Chapter 6: Creating and Editing Programs
Assigning Sounds to Notes
This assigns sounds to note numbers.
Select the Note: field in the middle left with the CURSOR key and
select the note number you want to assign by rotating the DATA
wheel.
Select the Snd: field by pressing CURSOR RIGHT key and select
the sound you want to assign by rotating the DATA wheel.
When the value in Pad: field in Note: field is changed, the note
number assigned to that pad will automatically appear.
Even when the cursor is in the Snd: field, it is possible to change the
Pad: field by playing the pad.  When the Pad: field is changed, the
Note: field will also automatically be changed.  In this way, it is
possible to continuously set the sound assignments without moving
the cursor.
The Program Sound Generation Mode
However, by setting the sound generation mode, it is possible to gen-
erate up to three sounds simultaneously or switch the sound between
velocity and decay.
Select the Mode: field with the CURSOR key and select from the
following four modes with the DATA wheel.
NORMAL
Only the sound in the Snd: field plays when the selected
MIDI note number is received.
