Performance recalls FX CD
This parameter selects the effects mode for the Performance.
Off When selecting a Performance, no effect is
selected.
On The Performance selects the C/D effect pair.
Note: When both this parameter and the “Seq.2 FX
Mode” parameter are set to select the C/D effect
pair, Sequencer 2 shares its effects with Keyboard
tracks. Therefore, these effects can be changed either
selecting a Song for Sequencer 2, or selecting a Per-
formance.
Lyrics/Score Balance Link
This parameter allows you to use the SEQUENCER BALANCE
slider to select the Sequencer whose lyrics, chords, markers or
score will be shown in the built-in display or external monitor.
When the “Text Only” option is selected as the external display
view mode, the slider allows you to choose whose lyrics and
chords will be shown on the external monitor (see “External
Display” on page 230 for more information).
Note: The external monitor can be connected only when the
optional VIF4 video interface card is installed.
Off When moving the SEQUENCER BALANCE
cross-fader, only the volume balance between
Songs will be selected. The shown lyrics or mark-
ers will remain unchanged.
On When moving the SEQUENCER BALANCE
slider fully to the left or the right, the correspond-
ing Song will fade-in, and its lyrics, chords, mark-
ers and score will be selected and shown in the
display or external monitor.
Link Mode
The two onboard Sequencers can work each one with a different
Tempo (Off), or use both the same Tempo (various Link
modes).
You can turn the Link Mode on by pressing the TEMPO LOCK
button and turning its LED on (by default, Beat mode is selected
the first time). This also turns the Tempo Lock function on.
Hint: You can always start both sequencers simultaneously, by
keeping the SHIFT button held down while pressing one of the
(PLAY/STOP) controls.
Off The sequencers Tempo are not linked. Each
sequencer uses its own Tempo.
Measure The two sequencers Tempo are linked together.
The Tempo data written into the Songs are
ignored. Adjust the Tempo using the TEMPO/
VALUE controls.
Start one of the sequencers, by pressing its own
(PLAY/STOP) control. Then, start the
other sequencer, by pressing the other
(PLAY/STOP) control; the second sequencer
starts at the next measure.
Beat The two sequencer’s Tempo are linked together.
The Tempo data written into the Songs are
ignored. Adjust the Tempo using the TEMPO/
VALUE controls.
Start one of the sequencers, by pressing its own
(PLAY/STOP) control. Then, start the
other sequencer, by pressing the other
(PLAY/STOP) control; the second sequencer
starts at the next beat (quarter or octave, depend-
ing on the Song’s Time Signature).
Seq.2 FX Mode
This parameter selects the effects mode for Sequencer 2. When a
4-effects Song is loaded, all four effects are used, independently
from this setting.
AB The A and B effect pair is used. Sequencer 2
shares its effects with Sequencer 1.
CD The C and D effect pair is used.
Note: When this parameter is set to CD, Sequencer
2 shares its effects with Keyboard tracks, so these
effects can be changed either selecting a Song for
Sequencer 2, or selecting a Performance (unless the
“Performance recalls FX CD” parameter is left
unchecked – see above).
Fast Play
When checked, this function allows to skip the empty setup
beats at the beginning of a song, and immediately start from the
first note. However, any setup data are read and considered.
Note: When Pa800 is driving an external musical instrument, the
fast transfer of MIDI data to the MIDI OUT or USB port may
cause a delay to the Song’s start. Therefore, we suggest to turn this
function off when Pa800 is hooked to other instruments.
Get Hard Disk Path
Available only when a hard disk is installed.
Touch this button to see the current path of each sequencer. This
lets you know where currently selected Songs are located in the
disk.
If you save these paths to the Global, by selecting the “Write Glo-
bal-Song Play Setup” command from the page menu, the first
time you will open the Song Select window, after turning the
instrument on, the selected path will be selected by default.
