Overview of the RD-2000

Basic Organization of the RD-2000
Controller Section
This section includes the keyboard, the Pitch Bend/Modulation lever, the panel knobs, the sliders, and any pedal connected to the rear panel. Actions such as pressing and releasing of keys on the keyboard, depressing a damper pedal, and so forth, are converted to MIDI messages and sent to the sound generator section, or to an external MIDI device.
Sound generator/Effect section
This is the section that produces and modifies the sound.
Performance data from the controller section is converted into audio signal, which is output from the OUTPUT jacks or PHONES jack.
V-Piano Technology sound generator (only zone 1 can be selected) (MD)
For sounds beginning with S01, this sound generator reproduces the sound of a piano based on its structure.
NOTE
This sound generator does not support Modulation FX, Tremolo/Amp Sim, or Tone/Program Remain.

Super NATURAL (SN)/PCM sound generator
This sound generator lets you play a variety of high-quality sounds, including Super NATURAL sounds that faithfully reproduce the character and behavior of musical instruments.
The RD-2000 contains more than a thousand sounds.
Effects
Each zone 1–4 provides a Modulation FX and Tremolo/Amp Sim that can be set independently for each zone.
There are also reverb, delay, and EQ that can be used in common by all zones.

About Memory

“Memories” are locations where settings such as programs are stored.
There are three types of memory: “temporary memory”, “rewritable memory”, and “nonheritable memory”.

Temporary Memory
Temporary area
The tones, programs, scenes, or controller settings that you select using the panel TONE buttons or PROGRAM button are recalled into the temporary area.
When you play the keyboard, sounds are produced according to the settings that are in the temporary area.
The settings in the temporary area will be lost when you turn off the power or call up other settings. If you want to keep the data that’s in the temporary area, you must store it into rewritable memory.

Rewritable Memory
System memory
System memory contains system parameter settings that specify how the RD-2000 is to operate.
To store system parameters, save the system settings (p. 26).
User memory
Programs and scenes can be stored in user memory (Program Write: p. 23).
USB flash drive
You can save all of the programs in a single file (Backup Save: p. 27).
The USB flash drive is also used as the storage location for audio recording.
Non-rewritable Memory
Preset memory
The demo songs and the tones are stored in preset memory; they cannot be rewritten.

Units of Sound

Tone
Tones are an ideal way to select and play a sound.
The sounds that you select using the TONE buttons are called “tones”. Tones can be assigned to each of the eight zones (zone 1–8) and played.
You can play multiple zones simultaneously from the keyboard, or play them in separate regions of the keyboard.
You can use the Designer function (p. 21) to edit a tone to your taste. You can store an edited tone in a program.
Some of the tones are “rhythm sets” which contain multiple percussion instrument sounds.
A rhythm set will produce a different percussion instrument sound for each key (note number) that you press.
Program
Programs let you store a combination of settings and multiple sounds.
The sounds that you select using the PROGRAM button are called “programs”.
Programs contain settings for the tones that are assigned to the zones, along with settings that are common to all zones (such as reverb, delay, and EQ). You can store 300 programs containing settings that you’ve edited to your taste.
Scene
Scenes are an ideal way to store and order favorite tones or programs, or when using an external MIDI device.
The sounds that you select using the SCENE button are called “scenes”.
Scenes let you store performance settings that you’ve edited to your taste. Up to 100 scenes that you save can be recalled from the TONE buttons, with ten scenes for each button.
You can use scenes to easily recall settings in the order of the songs in your live performance, or to control or set up an external device.
It’s also easy to store tones or programs without change, modify their sound or settings, or change the order in which they are recalled.

Operation Guide

Adjusting the Overall Volume

1. Turn the [MASTER VOLUME] knob.

Adjusting the Volume of Each Zone
Selecting the zone to adjust
Select the zone whose settings you want to adjust.

1. Press one of the SELECT [S1]–[S8] buttons.

MEMO
You can’t select multiple zones.

1. Press the INT/EXT [S1]–[S8] buttons to turn each zone on (lit) or off (unlit).

MEMO
By holding down the [SHIFT] button and pressing an INT/EXT [S1]–[S8] button, you can switch what the knob and slider of each zone will control (the RD-2000: lit red, or an external device: lit green).

NOTE
Effects cannot be applied to zones 5–8.
If zones 5–8 are also assigned as internal zones, and if an extremely large amount of data is being produced by the controllers, a substantial burden is placed on the RD-2000, possibly making it unable to process the performance data  from the keyboard.

Using an Assigned Function to Modify the Sound (MOD WHEEL 1/2)
A variety of functions are assigned to the modulation wheels (p. 21).
By moving the modulation wheels while you perform, you can control the assigned function.
Changing the Sound’s Pitch in Real Time (Pitch bend lever)
While playing the keyboard, move the lever to the left to lower the pitch, or to the right to raise the pitch. This is known as Pitch Bend.
If you move the lever away from yourself while also moving it to left or right, the pitch bend and modulation effects will be applied simultaneously.
Adding Vibrato or Dynamics (Modulation lever)
You can also apply vibrato by manipulating the lever away from you. This is known as Modulation.
If you move the lever away from yourself while also moving it to left or right, the pitch bend and modulation effects will be applied simultaneously.
Disabling the Button (Panel Lock)
By engaging the Panel Lock function, you can disable panel functions.
This prevents settings from being changed inadvertently on stage or in other such situations.

1. Hold down the [MENU] button and press the [ENTER] button.
   The panel lock popup screen appears for a time and then disappear; then an icon indicating the panel lock status appears in the upper right of the TONE screen and the PROGRAM screen or the upper left of
   the SCENE screen.

2. To disengage the Panel Lock function, press the [EXIT] button twice in succession.

Transposing Your Performance (Transpose)
You can adjust the transpose setting in semitone steps over a range of -48–0–+48 relative to C4.

1. Hold down the [TRANSPOSE] button for several seconds.
   The current setting is shown.

2. Hold down the [TRANSPOSE] button and use the [DEC][INC] buttons or the keyboard to specify the amount of transposition.

Creating the Organ Tones
NOTE
These settings are available only when a TW-Organ sound is selected.
Some organ feature nine “harmonic bars” that can be drawn in and out, and by using the bars in different combinations of positions, a variety of different tones can be created. Different “Feet” are assigned to each bar, with the pitches of  the sounds being determined by these “Feet”.
You can create of tones using the Layer LEVEL sliders just as you operate the harmonic bars.
What are “ feet?”
Feet basically refers to the lengths of pipe used in pipe organs.
The length of pipe used to produce the reference pitch (the fundamental) for the keyboard is eight feet. Reducing the pipe to half its length produces a pitch one octave higher; conversely, doubling the pipe length creates a pitch one octave lower.
Therefore, a pipe producing a pitch one octave below that of the reference of 8’ (eight feet) would be 16’; for one octave above the 0reference, the pipe would be 4’, and to take the pitch up yet another octave it would be shortened to 2’.

1. Use the SELECT [S1]–[S8] buttons to select the zone to which a TW Organ sound (a sound for which the icon is shown) is assigned; then hold down the [SHIFT] button and press the “SCENE” button.
   The Tone Wheel & Designer Menu screen of the selected layer appears.

2. Move the LAYER LEVEL sliders.
   The sound changes in tandem with the indication in the screen.
   You can use the cursor [K] [J] buttons to switch between harmonic bar and percussion switch groups.
   MEMO
   Percussion adds a sound with a sense of attack at the beginning of the note, giving the sound a crisper feel. The attack sound will change depending on this value.

MEMO

• You can also use the cursor [K] [J] buttons to move the cursor to the Modulation FX or Tremolo/Amp Simulator menu items.
• When the cursor is located at Modulation FX or Tremolo/Amp Simulator, you can go to the corresponding item by pressing the [ENTER] button. For details on the effect parameters, refer to “Parameter Guide (English)” (PDF). For  details on how to obtain the PDF, refer to “Obtaining PDF Manuals” on the front cover.
• When a TW-Organ sound is selected, turning the [TONE COLOR] knob will move all of the harmonic bars simultaneously.

Changing the undulation of the organ tone (Rotary Effect)
While the Tone Wheel & Designer Menu screen is displayed, you can change the undulation rate of the Rotary effect with the Pitch Bend lever. The Rotary effect is an effect that recreates the sound of the rotating speakers used to augment  the sound of an organ.
Moving the pitch bend lever to left or right will toggle the Rotary effect between fast and slow regardless of the direction in which you move the lever.
MEMO
This Pitch Bend Lever setting is effective only in the Tone Wheel & Designer Menu screen.
