Using A Split Program Setup
One of the simplest uses of Setup mode is to create a split setup, in which different ranges of the
keyboard are assigned to play different instrument programs. The X-Pro can split the keyboard
into a maximum of 16 different instrument programs, though often a split of two programs is
most useful. Follow these steps to learn about using split program setups:
Part 1: Load The Example Setup
1. Press the Exit button until you reach the ProgramMode page. Next, press the Setup mode button,
located with the mode buttons to the left of the display. This will bring you to the Setup mode
MAIN page.
2. Use the plus/minus buttons or alpha wheel to select the setup 38 Jazz Bass/Piano or use the
alphanumeric pad to enter 38 and press Enter (see below.)
This setup contains a piano program on the upper octaves of the keyboard, and an upright bass
program on the lower octaves of the keyboard.
Note: The pre-set “split” setups included with the X-Pro all include the word “Split” or a slash (/) in
their names, such as 39 Fretless Bass Split, and 40 Zep KB3/Pianet.
This setup, 38 Jazz Bass/Piano has 2 zones, as we can see in the info box on the left of the Setup
mode main page (see above.) Each zone in a setup contains an instrument program. The
programs in this setup are AC Buzzer Bass and Grand "Evans". In the info box on the left of the
Setup mode main page we can see an overview of the keyrange of each zone. For example, the
line under the left of AC Buzzer Bass indicates that this zone covers the lower half of the
keyboard. The line under the right of Grand "Evans" indicates that this zone covers the upper
half of the keyboard.
Part 2: Changing The Split Point (Setting Zone Key Range)
You can use the Setup Editor to change the “split” point on the keyboard, the point where one
zone stops and the other begins. Do this by adjusting the key range for each zone. For example,
let’s change the split point of the setup 38 Jazz Bass/Piano to happen an octave lower. We will
have an octave less of high bass notes and an octave more of low piano notes:
