Setup Mode
Use Setup mode to select, play, edit, and save setups. To enter Setup mode press the Setup mode
button, located with the mode buttons to the left of the display. This brings you to the Setup mode MAIN
page:
A setup is made up of 1 to 16 zones, each of which uses a program (instrument sound) from
Program mode. With a setup you can play up to 16 different instrument sounds at once, either as
separate instruments from different key ranges (known as split setups,) as layers of instruments
from the same keys (known as layered setups,) or using a mix of both methods. The following
examples will explain how to use and edit each type of setup. These examples include
instructions to choose specific programs and choose specific key ranges. You can follow the
same guides to make your own custom setups by choosing any combination of programs and
key ranges.
The preset setups included with the X-Pro include split and layered setups, as well as some
setups that use more advanced features like riffs or programmable switches and sliders. To
learn more about these features see the PC3 Musician’s Guide, Setup Mode chapter.
A Note About Programs: Each zone in a setup contains a program from the X-Pro’s Program
mode. The X-Pro comes with over 800 programs, and you can also edit these programs or create
your own. When choosing a program for a setup, many users will be satisfied using one of the
included programs as is. Some users may also wish to alter the properties of a program beyond
the options given in Setup mode. In these cases, it is necessary to edit the program from
Program mode. See the PC3 Musician’s Guide, Program Mode chapter, Editing VAST programs
for more details.
