The JUPITER-80’s System Settings

D Beam/Slider

Parameter Value Explanation

D Beam

D Beam Sens 0–127

The higher the value you set for this

parameter, the more sensitive the D

Beam controller becomes.

Slider

Slider Mode

Species how the sliders will operate.

DIRECT

When you move a slider, control data

indicating its position will always be

output.

CATCH

When you move a slider, control data will

start being transmitted only when the

current value of the parameter has been

reached.

Keyboard

Parameter Value Explanation

Keyboard

Keyboard Velocity

Species the velocity transmitted when a key is played.

REAL

The transmitted velocity value will

correspond to the force with which you strike

the key.

1–127

The transmitted velocity value will be xed,

regardless of the force with which you strike

the key.

Keyboard Velocity

Curve

LIGHT

The keyboard will have a lighter-feeling

touch. Since you’ll be able to reach fortissimo

() without having to play as strongly as

with the MEDIUM setting, the keyboard will

feel lighter. This setting makes it easier for

people with reduced nger strength to play

the keyboard.

MEDIUM This is the standard keyboard touch setting.

HEAVY

The key will have a heavier-feeling touch.

Since you’ll need to play more strongly than

with the MEDIUM setting in order to reach

fortissimo (), the keyboard will feel heavier.

This setting allows you to use your playing

dynamics to add more expression to your

performances.

Keyboard Velocity

Sens

-63–+63

This is a ne adjustment to the keyboard

sensitivity that’s applied after the Keyboard

Velocity Curve setting. Higher values will

cause a greater velocity value to be transmit-

ted for a key-strike of the same force.

Aftertouch Sens 0–100

This species the aftertouch sensitiv-

ity. Higher values make it easier to apply

aftertouch. Normally, you can leave this set

at “100.”

Sound

Parameter Value Explanation

Sound

Local Switch OFF, ON

Species whether the controller section

(keyboard, pitch bend/modulation lever,

[S1] [S2] buttons, D Beam controller, pedals,

etc.) will be connected to the internal sound

generator. Normally, this should be left at

“ON.” Turn it “OFF” if you want to use the

JUPITER-80’s controllers only to control an

external sound generator.

Master Tune

415.3–466.2

[Hz]

Sets the JUPITER-80’s overall tuning (the

frequency of the A4 key)

Master Key Shift -24–+24

Shifts the JUPITER-80’s overall pitch range in

semitone steps.

Master Level 0–127

Sets the JUPITER-80’s overall volume (except

for the signal from the USB COMPUTER

connector).

Output Gain -12–+12 [dB]

Adjusts the JUPITER-80’s overall output

gain (except for the signal from the USB

COMPUTER connector). If you’re playing a

fewer number of voices, boosting this setting

can help you obtain an optimal output level

when recording on an external device.

Song Level 0–127

Sets the volume of the USB memory song

player.

Tone Remain OFF, ON

Species whether the currently sounding

notes will remain (ON) or not (OFF) when you

select a dierent sound.

* In some cases, the eect sound might not

remain.

Using the Local Switch setting

If you’re using an external sequencer with the JUPITER-80’s

keyboard controller section and sound generator section,

you should turn the Local Switch OFF. Here’s why.

We need to connect these sections in the following order:

the JUPITER-80’s keyboard

external sequencer the

JUPITER-80’s sound generator. Since the JUPITER-80’s

keyboard section and sound generator section are connected

internally, such a connection order would normally be

impossible. However, if the Local Switch is OFF, the JUPITER-

80’s keyboard section and its sound generator section will be

independent, allowing you to use an external sequencer as

shown here in the illustration.
