PLAYING AND RECORDING OF MUSICAL SEQUENCES
(SEQUENCER)
The Physis Plus organs are equipped with an internal sequencer (digital
recorder) capable of recording performances on the instrument, and the
commands and controls used and MIDI data received through the MIDI [IN] port.
Recordings can then be saved on the USB stick or in the internal memory as
MIDI files and played back at any time.
To recall the sequencer press the [SONG] button beside the display. The screen
for selection of the system’s four operating modes is displayed.

Once the USB pen is inserted please wait some seconds before recalling the sequencer. In case of
failed recognition, press [EXIT] to leave the sequencer, then re-enter
- If using a USB pen, remember to format it with FAT or FAT32 (no NTFS) file system.

Transposition set in the TUNING menu does not have any effect on playback of songs (unlike
recording, where the notes are acquired transposed). To do this you have to set the transposer
described at page 18.
