4 Alternate Pan
Determines the amount by which the sound is panned 
alternately left and right for each note you press, assuming 
the pan position set above as center. Higher values 
increase the width of the Pan range. 
Settings: L64 – C – R63
5 Random Pan
Determines the amount by which the sound of the selected 
Drum Key is panned randomly left and right for each note 
you press. The Pan setting (above) is used as the Center 
Pan position. 
Settings: 0 – 127
Amplitude EG
Using the AEG, you can control the transition in volume 
from the moment the sound starts to the moment it stops. 
Time*
The Time parameters let you set the time between the 
adjoining points of the level parameters below. A higher 
value results in a longer time until reaching the next level. 
Settings: 0 – 127 (0 – 126, hold for Decay 2 Time)
6 Attack Time
Determines how long it takes for the sound to reach full 
volume (Attack Level) when a note is pressed. 
7 Decay 1 Time
Determines how long it takes for the sound to fall from the 
Attack Level to the Decay1 Level after the note is pressed. 
8 Decay 2 Time
Determines how quickly the sound decays from the 
Decay1 Level to silence after the note is released. 
Level*
The Level parameter lets you set the AEG level. 
Settings: 0 – 127
9 Decay 1 Level
Determines the level which the AEG level reaches from the 
Attack Level after the Decay1 time elapses. 
Equalizer (EQ) Settings—[F6] EQ
