Because of the rich builtin sound sources and the comprehensive MIDI control functions which let you make changes to the sounds and various parameters in realtime, the JV-80 Is Ideal for both live performance situations and desktop music applications. @ Various Modes for Powerful Performance Potential ‘The JV-80 features two operating modes: the Patch Play mode, which enables you to use the full expressive capabilities of the JV-80 by playing a single sound in realtime, and the Performance Pay mode, which allows you to play eight different Parts (internal sound sources) over eight diferent MIDI channels. in the Key mode, there is @ Solo mode that lets you make special Key assignments, along with portamento for playing expressive melody lines in legato. @ Wide Range of Sound Waveforms Naturally, the JV-80 provides basic synthesizer waveforms, sch as the sawtooth wave, square wave and pulse wave. It aso features built-in waveforms that have various frequency elements or short actual’ sounds. Since wavetorms can be processed by FXM (Frequency Cross-Modulation), the JV-80 is capable of satistying the most demanding sound programming applications, trom recreatng realist sounds 1 producing unusual, otherworldly effets. New waveforms can also be added by inetaling the optional PCM card or expansion board @ Built-in Digital Effects Chorus and reverb effects are built into the JV-80, Rich stereo effects that add spaciousness and depth to the sound, ‘can be gained by using chorus and reverb. @ Flexible Realtime Parameter Control Controt over individual paramoters can be assigned to the sliders or footswitches/pedals. The expressive potential is enormous, since a wide range of parameters can be selected for independent and simultaneous contro. @ Touch-sensitive Keyboard ‘The keyboard of the JV-80 features velocity and attertouch sensitvity. This allows you to change the tonal quality and volume of the sound by how strongly you hit the keys or how strongly you press down on them after hiting them. @ Ease of Operation In order to simply play and edit operations, the JV-80 has a large LOD display (40 characters by 2 lines) with corresponding soft keys which are used to directly select the. assigned parameters in the display. @ Convenient Performance Functions Even during performance, the sound programs and their parameters can be adjusted in realtime (and over MIDI) with the use of the Parameter Sliders. This makes it easy to adjust the sound to match the performance situation or the character of the song. @ Multi-timbral Operation The JV-80 features multitimbral capacity with seven Independent synthesizer Parts and one rhythm Part, This allows you to create the sound of an ensemble or group with, Just the JV-80, controling the sound sources over MIDI. @ Memory Card y using an optional DATA card (M-256E), the internal settings ean be stored. Sound program data which is stored con the DATA card can be called up for use while playing @ Convenient Panic Function ‘The JV-80 has @ panic function that lets you quickly cut off ‘stuck’ notes when using the unit to control other MIDI sound, sources.

Different modes are available depending on which sound program (Patch or Performance) is selected, ton of seven Patches Patch Play mode +++ (P.30) This mode plays sounds by calling up one Patch at a time. By using the eight sliders ‘or an optional foot pedal, you can make various realtime changes in the sound and volume and even change sound programs as you play. This mode lets you operate the JV-80 as you would a conventional synthesizer. Performance Play mode -- feeteeeereeeees (PSM) Since a Performance can combine up to eight different Patches, much thicker and richly textured sound programs can be created. Performances can also be used to create ensemble sounds by using different Patches to play different parts. This ‘mode also lets you add dynamic changes and movement to your music by changing the volume and pan settings for each Patch as they are played. Patch Edit mode ------- see (P.78) This mode Is used to access the synthesizer sound creation features of the instrument. In this mode, you can change the various elements which determine the character of the sound programs and create new Patches. Performance Edit mode ------ (P.115) By combining seven Patches and one Rhythm Set as component parts of a sound, this mode lets you set the overall sound or effect that you wish to create. In this ‘mode, the JV-60 can adapt to a wide range of applications. It can be used as a keyboard for live performance, in which you can make dynamic changes to the sound as you play by key velocity or by using connected pedals. It can also be set up as an all-purpose muttiple sound source for desktop music and home studio applications. Rhythm Edit mode <+++s+eeseesesestseeeeseeneeeeeeee + (P.139) This mode changes the settings of the Rhythm Set that is assigned to a Performance. A Rhythm Set is a group of individual Rhythm Tones, which are assigned to each key of the Keyboard, This mode also allows you to set various parameters that control and change the sound of each Rhythm Tone. 3 In addition to the modes mentioned above, there is a Write Mode (P.154) which allows you to store and organize your original sound program data, 2. TWO TYPES OF SOUND UNIT: (PATCHES AND PERFORMANCES) Patches and Tones "ek ae 'A Patch is the individual sound program unit of the JV-80. Patches themselves are made vp of Tones. is possible to create a Patch by using only a single Tone; however, sounds of remarkable ‘complexity and clarity can be created by using up to four Tones in a Patch. Doing this, however, limits the maximum aumber of voices (notes) that can sound simultaneously, since several voices are used to create a single Patch. The Tone processes the basic waveforms and forms a part of the Patch. ‘The structure ofthe Tone is shown below. ‘Sound Outout @ WG (Wave Generator) ---+-+++ ‘This calls up the waveforms stored in intemat memory, optional PCM cards or expansion boards, and generates the waveform to be used as the basic sonic building block. It also controls the pitch of the wavefoam atthe same time. Since itis the basic sound unit, itis erucal in determining the fundamental characteristics of the final sound, @ IVF (Time Variant Filter) ----eeevooss see sesso hiss used to shape the tonal uae ofthe sound by procesing the orginal waveform generated by the Wave Generator.

By using upto seven Patches (the individual sound programs of the JV-80), andthe sound progrem set for percussion (Rhythm Set), an ensemble of sounds can be created. The group containing these Ptches and the Rhythm Set is called a Performance, Bach Performance is divided into separate sections, called Parts, and Patches are assigned to Parts 1—7, with the Rhythm Set assigned to Part 8. By changing the volume balance andthe relative pitch among the pars, the total sound of the Performance can be adjusted ‘The JV-80 has what ae calle “internal zones" and “transmit Zones" between the Patches and the internal device (the controllers ofthe JV-80). The internal zone processes the play data from the intemal device and sends them to the Patch. The transmit zone proccesses the play data ftom the intemal device and sends them through the MIDI OUT terminal. In this way, the eight Pers end instruments controlled over the MIDI channels can be played independently. Performan Internal Zone Transmit Zone Play date ‘Sounding MIDI OUT.

SOUND SOURCE AND CO! ‘The JV-80 has « built-in sound source that provides the sonic “building blocks” forthe sound. The keyboard and other various controllers (such as the sliders and pedals), are used 10 control the sound source, resulting in the final sound output.

This slider ean be used to control the came functions as the foot pedal, and can change the tonal uatity ofthe sound. ‘These are used to adjust various elements of the sound in realtime, You can determine or assign beforehand the parameters you wish to control dusing performance. The parameters which are controlled by the Parameter Sliders differ from those controlled by the foot pedals and the C1 slider. ‘The Parameter Sliders can also be used to set the parameters when creating of programming sounds.

The sound program that is selected (either from the pane! or remotely by MIDI program change) can be heard when performance (play) data is ‘received from the JV-80 itself or another device connected tothe MIDI IN terminal.

PLAYING A PERFORMANCE Wi What is the Performance Play mode? ;2)/* ‘When you play the JV-80 in the Performance Play mode, the performance deta controls the Patches through the intemal zone, and extemal MIDI data is controlled through the transmit zone. ‘The intemal device (the controllers of the JV-80), such as the Keyboard, controls the Patches assigned to each Part {or the intemal sound soutee, and also serves as 2 master keyboard which controls play data over eight MIDI channels through the transmit zone for the external device (MIDI). You cen also change the sound of Patches assigned to the Parts according fo how you play. Do this by setting the parameters of the Pats and intemaltransmit zones, matching tothe song and performance condition. Since data which is called up tothe temporary memory ares is used when a Performance ie selected, the original Performance in the intemal memory or DATA card will be retained, The data being used in the ‘emporaty area can be stored as a new Performance in the user memory.

They are not parameters ofthe Patch itself, but are parameters of e Part that apply relative changes to settings such as level, pan and pitch, which are already set forthe Patch, By controlling the Volume for each Pat, you can ax the sounds just as you would with an eighchannel mixer. It is possible to adjust the dynamic balance of the sounds by increasing the level ofthe Pact which plays the melody or shyt, for example. You can also finely adjust the relative levels ofall the Parts to create a well-balanced ensemble sound. The function can also be used for fading Parts in and out or for muting them. ‘The sound image moves left and right when the Pan function is operated, This is particularly effective for lead lines, ‘or in creating a sense of space by sweeping effect sounds to the left and right. ‘Assign the placement Ae @ NO level and tho pan e OR ‘There are two pilteh-related functions.
