EDIT PROGRAM
OVERIDE FX This allows you to send individual keygroups to the effects by overriding
the main program’s effects routing. The default will be MULTI (i.e. the
routing uses the effects buss selection set when the program is placed
in a MULTI) but you may also select OFF (i.e. the selected keygroup is
not routed to the effects) or FX1, FX2, RV3 or RV4.
FX SEND LEVEL This allows you to set the amount of effect for each keygroup. In this
way, you can, for example, send individual drums in different amounts to
the effects. Furthermore, each drum could be routed to a different effect
(i.e. bass drum to a tight gated reverb, snare to a large hall, toms to a
medium hall, etc.).
SELECTING KEYGROUPS
In the top right hand corner of every keygroup page is the keygroup selector. Touch F9 and use the
DATA wheel to select the keygroup you wish to edit.
This key also has a drop down menu that allows you to switch between editing just single individual
keygroups or ALL keygroups. The selection is shown clearly in the keygroup select key:
You may still select individual keygroups using the DATA wheel but any edits you make will affect
all keygroups in the program.
TIP: A quick way of selecting keygroups is to press AND HOLD F1 and play a note on your
MIDI keyboard (or other controller). This will select that note’s keygroup. For example, in a
program with five keygroups spanning C0-B1, C2-B2, C3-B3, C4-B4, C5-G8, playing G3 will
select keygroup 3 - i.e. the one spanning C3-B3.
In the case where keygroups are layered or overlap, pressing and holding EDIT and repeatedly
playing the note will select each keygroup in turn.
