What the Modes Are

 

In this chapter weÕll discuss the theory behind the mode concept, and weÕll describe the basic 
operating features of each mode.

 

The modes exist to make the K2600 logical to work with. With as many performance and 
programming features as the K2600 has, itÕs helpful to break them into groups. These groups are 
called modes. There are eight primary modes (plus Sample mode and Live mode); theyÕre 
described brießy in the section called 

 

 on page 4-3. Chapters 6 through 13 are 

dedicated to explaining each primary mode in turn. Chapter 14 describes Sample mode and 
Live mode.

Each mode is named for the kind of operations you perform while in that mode, and each 
modeÕs editor (if any) contains all of the parameters related to editing the type of 

 

 found in 

that mode. In Setup mode, for example, you select setups (and only setups) for performance or 
editing. All of the setup-editing parameters are grouped together on the Setup-Editor page, 
which is accessible through Setup mode.

 

When the K2600 is on, itÕs almost always operating in one of the eight primary modes 
represented by the LED-highlighted buttons beneath the displayÑor in one of the editors 
corresponding to the current operating mode. There are two exceptions: Sample mode (and the 
Sample Editor), and Live mode. Pressing one of the mode buttons selects the corresponding 
mode. This is the modeÕs entry level. At the entry level, the LED of the selected mode is lit. Only 
one mode can be selected at a time.

From any primary mode, you can get to any other primary mode simply by pressing one of the 
mode buttons. If youÕre in an editor, however, you must press 

 

 to return to the modeÕs entry 

level before selecting another mode.

All of the modes except Disk mode and Live mode give you access to one or more editors for 
changing the values of the parameters within that mode. Press the 

 

 button to enter the editor 

of the currently selected mode. When you do this, the mode LED goes out.

ItÕs possible to enter another modeÕs editor without leaving the currently selected mode. For 
example, if you press 

 

 while in Setup mode, youÕll enter the Setup Editor. The Setup-Editor 

page will appear, and the LocalPrg parameter will be highlighted by the cursor. If you press 

 

 

again, youÕll enter the Program Editor, where you can edit the currently selected program. While 
you can edit and save programs as you normally would, youÕre still in Setup mode, and you 
canÕt select another mode at this point. When you exit the Program Editor, youÕll return to the 
Setup-Editor page. Press 

 

 again, and youÕll leave the Setup Editor, returning to the 

Setup-mode page.

This method of entering editors works for any parameter whose value is an editable object 
(program, setup, keymap, FX preset, etc.)
