Guitar/Wind Controller Mode
If you’re using a guitar controller or wind controller with your K2000, you may not always get
the sound you expect. Since these controllers sometimes send MIDI Note On commands before
sending Breath or Volume data, you might not hear all of the attack transients that characterize
each instrument.
To compensate for this, the K2000 features a special mode that may improve the response to
your controller. To enter Guitar/Wind Controller mode, press both CHAN/BANK buttons
while in Master mode, then confirm with the Yes soft button.
Guitar/Wind Controller mode slightly delays MIDI Note On and Note Off commands, so that
response to pitch bend and other expressive components of a note will be more accurate. If you
hear a “glitch” in the attack of notes from your guitar or wind controller, you should try setting
your K2000 to this mode. Keep in mind, however, that since this mode slightly changes the order
in which MIDI commands are sent, it may affect the performance of the K2000 under some
circumstances.
The K2000 always resets Guitar/Wind Controller Mode to Off at power up.
