Portamento is an eect that creates a
smooth change in pitch from one note
to the next.
Portamento Time
This species the time over which
the pitch will change when using
portamento. Higher values will lengthen
the time over which the pitch will reach
the next note.
Volume
This species the volume of the tone.
Reverb
This eect adds the reverberation that
is characteristic of a performance in a
large hall. Higher values produce deeper
reverberation.
Release Time (*1)
This adjusts the time from note-o
(i.e., when you release the key) until
the sound disappears. Higher values
produce a longer release time.
Attack Time (*1)
This adjusts the sharpness (speed) at
which the sound begins. Higher values
produce a more gentle attack.
Cuto (*1)
Increasing the cuto value will make
the sound harder (brighter); decreasing
it will make the sound more mellow
(darker). Use this parameter to make
adjustments if the sound is too mued
or too bright.
Resonance (*1)
Increasing the resonance value will
produce a distinctive tonal character
that is typical of a synthesizer. If you
want to emphasize the eect of
resonance, it’s a good idea to slightly
lower the cuto.
*1 The values you specify here are an adjustment relative to the value
assigned by each tone. If this value is set to 0, the parameter will be as
specied by the tone’s own settings.
4. When the parameter value appears, continue
holding down the [SHIFT] button and use the
[INC/+] / [DEC/–] (OCTAVE [+] / [–]) buttons to edit

IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply: Use of Batteries
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is
being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled
by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a
motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical
appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this
unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is
not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect
a power supply noise lter between this unit and the
electrical outlet.
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long
hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause
for concern.
• The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the unit’s
power consumption is relatively high. Should you prefer
to use batteries, please use the nickel hydrogen type.
• When installing or replacing batteries, always turn o
the power on this unit and disconnect any other devices
you may have connected. This way, you can prevent
malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn o the

and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
• If batteries are installed, disconnecting or reconnecting
the power cord at the AC outlet or disconnecting the DC
plug from the Lucina AX-09’s rear panel while the power is
on will cause the power to turn o. You must turn o the
power before you connect or disconnect the power cord
or AC adaptor.
Placement
• Using the unit near power ampliers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To
alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit;
or move it farther away from the source of interference.
• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity
of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving
or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you
experience such problems, you should relocate such
wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this
unit, or switch them o.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near
devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
• When moved from one location to another where the
temperature and/or humidity is very dierent, water
droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit.
Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use
the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the
unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the
condensation has completely evaporated.
• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard.
This can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing
to produce sound.
• Depending on the material and temperature of the
surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may
discolor or mar the surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet
to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make
sure that the unit will not slip or move accidentally.
Maintenance
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth
or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To
remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a
mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe
the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.
Repairs and Data
• Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s
memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs.
Important data should always be backed up the USB
memory, or written down on paper (when possible).
During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data.
However, in certain cases (such as when circuitry related
to memory itself is out of order), we regret that it may not
be possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes no
liability concerning such loss of data.
Using USB Memories
• Carefully insert the USB memory all the way in-until it is
rmly in place.
• Never touch the terminals of the USB memory. Also, avoid
getting the terminals dirty.
• USB memories are constructed using precision
components; handle the cards carefully, paying particular
note to the following.
• To prevent damage to the cards from static
electricity, be sure to discharge any static electricity
from your own body before handling the cards.
• Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact
with the contact portion of the cards.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong shock
or vibration.
• Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed
vehicles, or other such locations.
• Do not allow cards to become wet.
• Do not disassemble or modify the cards.
Handling DVDs
• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside
(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty DVD
discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean
using a commercially available disk cleaner.
Strap Holder Precautions
• Never unscrew the strap pins to avoid damaging
the Lucina AX-09’s plastic housing, which eventually
compromises overall stability and safety.
• To avoid dropping the unit and damaging it or causing
injuries to yourself or other people, be sure to doublecheck whether the supplied strap is securely attached to
the two pins before using the Lucina AX-09.
• Roland recommends installing commercially available
strap locks for guitar to guard against damage and
injuries caused by the strap coming loose while your are
playing.
Additional Precautions
• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be
irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the
improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against
the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that
you periodically save a backup copy of important data
you have stored in the USB memory.
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the
contents of data that was stored on a USB memory
or the internal memory once it has been lost. Roland
Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss
of data.
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s
buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using
its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to
malfunctions.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the
connector itself-never pull on the cable. This way you will
avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal
elements.
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the
unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use
headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about
those around you (especially when it is late at night).
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the
box (including padding) that it came in, if possible.
Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging
materials.
• Use only the specied expression pedal (EV-5; sold
separately). By connecting any other expression pedals,
you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this
unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to
be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information
on cable specications, contact the manufacturer of
the cable.
• The usable range of D Beam controller will become
extremely small when used under strong direct sunlight.
Please be aware of this when using the D Beam controller
outside.
• The explanations in this manual include illustrations that
depict what should typically be shown by the display.

Funktionen
Sounds für garantierten Spielspaß
• Die insgesamt 144 Sounds decken viele Stilrichtungen ab und enthalten nicht nur
Synthesizersounds, sondern auch Klavier-, Orgel-, Streicher-, Blechblasinstrumten- und
Gitarrensounds.
• Darüber hinaus gibt es sechs sehr ausdrucksstarke „Spezielle Sounds“ (Special Tones).
Diese sechs hochwertigen Sounds („Synth Lead“, „Poly Synth“, „Synth Bass“, „Jazz Scat“, „Violin“ und
„Trombone“) wurden speziell für den Lucina AX-09 entwickelt.
Einfache Bedienung
• Die Bedienung ist sehr einfach. Schalten Sie einfach das Gerät ein, und wählen Sie einen Sound aus.
• Der Lucina AX-09 ist leicht, trendy und kann mit Batterien betrieben werden. Sie können deshalb
überall und jederzeit mit dem Instrument spielen. Den Lucina AX-09 können Sie beim Spielen mit
dem Gurt über die Schulter hängen, was ein aktiveres und vielseitigeres Spielen ermöglicht.
Mehr Spielspaß als je zuvor
• Dank des DBeam-Controllers, des Modulationshebels und des Touch-Controllers haben Sie die
einzigartigen, ausdrucksstarken Funktionen eines traditionellen Synthesizers zur Verfügung.
• Sie können auf einfache Weise zu Ihren Lieblingssongs spielen, indem Sie entweder Ihren
mobilen Audio-Player an die EXT IN-Buchse anschließen oder einen USB-Speicher anschließen
und von diesem direkt eine Audiodatei abspielen.
