Main Features
High-Performance Synthesizer
Sound Source
64-Voice Polyphony and 16-Part
Multitimbrality
The XP-30 is a 16-part multitimbral sound source that
produces up to 64 simultaneous polyphonic notes.
Effectively used with an external sequencer or computer, the
XP-30s true creative potential for music production becomes
apparent (p. 41).
Powerful Onboard Effects
Advanced DSP (Digital Signal Processor) technology
provides a wide array of studio quality effects. In addition to
the Multi-Effects (EFX) section that features 40 different
types of effects, the XP-30 also features an independent
chorus unit and reverb unit (p. 61).
Extensive Tone Structure Range
Ten different Structures are available for combining basic
sound elements for more flexible sound making. A ring
modulator and booster enhance creating sounds (p. 70).
An Array of Arpeggio and Cutting
Options
With the [ARPEGGIO] on, you can create various arpeggios
and simulate cutting techniques simply by pressing a chord.
You can even specify the rhythmical feel you want (p. 56).
General MIDI System Compatibility
The XP-30 provides a mode compatible with the General
MIDI System, the standard format for desktop music (DTM)
systems, and can play back commercially available General
MIDI System compatible song data (p. 124).
Expandability
Allows Two Wave Expansion Boards
to be Installed at the Same Time
Up to two SR-JV80 series Wave Expansion Boards can be
installed simultaneously, allowing you to expand the range
of available sounds (p. 16, 20).
Data from Popular Wave Expansion
Boards Already Onboard
The data of the three popular Wave Expansion Boards, the
SR-JV80-02 Orchestral, SR-JV80-09 Session, and SR-JV80-
11 Techno Collection is onboard.
This means that for practical purposes, you can have
simultaneous access to the sounds of up to five Wave
Expansion Boards, and can draw on a vast quantity of
waveform data as material for creating your sounds.
Quick and Intuitive Operation
Enhanced Operational Ease
Dedicated buttons are provided for each function to simplify
operation. The group of function buttons located below the
display allow intuitive editing (p. 43).
Featuring the Patch Search and Phrase
Preview Functions that were Popular
on the JV-2080
The Patch Search function (p. 32, 48) lets you rapidly find the
patch you want simply by specifying a patch category. By
pressing [PHRASE PREVIEW], you can then hear the
selected patch play a phrase suitable for that type of patch.
(Phrase Preview function, p. 33, 49)
Use the Sound Palette Sliders to Make
Quick Changes in the Sound
The four sliders in the PALETTE section let you make
realtime changes in tone and volume while you play (p. 36,
50, 54).
Computer Interface Connector
A special computer cable makes it easy for you to connect the
XP-30 to your computer, so that you can enjoy ensemble
playing (p. 134).
General MIDI System
The General MIDI system is a set of recommendations
which seeks to provide a way to go beyond the
limitations of proprietary designs, and standardize the
MIDI capabilities of sound generating devices. Sound
generating devices and music files that meets the
General MIDI standard bears the General MIDI logo
( ). Music files bearing the General MIDI logo can be
played back using any General MIDI sound generating
unit to produce essentially the same musical
performance.
