and/or zoned across the keyboard. In the case of a LH/RH split such as
you are describing, you should go to (3.3-1) [KeyZ]-[Key] ☞ Parameter
Guide, Page 52. Here you can see which timbres are assigned to the RH
(also use the overview map on (3.3-3) [KeyZ]-[Review], ☞ Parameter
Guide, Page 53). After identifying which timbre(s) are assigned to the
Right Hand, you can go to the Prog/Mix page and assign new programs
(2.1-1) [P/M]-[Prog] ☞ Parameter Guide, Page 48.
10. Can I change the transpose of a timbre separately from
everything else?
There is a Transpose value for each timbre:
(3.1-3) [Prm 1] - [Pitch] -> Transpose
☞ Parameter Guide, Page 50.
11. Can I use Combination sounds in Sequencer Mode?
Yes. There is a “Copy From Combi” UTILITY that lets you copy a Combi
completely into the Sequencer. In the Sequencer Mode, press [F8]
[UTILITY]. Cursor to “Copy From Combi”, and then press [F8] again.
Enter the Combi you want to copy with the BANK key and keypad, and
then Cursor to highlight “with Effects”. Rotate the DIAL to check the box,
and press [F8] to confirm OK. ☞ Parameter Guide, Page 72.
See also Section 6, #2 for how to do this with a Program.
12. What does Page (3.1-2) Force Osc Mode do exactly? Can I use
it to save voices (polyphony?)
This chooses Oscillator 1 or 2 (or BOTH) from a 2 Osc program.
Typically, of course, you would want this set to “BOTH”, if you want the
program to sound like it does normally.
But when programming Combis, if you layer a bunch of timbres together,
you can quickly run out of polyphony. A 2-Osc program uses 2 times the
number of voices. If you were to layer 4 timbres each using 2 oscillators,
every note you press would use 8 voices! By selecting only one of the
oscillators for certain timbres, you can still bring in elements of sound
that you might want, but conserve more polyphony. Also, when writing
Combis, we programmers get pretty obsessed looking for some little bit of
"sparkle" or whatever to add to a timbre. Sometimes you can find a 2 osc
program that, by disabling 1 osc, reveals a specific sound character that
wasn’t really audible before in with both oscillators on.
