Using the sound of an external device
to play melodically (input effect)
By setting Mix-In to “PADS,” you can use the keyboard pads to
play melodies using the sound of an external device, so that the
pads will control the pitch and duration just as a conventional
keyboard.
Pad 2 (C4) will play the input sound at its original pitch.
Relative to the original pitch, you’ll be able to play a range from
14 semitones higher (pad [16]) to 25 semitones lower (pad [1]
after pressing [OCT-] twice).
* You can’t play chords.
