e Save button is located on the left side of the LCD screen.
In Program Mode, pressing the Save button saves the current position of the sliders, switches
and wheels as a User Program. (See Saving User Programs on page 6-11)
In Multi Mode, pressing the Save button saves a copy of the current Multi. e copy is saved
with the states of the Multi Zone Mute buttons but does not include the current state of
the physical controllers (i.e. moved Sliders, Mod Wheel etc.). Other controller states can be
edited in Multi Edit Mode. (See Saving User Multis on page 8-16 .)

Multi to indicate that the Program or Multi has changed.
Function Buttons
Sound
e Sound button controls the destination of MIDI notes produced by playing the Artis SE
keyboard. Pressing the Sound Button will step through the options. e LOCAL and MIDI
LEDs will indicate the status, where a lit LED indicates that MIDI messages are being sent
to that destination. e available options are LOCAL, MIDI, or LOCAL and MIDI.
When LOCAL and MIDI are selected, MIDI notes will be sent to the local Artis SE sound
engine, as well as the MIDI Out and USB Computer ports. When only LOCAL is selected,
MIDI notes will only be sent to the local Artis SE sound engine. When only MIDI is
selected, MIDI notes will only be sent to the MIDI Out and USB Computer ports.
Split
Pressing the Split Button while in either Program or Multi Mode performs the Split
Function, creating a new Zone using the lower range of keys. is allows you to split
Programs and Multis such that keys in one region of the keyboard produce dierent sounds
than another region.
Hitting Split in Program Mode automatically puts the Artis SE into Multi Mode. From
there, the split program can be saved as a User Multi.
In Multi Mode, if all four zones are already employed, a Split cannot be performed, and the
display will read “No more zones.”
