Korg Electric Keyboard ユーザーズマニュアル

Here you can make basic settings for the oscillator(s).

Specifies the basic program type; whether it will use one or 
two oscillators, or a drum kit.

The program will use one oscillator (Oscillator 1, 

Filter 1, Amplifier 1). In this case the program will have a 
maximum of 62-note polyphony

.

 The program will use two oscillators (Oscillator 1/

2, Filter 1/2, Amplifier 1/2). Allowing you to create more 
complex sounds. In this case the program will have a maxi-
mum of 31-note polyphony

.

 The program will use one oscillator (as when Sin-

 is selected), but Oscillator 1 will be assigned a drum kit 

instead of a multisample. In this case the program will have 
a maximum of 62-note polyphony.

 The program will play polyphonically, allowing you 

play chords.
Mono: 

The program will play monophonically, producing 

only one note at a time.

  Hold is On. Even when you take your finger 

off of the key, the note will continue sounding as if it contin-
ued to be held. Unless the “Amp1 EG”, “Amp2 EG” (5.1–3a, 
5.2–3) “S (Sustain Level)” is set to 0, the sound will continue 
playing.
This is ideal for playing drum sounds, If you set “Mode 
(Oscillator Mode)” (2.1–1a) to Drums, you should normally-
turn Hold On.
Off (unchecked): 

Hold is Off. Except for drum programs, 

you should normally set Hold Off.

If you turn “Hold” On for a drum program, keys of the 
selected drum kit whose “Enable Note Off” parameter 
(GLOBAL 5.1–3a) is unchecked will be set to Hold On. 
Keys that are checked will be set to Hold Off. If you 
select Hold Off, the keys will be set to Hold Off regard-
less of their “Enable Note Off” setting.

This is available when the “Mode (Voice Assign Mode)” set-
ting is set to Poly.

  When the same note is played repeatedly, the 

previous note will be silenced before the next note is 
sounded, so that the notes do not overlap.

This is available when the “Mode (Voice Assign Mode)” set-
ting is set to Mono.

  Legato is on. When multiple note-on mes-

sages occur, the first note-on will retrigger the sound, and 
the second and subsequent note-ons will not retrigger.
When legato is on, multiple note-on message will not retrig-
ger the voice. If one note is already on and another note is 
turned on, the oscillator sound, envelope, and LFO will not 
be reset, and only the pitch of the oscillator will be updated. 
This setting is effective for wind instrument sounds and 
analog synth-type sounds.
Off (unchecked):

 Legato is off. Notes will always be retrig-

gered when note-on occurs.
When legato is off, multiple note-on’s will retrigger the 
voice at each note-on. The oscillator sound, envelope, and 
LFO will be reset (and retriggered) according to the settings 
of the program.

If “Legato” is checked, certain multisamples or key-
board locations may produce an incorrect pitch.

This parameter is valid when “Mode (Voice Assign Mode)” 
is set to Mono.
It specifies which note will be given priority to play when 
two or more notes are played simultaneously.

 Lowest note will take priority.

 Highest note will take priority.

 Last note will take priority.

Indicates the basic scale for the internal tone generator.

This is the most widely used scale, 

where each semitone step is spaced at equal pitch intervals.

In this temperament, major chords of the 

selected tonic will be perfectly in tune.

 In this temperament, minor chords of the 

selected tonic will be perfectly in tune.

This scale includes the quarter-tone scale used in 

Arabic music.

This scale is based on ancient Greek musical 

theory, and is especially effective for playing melodies.

 (Werkmeister III): This is an equal tempered 

scale that was used since the later Baroque period.

 (Kirnberger III): This scale was created in the 

18th century, and is used mainly to tune harpsichords.

 This is an Indonesian gamelan scale in which an 

octave consists of five notes.
When “Key” is set to C, use the C, D, F, G and A notes. 
(Other keys will sound equal-tempered pitches.)

This is an Indonesian gamelan scale in which an 

octave consists of seven notes.
When “Key” is set to C, use the white keys. (The black keys 
will sound the equal tempered pitches.)

This tuning is used for acoustic pianos.

This is the full-range scale (C–1 – G9) that is 

specified in “User All Notes Scale” (GLOBAL 3.1–2a).

These are the single-octave scales that 

are specified in “User Octave Scale” (GLOBAL 3.1–1a).

2.1–1b
