To get an idea of how these curves affect controller response, refer to the Velocity Curve charts,
which begin on page 7-12.
Entry (Ent) and Exit Values
Entry value allows you to specify an initial value for a controller in a setup that will be sent
whenever you select that setup. For example, if you want to make sure that all of the modulation
in a zone is turned off when you select a setup, assign a physical controller to a destination of
MIDI 01 (MWheel) and set Entry Value to 0.
Entry values ignore the current position of the physical controller when the setup is selected. In
fact, if the physical controller is above or below the entry value when the setup is selected
(which it often is), moving the controller will have no effect until it is past its entry value. In the
modulation example above, moving the assigned controller won’t turn on any modulation until
it’s pushed all the way down, and then up again.
An entry value of None is quite different from a value of 0. None means that there will be no
initial controller command when the setup is selected, and any subsequent movement of the
physical controller will be effective.
Exit Value tells the K2661 to send a value for that controller whenever you leave the setup, either
by selecting another setup or by selecting a different mode altogether. It can be very useful when
a controller is doing something to the sound, and you don’t want that effect to continue after
you leave the setup. For example, if you want to make sure a zone’s pitch returns to normal
whenever you leave a setup, you would set Exit Value to 64 for any controller whose Destination
parameter is set to BendUp. Again, None means no command is sent.
The SLIDER and SLID/2 Pages
You can assign each of the K2661’s eight programmable sliders to a destination on each of the
eight zones. Or, you can assign any combination of sliders to the same zone, allowing you
tremendous flexibility. For example, you can assign Sliders A and B to modulate pitch and
volume on Zone 1, then assign Slider C to control panning on Zones 2, 3, and 4.
The SLIDER button gives you access to Sliders A–D. Press the SLID/2 button to program
Sliders E–H.
