●
If the LED of the ONE TOUCH push button is lit, the first row of STYLE push buttons calls up one of the eight pages of which the One Touch
memories are made up.
●
If the LEDs of the SET DRUM and MANUAL DRUM push buttons are lit, the first six VOICES push buttons are used to select the banks inclu-
ding ten Drum Kits each.
PUSH BUTTONS ON THE CENTRAL RIGHT-HAND AREA
RAM/FLASH This is used to immediately call up any sounds from the RAM (loaded from the Disk by means of the Sound Load function)!
USER VOICE If the LED is lit, then the VOICES push buttons call up the 128 User Voice timbres, i.e. the bank of timbres that can be pro-
grammed by the user, in groups of ten at a time.
DRAWBAR If the LED is lit, an organ timbre corresponds to each single VOICES push button.
1 TOUCH When the LED is lit, ten timbres of the first of the eight groups available are displayed. The One Touch Solo function is used
to save the most frequently used Voices so that they can be called up easier rather than having to first select the group and
then a timbre from within it.
VOCALIZER EDIT This is used to gain access to the programming parameters of the Vocalizer from the main page.
VOCALIZER ON/OFF
When the LED is lit, the Vocalizer is enabled on the Voice or the audio signal received via the Mic 1 (XLR) input.
PUSH BUTTONS ON THE RIGHT HAND AREA
ON LINE EFFECT A number of modulation effects can be assigned to the Right section, together with the Reverb and standard chorus. The
On Line Effect page is used to enable up to four modulation effects simultaneously and also to control the effects that will
process the microphone input, the parameters of which can be called up using the F10 MICRO EDIT push button. The LED
of the ON LINE EFFECT push button will light up when the microphone input signal is too high and could therefore be distor-
ted in the pre-amplifier stage.
SOUND LOAD This is used to enable a short-cut for loading new sampled sounds from hard disk, at a maximum of 16 Mbs directly from the
Master Folder, the LED of which will light up automatically when the SOUND LOAD push button is pressed. To load .WAV or
.MSP samples, select F8 Dir WAV which gives access to the dedicated folder. To return to .INS samples, select F9 Dir
INSTRUM to load single files, or using F9 again, select Dir Block to load groups of single .INS files in one go.
PORTAMENTO When the LED is lit, the Portamento is enabled, namely the sliding from one note to another , the time of which can be pro-
grammed.
PIANIST When the LED is lit the chords are accepted over the full length of the keyboard, including the Right section. This function
has been devised for proper piano playing using both hands over the whole keyboard and still fully exploiting the Arranger
. If the same timbre is required right along the whole keyboard, for example the piano, the lowest note on the keyboard ( E
0) must be set as the Split point using the dedicated push button. There are two different chord acknowledgement methods
that can be chosen in the Utility menu. The default setting is Standard.
STYLE SETTING For each style Ketron has provided ten settings, enabling just as many timbres to be called up for the Style lead part. When
the LED is lit the ten timbres pre-set for that style are displayed. The timbres assigned to a Style can be changed
.
DEMO & HIT By pressing the PIANIST and STYLE SETTING push buttons together at the same time access is gained to the folder of the
hard disk called Demo & Hit, which can store both demo files and any other Midi file up to a total of 999 files. In contrast to
SONG PLAY, Demo & Hit is used to immediately play a Midi file by simply selecting it using the F1-F10 function push but-
tons and it allows a large number of Midi files to be ready to be played. Press EXIT to exit from Demo & Hit. Considering
that Demo & Hit refers to a specific folder on the hard disk, the Midi files within Demo & Hit can be copied and erased with
the normal procedures dedicated to the management of the hard disk. The Right and Lower part can be played while a MIDI
file is being played back with the SPLIT push button still enabled.
#
In this version of the operating system this special push button is used together with * to disable the Sustain in the Pianist mode.
* This is situated on the FOLK push button of the STYLES push buttons. It works when the Demo & Hit function is in use
where, when the Midi file selected is Stopped, it is used to put the Midi files within the folder in the desired order with the
possibility of replacing them or cancelling their position. It is also used in SONG PLAY when in the Juke-Box function where,
if it is pressed, the Chain Select command appears for creating temporary chains of Midi files to be reproduced one after
the other. Furthermore, in the Pianist enabled mode, when pressed together with the # push button it disables the Sustain.
LEAD The FILL 1 push button has another function when the Demo & Hit function is in use. It is used to cut-out the Lead track,
usually set to the MIDI channel 4 within the Midi file.
DRUM & BASS The FILL 2 push button has another function when the Demo & Hit function is in use. It mutes the volume of all the tracks
with the exception of the drum and bass ones.
