Creating a Performance
A Performance allows you to use multiple Patches at the same time. It can be used to layer Patches
together or split them and assign them to various notes on the keyboard. You can also assign Patches to
different MIDI channels for use with an external sequencer. Use the following procedure to create a
erformance:
P
1) Press PLAY to choose the Performance Play screen. If the current Performance is empty, the Patch
name for each Part will be set to “Off.”
2) Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the Patch name (Off) for Part 1.
3) Use the VALUE DIAL to select the desired Patch.
4) Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the Patch name (Off) for Part 2.
5) Use the VALUE DIAL to select the desired Patch.
6) Repeat steps 4 and 5 to select Patches for the remaining Parts as desired.
Setting the Split Ranges in a Performance
One common performance technique is to assign different Patches to different keys on the keyboard.
That way, the various sounds (Patches) can be accessed quickly in a live situation. Use the following
rocedure to assign multiple Patches to different ranges of the keyboard:
p
1) Press F2 to access the “Play Page 2” display. The upper and lower note ranges for each Part will be
displayed under “Limits.”
2) Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the Part whose note range you wish to set.
3) Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the parameter under “KB” and use the VALUE dial to select “On.”
4) Hold F3 and press the desired note on the keyboard to set the lower note range.
5) Hold F4 and press the desired note on the keyboard to set the upper note range.
6) Repeat steps 2-5 to assign note ranges to any additional Parts.
A typical Performance setup might look like this:
Beatloop
Bass
Vocal Hits
In this example, we have assigned a bass sound, a beatloop, and some vocal hits to various keys on the
keyboard. In some cases you will want to assign a Patch (such as a beatloop) to a single note on the
eyboard. This can be done by assigning the lower and upper limits to the same note.
k
NOTE: Keep in mind that the Original Key that you set for the Sample may not match the note range
you set here. The Original Key is the MIDI note that the Sample was set to when it was first recorded
(see page 75 of the manual for more information about the Original Key). This may cause some
differences in the tuning of your Sample. You can use the Shift parameter (next to the Limits settings
on the Performance Play Page 2) to adjust the tuning as desired.
Assigning Pads
Each of the Patches within a Performance can also be assigned to one of the 8 PAD buttons (A-H).
Multiple Patches can be assigned to each PAD button with the exception of PAD H. Only one Part can be
assigned to the PAD H button, which also determines the Patch assigned to the Scratch wheel. Use the
ollowing procedure to assign Patches to the PAD buttons:
f
1) Press F2 until “Play Page 1” is displayed.
2) Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the desired Patch.
3) Hold F3 and press the desired PAD button (A-H).
4) Repeat steps 2-3 to assign additional Patches to the PAD buttons.
