How Percussion Instruments 
 
Are Organized
 
A Rhythm Set is a collection of Rhythm Tones, each of which 
represents a percussion instrument played on a single key. An 
instrument consists of the following four elements.
 
WG (Wave Generator)
 
This specifies the PCM waveform (or “wave”) that forms the basis of 
the Rhythm Tone - four waveforms can be assigned to each Rhythm 
Tone. You can also determine how the pitch of the Rhythm Tone will 
change.
All Rhythm Sets built into the MC-909 consist of Rhythm Tones 
based on these waveforms.
 
TVF (Time Variant Filter)
 
This sets how the frequency characteristics of the Rhythm Tone will 
change.
 
TVA (Time Variant Amplifier)
 
This sets how the Rhythm Tone’s volume and stereo positioning will 
change.
 
Envelope
 
An envelope applies changes to the Rhythm Tone over time. There 
are separate envelopes for pitch, TVF (filter) and TVA (volume). For 
example, you would use the TVA Envelope to modify the way in 
which the Rhythm Tone attacks and decays.
 
Selecting the Wave(s) That 
 
Will Sound
 
Turn “on” the wave(s) that you want to sound. If you want to hear 
just a specific wave, turn the other waves “off.”
Press 
 
TONE SWITCH [1]–[4]
 
 to switch a wave on (button’s indicator 
lit) or off (indicator extinguished).
