Chapter 8. Global Mode
Global Mode allows you to adjust performance settings common to all modes of operation. To enter Global Mode, 
press the GLOBAL Mode button. 
Global mode contains settings for: tuning, power-saving options, touch screen settings, demo song playback, 
accessing the user manuals and for restoring factory settings.
Global mode is divided into 6 pages which are listed down the left side of the screen: Global 1, Global 2, Global 
Control, LED Color, Demo Song and Info.
Adjust all parameter dials by touch, alpha wheel (once selected), Increase+/Decrease- buttons, or tap the value field 
to open a numeric keypad for more precise data entry.
8-1 Global 1
Global 1 parameters allow you to adjust the Master 
Tune, Auto Power Off, Tempo Mode, Velocity Map, 
MIDI Transmit Data Mode (MIDI TX Mode), MIDI 
Receive Data Mode (MIDI RX Mode) and Override 
settings.
8-1-1 Master Tune
Master Tune adjusts the overall pitch of the SP7 Grand (+/- 100 cents).
8-1-2 Auto Power Off
Auto Power Off is a power saving feature. Set the time interval from the last system activity after which the unit 
will power itself down (15 min up to 8 hours). The “Off” setting disables the auto power-off feature.
8-1-3 Tempo Mode
Tempo Mode designates whether the current individual Sound or Global Tempo will be the active tempo. When 
set to “Preset”, the tempo applied is as specified by the “Preset BPM” tempo parameter for each Sound (Zone 
Edit/Common page).  When set to “Global” the tempo applied is as specified by the “Tempo” parameter in the 
upper right-hand corner drop MENU.
8-1-4 Velocity Map (refer to Appendix 2)
The Velocity Map parameter determines the way the SP7 Grand generates MIDI velocity information. Different 
maps generate different MIDI velocity value curves for the same physical key strike. Choose the setting which 
best suits your playing style. Choose from Light 1/2/3, Normal 1/2,/3, Hard 1/2/3 and Fixed. Normal 3 is the 
default.
