Please read this manual if you wish make detailed changes to Voices on the reface DX.
Edit Mode
In Edit mode, you can make detailed adjustments to Voice settings.
NOTE
To change the algorithm, use the [ALGO] button from the FM section.
Edit mode is activated by pressing the [EDIT] button.
In Edit mode, you can use the [1] to [8] buttons from the VOICE SELECT/EDIT section as [OP1] to [OP4], [EG level], [EG

Changing detailed operator settings
1234
Set Operators 1 to 4 as follows.
1. Press the [EDIT] button to activate Edit mode.
2. Press one of the [OP1] to [OP4] buttons to select the operator you wish to set.
The setting screen for the corresponding operator is displayed.
3. If necessary, press the same button several times to select the required page from the setting screen. When a setting
screen contains multiple pages, they are indicated in the form “ ” (i.e., page 1 of 3 pages).
4. Adjust the operator’s settings by using the sliders and/or switches.
5. If necessary, you can also adjust other settings at this time.
For example, if you press the [OP2] button while page 3 from the Operator 1 Settings screen is displayed, page 3 from
the Operator 2 Settings screen is displayed.
Similarly, if you press the [EG level] or [EG rate] button while the Operator 2 Settings screen is displayed, you can make
EG adjustments for Operator 2.
6. When you have finished making settings, press the [EDIT] button once again to leave Edit mode.

1 OP (operator) ON or Off Turns the operator on and off.
Selects the frequency setting method.
The frequency is set as a ratio with respect to the standard pitch.
Ratio
2 MODE
Fixed
Specifies the frequency by using a number.
When MODE is set to
3 FREQ (Frequency)
4 DTUNE (Detune) -64 to 0 to +63
“Ratio”:
When MODE is set to
“Fixed”:
This frequency is also displayed as a ratio when you press the
[FREQ] button.
The frequency is fixed, regardless of which key is played.
This frequency is also displayed in Hertz (Hz) when you press the
[FREQ] button.
Specify a value with respect to the standard
value of 1.00. When this value is doubled,
0.500 to 31.99
1.000 to 9,772 Hz
Detunes the frequency set with “FREQ”. Slightly detuning the frequency produces a chorus-like effect.
the octave increases by one; when halved,
the octave drops by one.
This value is also displayed when you press
the [FREQ] button.
Specifies the frequency in Hertz (Hz).
This value is also displayed when you press
the [FREQ] button.

In the case of modulators, this changes the degree to which the carrier(s) are
modulated.
This value is also displayed when you press the [LEVEL] button.
Used to change the volume and/or tone based on how hard you play the keys.
There is no change when the setting is “0”. The higher the value, the greater the
degree of change.
Selects the feedback level.
From “+1” to “+127”, the waveform changes from sine to sawtooth; from “-1” to
“-127”, it changes from sine to square.
At “0”, no feedback is applied and the waveform retains its normal sine shape.
This value is also displayed when you press the [FB] button.
Sets how the speed of the EG changes based on the area of the keyboard being
played. The higher the value, the faster the EG changes for the high-pitch side
compared with the low-pitch side.
KSC (Keyboard Scaling) level setting (page 3)
With keyboard scaling, you can adjust the effect of the envelope based on the area of the keyboard being played. In this way, it is
possible to achieve a balance between tone and volume that is similar to that of acoustic instruments. The keyboard is divided in
two at the break point (fixed at C3 on the reface DX). The high-pitch side at the right is set by using the R Depth and the R
Curve; the low-pitch side at the left is set by using the L Depth and the L Curve.

LR
Sets the degree of keyboard scaling at the left side of the keyboard. When set to “0”, no
keyboard scaling is applied.
LIN (Linear) The depth changes in a linear fashion from the break point to the left of the keyboard.
EXP (Exponential)
The depth changes in an exponential fashion from the break point to the left of the keyboard.
LIN (Linear) The depth changes in a linear fashion from the break point to the right of the keyboard.
EXP (Exponential)
The depth changes in an exponential fashion from the break point to the right of the
keyboard.
Sets the degree of keyboard scaling at the right side of the keyboard. When set to “0”,
no keyboard scaling is applied.
