Global Menu in Synth Mode
There are two Global Menus in Synth Mode, accessed by alternate presses of the GLOBAL button. The first
is the standard Global Menu, accessed from Synth or MIDI Controlling Mode, and the second is the Synth
Global Menu, just accessed whilst in Synth Mode. Within the Synth Global Menu, the general Synth settings,
such as MIDI channel, port routing and transposition, can all be modified.
To access the Synth Global Menu, press the GLOBAL button twice, ensuring that one of the options below
is displayed. Then, once in the Synth Global Menu, use the page up/down buttons next to the LCD screen
to cycle through the following pages, using the data encoder to change the settings for each page:
Synth Midi Chan – sets the MIDI channel that the synth responds to. This defaults to 16
Synth Out Ports – sets the port routing for synth MIDI data to the USB, MIDI Out, both or neither
Def SampleRate – sets the sample rate of synthesizer audio transmitted over USB to 44.1 or 48kHz
(dependant on your session)
Synth Tune Cents – allows fine tuning of the synthesizer. At +63, the pitch will be a semitone above the
played note. At -64, the pitch will be a semitone below. At 0, the pitch will be unaffected
Synth Transpose – transposes the synthesizer pitch in whole semitones. Positive values increases, negative
values decreases
Synth Glob Sync – allows the synthesizer (effects etc.) to be synchronised to the first note pressed after
notes are released, a program change message or a song start message. This means that effects can
have their start time linked to the start of a song for stunning effects
Synth Vel Curve – sets the Velocity Curve of the synthesizer to a curve from 1-7 (see the Template Common
section for Velociy Curve Graphs) or to a constant value between 8 and 127
Synth Vel Resp – sets the response of the Velocity to SOFT (where softer playing will create low and high
velocities) or HARD (where harder playing will be required to create the same dynamic range)
Syn Local Cntrl – determines whether the Xio keys and controls affect the onboard synthesizer. Useful if
wanting to use the synth to send MIDI data but not be played whilst doing so. However
, the Xio’
s hybrid
modes mean that it’s probably better to remain in MIDI controlling mode if wanting to utilise the full potential
of the keyboard
Midi Clock Sync – sets the MIDI clock to AUTO (automatic synchronisation to MIDI clock received over USB),
INT (Internal MIDI clock) or EXT (External MIDI clock)
Synth Mode (Input) Mute - allows either or both of the Inputs to be muted when in Synth Mode
