Creating Triples
There are several ways to add a triple to a program. The most convenient method depends on
what you want to do.
In case you’re wondering, there’s no way to convert a normal layer to a triple. Whenever you
want to create a program containing a triple, or add a triple to a program, use one of the
following methods.
Creating a New Triple
Creating a new triple inserts a copy of Layers 1–3 of Program 739 into the current program. This
enables you to use Program 739 as a template for triples.
1. While in Program mode, select the program in which you want to create a triple.
2. Press Edit to enter the Program Editor.
3. Press <more , then press NewLyr . This displays a prompt asking you whether to create a
normal layer or a triple.
4. Press Triple . The K2600 creates the triple, adding three linked layers after the highest-
numbered existing layer (for example, if the program contained three layers, the new
triple would occupy Layers 4–6). Adding the triple takes a few seconds; the display shows
you the K2600’s progress).
5. Rename and/or save the program as desired.
If you want to use one of your own triples as the template, edit the triple in Program 739 , then
save the program with ID 739 (this creates a RAM version of the program, temporarily
overwriting the ROM version—you can restore the ROM version by deleting Program 739 ,
which erases the RAM version).
Copying a Program Containing a Triple
This method works well when you want to make a few relatively simple adjustments to an
existing program (without changing the original): changing keymaps, using a different
KDFX studio, tweaking an amplitude envelope, or adjusting one or more DSP blocks in the
triple itself.
1. While in Program mode, select the program you want to copy.
2. Press Edit to enter the Program Editor.
3. Press <more until you see the Name soft button.
4. Press Name , rename the program, and press OK .
5. Press Save , and save the program to a new ID (if you’re editing a RAM program, change
the ID to avoid replacing an existing program). See page 5-3 of your Musician’s Guide if
you need help naming or saving.
6. Edit the new program as desired.
As an alternative, you can use the Copy function in Master mode, as described on page 11-16 of
your Musician’s Guide .
