Korg 2E ii User Manual

You can specify the function of the [SW1] and [SW2] 
keys (

The functions of the [SW1] and [SW2] keys are set 
independently for each program, combination, and 
song. In and Sampling mode, the functions of these 
keys are set for the entire mode.
You can specify the function that will be performed by 
the [SW1] and [SW2] keys, and can also select between 
Toggle

 (when the function will be switched on/off 

each time the [SW1] or [SW2] key is pressed) and 
Momentary

 (when the function will be on only while 

you continue holding the [SW1] or [SW2] key).

These settings are made by “SW1/2 Assign” in the fol-
lowing pages.

*: If the EXB-SMPL option is installed

When you write a program or combination, the 
on/off status of the [SW1] and [SW2] keys is mem-
orized.

You can use these keys as alternate modulation or 
effect dynamic modulation sources, and control 
program parameters or effect parameters.
In this case, you will normally select SW1 
Mod.(CC#80)

 and SW2 Mod.(CC#81).

For an example in which the [SW1] key is specified as 
an effect dynamic modulation source for a program 
and used to control an effect, refer to p.116.

If you wish to keep this setting after the power is 

turned off, you must Write the Global settings to 
memory. (

The settings of Sampling mode cannot be saved.

You can specify the B-mode functions of REALTIME 
CONTROLS knobs [1]–[4]. (

The B-mode functions are set independently for each

pling mode (if the separately sold EXB-SMPL option is 
installed) are set for the entire mode.

These settings are made by “Knob B Assign” in the fol-
lowing pages.

*: If the EXB-SMPL option is installed

You can use these knobs as sources for alternate 
modulation or effect dynamic modulation, and

, Knob Mod.2(CC#19), Knob
