Tracks
A Track is the smallest part of a Performance and each type of Performance contains a
number of tracks that correspond to the playing mode to which the Performance is associ-
ated.
A sound can be assigned to each track; the display always shows the sounds assigned to
the keyboard sections (Upper 1, Upper 2, Lower). It is also possible to see the sounds
assigned to all the tracks of the current Performance. The Tracks are divided into two
groups: 01-08 and 09-16. If the display arrowhead shows the Song function selected, the
function button F9 allows you to switch from the track set 01-08 to 09-16.
The Sounds assigned to the tracks are displayed as Program Change numbers. The bar
graphs shown directly under the Program Change numbers represent the track Volume
levels.
The status (ON or OFF) of the Upper 1, Upper 2 and Lower tracks can be changed by
intervening directly on the corresponding section activators (Upper 1, Upper 2, Lower). The
ON/OFF status of all the other tracks of the Performance (except the real time tracks) is
changed by pressing the corresponding function buttons repeatedly (provided that the PERF
function is not shown selected with the arrowhead). The ON/OFF status of the tracks is
shown by the track name (e.g. ‘Drum’) which is displayed when ON or cancels when OFF.
Sounds
The WK2 sounds fall in two categories:
• ROM-Sounds
• Drumkits
• Samples
ROM-SOUNDS
The WK2 contains 444 sample-based ROM Sounds (including 17 Drumkits).
The Sample Ram allows you to load one or more samples in memory, to increase the sound
potential of the instrument.
DRUMKITS
Drumkits assign a different percussive sound to each note of the keyboard. Banks 2 and 3
of the PERCUSSIVE Sound Group contain 16 Drumkits. Bank 4 contains a special drumkit
(location 112) configured with some extra special sounds (DrumSFX).
SAMPLES
The WK2 can load samples in WK2, PK7, WK3 and CD formats. Press the SAMPLES
panel button to recall a Sample; the display shows the first available sample in memory. By
using the – and + buttons of the right numeric selection keypad, you can scroll through all
the Samples available.
