VELO CRV (Velocity Curve)
fig.03-12
Velocity Curve
Velocity Curve selects for each MIDI channel one of the four 
following Velocity Curve types that best matches the touch 
of the connected MIDI keyboard. Set this to OFF if you are 
using the MIDI keyboard’s own velocity curve.
fig.03-13
Phase Lock (Phase Lock Switch)
Set Phase Lock to ON when you want to suppress 
discrepancies in timing of Parts played on the same MIDI 
channel, or to OFF when you want to leave the expression 
timing unchanged.
When the Phase Lock parameter is set to ON, Parts on 
the same MIDI channel are put in a condition in which 
their timing is matched, enabling them to be played at 
the same time. Accordingly, a certain amount of time 
may elapse between reception of the Note messages and 
playing of the sounds. Turn this setting to ON only as 
needed.
