Common Menu
Press this button to enter the Common menu. Here you can adjust 3 parameters from the Oscillator section
which affect the basic performance of the patch.
Soft Knob Parameter Meaning
#1 Key Mode When set to ‘Poly’ (default), the patch will play many simultaneous voices
or chords. Select any of the ‘Mono’ modes if you want the patch to play
monophonically (only one note will sound, no matter how many keys you
press). Mono mode is generally desirable for leads and bass patches. Please
refer to the parameter reference manual for full details on the different Mono
modes.
If you set Key Mode to ‘Hold’. the notes will hold indefinitely, even after you
release the key.
#2 Portamento Use Portamento to create a ‘glissando’ or pitch glide between different
notes. The higher the value, the longer it will take for each new note to reach
its correct pitch.
#3 Transpose Use Transpose to adjust the overall pitch in semitones. Use steps of 12 if you
just want to change the octave, or better still, use SHIFT+Value 2, which is
only scaled in octaves.
Multi Menu
This is where you will find all the parameters relating to each Part in Multi mode. Use the Parameter < > keys
to move through the different pages.
For detailed information on these parameters, please refer to the relevant chapter in the reference manual.
••
Creating a layered/split Multi
The main thing to remember here is to make sure that each of the Parts is responding to the same MIDI
channel (usually you’ll want this to be channel 01). Having selected the patches you want on each Part with
the Bank and Program parameters, you can create layered performances by leave the Low Key and High
Key parameters at their defaults, or you can split the keyboard into ‘zones’ by adjusting these values accordingly.
Of course it is possible to have a mixture of layers and splits within the same Multi, should you
wish it.
