F6 Key Shift: This changes the transposition of the track selected by up to +/- 24 semitones. The value can be changed using the
DDAATTAA CCUURRSSOORR
push buttons which, if pressed together at the same time, reset the value.
F7 Channel Tx Rx:
When the push button
FF77
is pressed repeatedly it switches from TX (which indicates the transmission MIDI channel) to
RX (which establishes the MIDI receiving channel). The value can be changed using the
DDAATTAA CCUURRSSOORR
push buttons. If
no value is specified the track receives and transmits on the MIDI channel having the same number as the Part.
F8 Part Mode: This modifies the operational mode of the track, using the
DDAATTAA CCUURRSSOORR
push buttons. The possible choices are:
Voice: track dedicated to the use of a voice
Drumset: track dedicated to the use of a Drum Set
Drum2: track dedicated to the use of Live Drums
Vocalize: track dedicated to the control of the Vocalizer
Based on the choice made Drum Set, Live Drum, Voice and Vocal Set can be called up or otherwise; whereas in the
case of Voice and Drum Set mode the Voice and Drum Set are called up normally. For Drum 2 and Vocal Set the Live
Drums and Vocal Sets must be selected using the
DDAATTAA CCUURRSSOORR
push buttons.
NNoottee::
The modification of the operational mode of a track can make the song incompatible with modules using the
General MIDI format, but it offers the best possible conditions for creating Midi files on the SD5.
F9 Mute: If this function is enabled , the selected track will not be heard during playback.
F10 16 Parts: This enables the display of each single parameter, showing its value for all sixteen Parts.
MODIFYING A PARAMETER FOR THE SIXTEEN PARTS
As already mentioned the status of a single parameter for all sixteen tracks can be
displayed using the
FF1100 1166 PPaarrttss
function just described above.
To rapidly access a parameter, select it from the GM Part page and then press
FF1100 1166
PPaarrttss
to display the status of that parameter for the sixteen tracks. The page
FF1100 1166
PPaarrttss
structure shows a table with four rows and four columns relative to the sixteen
Parts. To access the single Part use push buttons
FF11
and
FF66
for Parts 1, 2, 3 and 4 that
can be selected by pressing the same push buttons repeatedly. Use push buttons
FF22
and
FF77
for Parts 5, 6, 7, and 8. Use push buttons
FF33
and
FF88
for Parts 9, 10, 11 and 12 and
push buttons
FF44
and
FF99
for Parts 13, 14, 15 and 16.
Once the Part has been found, it's value can be modified using the
DDAATTAA CCUURRSSOORR
push buttons which, if pressed together at the same time, will reset the value.
The parameters that can be modified in this way are distributed over seven pages
that are called up using push buttons
PPAAGGEE ++//--
, and include Volume, Reverb, Effects,
Pan, Shift, Channel Rx, Channel Tx, )already explained in the previous section).
The
FF55 MMuuttee ((SSoolloo))
function is used to establish which track will be impacted by the
FF1100 MMuuttee
action. When
FF55
is set on
MMuuttee ((SSoolloo))
, F10 is used to
mute only the track selected at the time from playback. Press F5 again and the relative function is changed into
SSoolloo ((MMuuttee))
and
FF1100 MMuuttee
mutes
out all the tracks with the exception of that selected. Press
EEXXIITT
or
FF55 EEssccaappee
to return to the main page of Song . To save the modifications to the
song (so that when next this song is called up, it will be played back using these new parameter settings
SSAAVVEE
should be used.
