Instrument
Detune
(
+
7)
Each
instrument can
be
tuned independently over
a range
of
+7.
Two
slightly
detuned
instruments can be played
together
to
create a
thick, rich
sound.
[8]
MIDI
Note
Shift
(
+
24)
Incoming
notes
can
be transposed independently
for
each
instrument
in
steps
of
a semitone.
A
setting
of
-24
is
two
octaves
down, and
+
24
is
two
octaves
up.
In
the display
below, instrument
1
is
inactive
(its
Max
Notes
setting
is
0),
so
instrument
2
is
the
"first'"
in-
strument.
Set as
shown, instrument
2
will
use
its
own
LFO
(with
Amplitude
modulation), instrument
3 will
use
its
own
LFO
(without
Amplitude
modulation),
and
instrument 4
will
use
the
LFO
of instrument
3
(with
Amplitude
modulation).

Volume
(0-99)
The volume
of each instrument can be
set
independently
(0—99).
A
vertical
bar
beside
each
number
graphically
indicates
the
volume.
Note
When
a
Performance
Memory
is
selected,
the
in-
struments
will
be
set
to
these
volume
levels.
However
^
when
an instrument
receives
a
MIDI
Control
Change
Bn.07.xx (volume),
or
when
you
move
the
Volume
pedal,
this
setting
will
be defeated,
i.e.,
MIDI
will set
the
volume
regardless
of
this setting.
If
you want
to
set
the
volume
of an instrument
so
that
MIDI
(or the
Volume
pedal)
will

Micro Tuning
Select
The
DXll
has
13
Microtone
Tables
(see
p.
22)
in
its
memory;
1

are preset
and
the
other
two
(one
Octave
and one
Full)
can
be
edited.
You
can
select
one of
these
tables for
use
in
a
performance,
and
specify
whether
or
not
(on/off)
each instrument
1
--8
will
use the
selected
Microtone
Table.
When
Micro
Tune
is
on, that
instru-
ment
will
produce
the pitch indicated
by
the
data
in
the
selected
Microtone
Table.
When
Micro Tune
is
off,
that
instrument
will
play
the
normal
(equal
tempered)
scale.
For
preset tunings 2
5,
you
may
also specify the
key
of
the
scale.
In the
example
below, instruments
2
and
3
will
use the preset no. 2
scale
in
the
key
o\^
Db.

Output

The
output of each instrument can be assigned
to either,
both or neither of
the rear
panel outputs.

LFO
Select
This
selects
the
source of
LFO
modulation
for
each
in-
strument.
Amplitude Modulation
can be taken from
ei-
ther
the
first
or
second mstrument.
Pitch
Modulation
}k
(vibrato)
can
be taken
from
the
instrument's
own
settings.
off:
The
instrument
will
use neither
Amplitude
mo-
dulation
nor
Pitch
modulation.
vib:
The
instrument
will
use the
LFO
settings
from
its
own
currently selected voice
memory,
but
there
will
be
no Amplitude
modulation. (Thus,
if
you
need
only
Pitch
modulation, each
instru-
ment
can
have
its
own
independent
vibrato
generator.)
The
LFO
waveform
will
be
fixed
at
Triangle,
and
a
PMS
setting
equivalent
to
5 will
be used.
1
/
2:
If
an instrument
is
to
use
Amplitude
modulation,
it
must
share
the
LFO
of
either the
first
or
second
instrument
in
the
performance
(not
counting
instruments with
Max
Notes
=
0).
The
display
will
indicate the
instrument
number
(18)
of
the
LFO
that
will
be
used.
If
only
one
instrument
IS
active,

will
be displayed
instead
of
the
