 ADJUSTING  CUTOFF

The CUTOFF control will aff ect diff erent sounds in diff er-
ent ways. This is explained more fully below.

 ELECTRIC ORGAN

Maximum value will give a "tone wheel" sound, while 
minimum value will give an "LSI" organ sound (see be-
low).

 PIPE ORGAN

As the value is raised, you will hear sounds being added 
from low to high. The eff ect is that of stops gradually be-
ing added on a pipe organ (see the illustration below).

 Other voices

Adjust the Cutoff  Frequency. The more the value is 
raised, the higher the Cutoff  Frequency will be.

 USING THE INTERNAL SOUND GENERATOR

As mentioned previously, this unit has a built-in Sound Generator. Th

 e 

LINE OUT jack allows you to hear the audio from the built-in Pedal 
Voices. Th

  e following paragraphs explain each control on the unit re-

lated to the built-in Pedal Voices.

ADJUSTING RELEASE

The RELEASE knob works as follows.

Selecting a Pedal Voice

 VOICE selector

Allows you to select one of the following 5 built-in Pedal Voices.

1. ELECTRIC ORGAN

 electric 

organ.

2. PIPE ORGAN

 

traditional pipe organ Pedal registration.

3. SYNTHESIZER BASS

 

portamento & sweeping synth bass.

4. FINGERED BASS

 

electric bass guitar.

5. UPRIGHT BASS

 

acoustic or uplight bass (double bass).

Adjusting the Sound

VOLUME knob

Allows you to controls the volume of the built-in Pedal Voices (LINE 
OUT). Turn this control to the right to increase the Volume, and to
the left  to decrease the Volume.

CUTOFF knob

Allows you to adjust the Cutoff  Frequency. As the value is increased,
the Cutoff Frequency becomes higher and the sound becomes
brighter. Maximum is “10,” minimum at “0.”

NOTE:  For details on how the cutoff  works, see 

"ADJUSTING CUTOFF" on 

the right.

RELEASE knob (Pedal Sustain)

Allows you to determine how long a pedal note will continue to
sound aft er a pedal is released. As the value is increased, the release
time becomes longer. At “0,” the tone will stop immediately when a
pedal is released.

How to control the parameters by MIDI

You can also select Pedal Voices and control parameters from an exter-
nal MIDI controller.

VOICE

NOTE:  The [VOLUME] is not digitally controlled.

Connect the MIDI controller to this unit as shown above, and set the 
MIDI channel of the unit to the same channel as the MIDI controller. 
You can then send the above MIDI messages from your controller.

NOTE:  You can change the MIDI channel of this unit. See P.9.

Please consult the Manual for your MIDI controller to learn how to send 
MIDI parameters.

RANGE OF EACH PEDAL VOICE

As shown in the diagram below, the Note Ranges of the 
Pedal Voices are the same in all units; however, both the 
XPK-200G and the XPK-200GL will sound seven (7) more 
notes than the XPK-130G because of the expanded 
number of pedal notes.

NOTE:  Actual sound range is 1 octave lower than the
