Cycle (for multiple Elements): Each Element sounds alternately according to its numerical order. In other words, playing the

first note will sound Element 1, the second note Element 2, and so on.

Random (for multiple Elements): Each Element will sound randomly each time you play the note.

A.SW1 On: When the [ASSIGN 1] button is turned On, the Element will sound.

A.SW2 On: When the [ASSIGN 2] button is turned On, the Element will sound.

A.SW Off: When both the [ASSIGN 1] and [ASSIGN 2] buttons are turned Off, the Element will sound.

Edit Waveform

Calls up the Waveform Edit display.

From this display you can set parameters related to Key Banks consisting of the Waveform.

•Key Bank

A Key Bank is digital audio data, made by directly recording a signal, such as that of vocals or

electric guitar, to this instrument.

Throughout this manual, the words “Key Bank” and “Wave” are sometimes used interchangeably;

however, you should be careful to distinguish between “Key Bank” (raw audio data) and “Waveform”

(collected audio data used to make up a Part).

• Key Bank and Waveform

Key Banks are assigned and stored to Waveforms on the MODX.

Each of the Waveforms can contain multiple Key Banks. To assign these Key Banks to a different

space or container, you can set the note limit and velocity limit for each Key Bank. With this setting,

the different Key Bank is played back depending on the pressed note and its velocity.

This parameter’s function varies according to the selected Filter Type. If the selected filter is an LPF, HPF,

BPF (excluding BPFw), or BEF, this parameter is used to set the Resonance. For the BPFw, it is used to

adjust the frequency bandwidth. This parameter is used to set the amount of Resonance (harmonic

emphasis) applied to the signal at the cutoff frequency. This can be used in combination with the “Cutoff”

parameter to add further character to the sound. For the BPFw, this parameter is used to adjust the width

of the band of signal frequencies passed by the filter.

This parameter is not displayed depending on the selected Filter Types.

XA Control

Determines the functioning of the Expanded Articulation (XA) feature of an Element.

The XA feature is sophisticated tone generator system that allows you to more effectively recreate realistic

sound and natural performance techniques. It also provides other unique modes for random and alternate

sound changes as you play. For details on the XA feature, see the “Tone Generator Block” in the “Basic

Structure” on page 6.

Settings: Normal, Legato, Key Off, Cycle, Random, A.SW1 On (Assignable Switch 1 ON), A.SW2 On (Assignable Switch 2

ON), A.SW Off (Assignable Switch 1 OFF)

Normal: The Element sounds normally each time you play the note.

Legato: When the Mono/Poly parameter is set to Mono, this Element will be played in place of the one which is set to

“Normal” of the XA Control parameter when you play the keyboard in legato fashion (playing the next note of a

single-note line or melody before releasing the previous note).

Key Off: The Element will sound each time you release the note.

Cycle: Each Element sounds alternately according to its numerical order. In other words, playing the first note will

sound Element 1, the second note Element 2, and so on.

Random: Each Element will sound randomly each time you play the note.

A.SW1 On: When the [ASSIGN 1] button is turned On, the Element will sound.

A.SW2 On: When the [ASSIGN 2] button is turned On, the Element will sound.

A.SW Off: When both of the [ASSIGN 1] and [ASSIGN 2] buttons are turned Off, the Element will sound.

Normal Part (FM-X) Edit

A Normal Part (FM-X) can consist of up to eight Operators. There are two types of Normal Part (FM-X) Edit

displays: Operator Common Edit display, for editing settings common to all eight Operators; and Operator

Edit display, for editing individual Operators.

Operator Common Edit (Common)

From the General display you can set various parameters such as Part Name, Volume, and Pan.

Most parameters are the same as parameters on the Element Common Edit display for Normal Parts

(AWM2) (page 66) except the following additional parameters as bellows.

Random Pan

Determines the amount by which the sound of the selected Operator is panned randomly left and right for

each note you press. The Pan setting is used as the Center Pan position.

Settings: 0–127

Alternate Pan

Determines the amount by which the sound of the selected Operator is panned alternately left and right for

each note you press. The Pan setting is used as the basic Pan position.

Settings: L64–C–R63

Scaling Pan

Determines the degree to which the notes (specifically, their position or octave range) affect the Pan

position, left and right, of the selected Operator. At note C3, the main Pan setting is used for the basic Pan

position. Positive settings will cause the Pan position to be set left when you play in the lower range on the

keyboard and to be set right when you play in the higher range on the keyboard. A negative setting will

have the opposite effect.

Reference

Basic waveforms used as Operators contain harmonics, with the exception of “Sine.” A sine wave contains

its fundamental frequency with no additional harmonics. Therefore, when “Form” is set to any waveform

other than “Sine,” you can adjust harmonics and the peak of each formant, depending on the Waveform

Type by determining the related parameters. Below are the basic waveforms and the characteristic

parameters.

The larger the “Skirt” value, the more harmonics the wave contains.

The larger “Resonance” value, the higher frequency the center frequency is moved.

• Resonance=0: The Center frequency is the basic wave

• Resonance=99: The Center frequency is the 100th harmonic

Key On Reset (Oscillator Key On Reset)

Determines whether or not the oscillation of the Operator is reset each time a note is pressed.

Settings: Off, On

Pitch/Vel (Pitch Velocity Sensitivity)

Determines how the pitch of the selected Operator responds to velocity. This is available only when “Freq

Mode” is set to “Fixed.”

Settings: -7 – +7

Positive values: The harder you play the keyboard, the more the pitch rises.

Negative values: The harder you play the keyboard, the more the pitch falls.

0: No change in pitch.

Freq Mode (Oscillator Frequency Mode)

Determines the settings for the Output Pitch of the Operator.

Settings: Ratio, Fixed

Ratio: Determines the Output Pitch by detecting the note you play on the keyboard.

Fixed: Specifies the Pitch by setting “Coarse” and “Fine.”

The keyboard is divided in two at the break point.

The high-pitch side at the right is set by using the R Depth and the R Curve; the low-pitch side at the left is

set by using the L Depth and the L Curve as described below.

The Output level of the Key set as the Break Point depends on the Operator Level setting. For the Keys in

the left side of the Break Point, the Output level is adjusted based on the curve which is determined by the

Low Curve and Low Depth. For the Keys in the right side of the Break Point, the Output level is adjusted

based on the curve which is determined by the High Curve and High Depth. The Output level changes in

an exponential fashion from the Break Point on the Exp type curve and the Output level changes in a linear

fashion from the Break Point in the Linear type curve. In either case, the farther away from the Break Point

the key is, the greater the Output level changes for the key.

Utility

The Utility display has four tabs; the Setting tab, the Contents tab, the Tempo Settings tab, the Effect

Switch tab, and the Other Info tab. You can make various settings for the entire system.

From the Sound display you can make overall settings for the sounds output from the instrument.

Tone Generator Volume

Determines the overall volume of the instrument.

Settings: 0–127

Tone Generator Note Shift

Determines the amount (in semitones) by which the pitch of all notes is shifted.

Settings: -24semi – +24semi

Tone Generator Tune

Determines the fine tuning of the instrument’s overall sound (in 0.1 cent steps).

Settings: -102.4 – +102.3

Sustain Pedal (Foot Switch Sustain Pedal Select)

Selects the Foot switch type connected to the FOOT SWITCH [SUSTAIN] jack on the rear panel.

• When the FC3 or FC3A is used:

When you connect an optional FC3 or FC3A (equipped with the half-damper feature) for producing

the special “half-damper” effect (as on a real acoustic piano), set this parameter to “FC3A (Half on).”

If you don’t need the half-damper feature or want to disable it while still using an FC3 or FC3A, set

this parameter to “FC3A (Half off).”

• When the FC4, FC4A, or FC5 is used:

Select “FC4A/FC5.” The FC4, FC4A, and FC5 are not equipped with the half-damper feature.

Settings: FC3A (Half On), FC3A (Half Off), FC4A/FC5

NOTE Note that this setting is not necessary when controlling the half-damper feature via Control Change messages

from an external MIDI device to the instrument.

Keyboard Octave Shift

Determines the amount in octaves by which the range of the keyboard is shifted up or down. This

parameter is linked with the OCTAVE [-]/[+] buttons on the panel.

Settings: -3 – +3

Keyboard Transpose

This parameter is used to transpose the current zone in units of one semitone.

Settings: -11semi – +11semi

NOTE If you transpose beyond the note range limits (C -2 – G8), notes in the adjacent octaves will be used.

Keyboard Velocity Curve

These five curves determine how the actual velocity will be generated and transmitted according to the

velocity (strength) with which you play notes on the keyboard. The graph shown in the display indicates

the velocity response curve. (The horizontal line represents the received velocity values (strength of your

playing), while the vertical line represents the actual velocity values transmitted to the internal/external

tone generators.)

Settings: Normal, Soft, Hard, Wide, Fixed

Normal: This linear “curve” produces one-to-one correspondence between the strength of your keyboard playing (velocity)

and the actual sound change.

Soft: This curve provides increased response, especially for lower velocities.

Hard: This curve provides increased response, especially for higher velocities.

Wide: This curve accentuates your playing strength by producing lower velocities in response to softer playing and louder

velocities in response to harder playing. As such, you can use this setting to expand your dynamic range.

Fixed: This setting produces the same amount of sound change (set in Keyboard Fixed Velocity below), no matter what your

playing strength. The velocity of the notes you play are fixed at the value set here.

Keyboard Fixed Velocity

The Fixed curve can be used to send a fixed velocity to the tone generator regardless of how hard or soft

you play the keyboard. This parameter is only available if you select the “Fixed” Keyboard Velocity Curve

above.

Settings: 1–127

Using Quick Setup can instantly call up appropriate sequencer-related panel settings by selecting

convenient preset setups, allowing you to simultaneously and instantly set a variety of important

sequencer-related parameters.
