You
may
want
to
refer
to
the
following
checklist
when
setting
up
the
MATRIX-12
as
an
independent
synthesizer:
VASSIGN
Make
sure
that
you
have
assigned
each
of
the
MATRIX-12fs
Voices
to
one
of
the
ZONES.
Remember
that
assigning
a
Voice
to
a
MIDI
Channel
removes
that
Voice
from
the
Keyboard's
control.
To
put
the
MATRIX-12
into
its
most
basic
configuration,
set
all
12
Voices
to
ZONE
1.

TheMATRIX-12as
the
MIDI
MASTER
The
MATRIX-12
MIDI
Master
capabilities
far
exceed
those
of
other synthesizers
due
to
its
use
of
ZONEs.
Because
each
ZONE
has
its
own
MIDI
Channel,
the
presence
of
six
ZONEs
permits
the
Mastering
of
six
Slave
instruments
on
six
different,
independent
MIDI
Channels.
And
since
each
ZONE
is
able
to
transmit
Notes
and
Controllers
independently,
the
MATRIX-12's
MIDI
performance
capabilities
make
it
the
ideal
Master
Keyboard
controller
in
any
MIDI
system.
The
discussions
that
follow
are
designed
to
be
used
as
a
guide
in
setting
up
a
MIDI
system
with
the
MATRIX-12
as
the
Master
Controller.
Since
the
combinations
are
almost
limitless,
we
will
cover
the basics
and
leave
the
rest
up
to
your
specific
system
needs.
