Multi Play
Mode
In Multi Play mode you can select a voice from the GM bank of 128
AWM2 voices (accessible via the PROGRAM [–]/[+] buttons) and start
playing in realtime.
Multi Play mode lets you use the CS1x as a master keyboard controller or
MIDI note data input device, as well as a multitimbral tone generator.
A
Multi
is a configuration of up to 16 instrument "Parts" (each Part is
assigned to a MIDI channel) which can be played simultaneously when
an external sequencer or computer is connected to the CS1x.
Choose the Part with the PART/LAYER [–]/[+] buttons, and assign a voice
to it by selecting from the 480 GM- and XG-compatible AWM2 normal
(instrument) voices and 11 drum voices (kits), using the Edit menu Bank
and Program Parameter Value UP/DOWN button.
In Multi Play mode there is one menu of Edit parameters which can be
accessed via the Parameter Value UP/DOWN button.
Turning the Sound Control Knobs will affect only a single AWM2 voice,
i.e., the currently selected Part.

PART SELECT
PART SELECT - In Multi Play mode each "Part" is made up of an AWM2
voice. You can select and play any of the 16 Parts by pressing the PART/
LAYER [–]/[+] buttons. Since the notes you play on the keyboard and the
buttons you press on the panel are sending MIDI messages, the CS1x is
ideal as a MIDI input device.
EDITING PARTS - Select the Part you want to edit using the PART/LAYER
[–]/[+] buttons. Each of the Multi parameters are printed above the
Parameter Value UP/DOWN button. To set up your own 16 Parts, assign
a voice to the Part using the Bank and Program parameters accessible by
the first two Parameter Value UP/DOWN buttons. (Note that these settings
will not be retained when the power is turned off, since the XG default
parameters are always reinstated when the power is turned on. If you
insert voice Program Change messages at the head of your sequences,
however, the right Part voices will always be selected automatically when
you start your sequencer from the beginning of the song.)
MULTITIMBRAL PLAY - As a GM- and XG-compatible multitimbral
MIDI tone generator, the CS1x can receive note and other data on each
of the 16 MIDI channels, sent from an external sequencer or computer,
thus playing the corresponding 16 Parts.
XG Operation
The CS1x is a fully equipped, stand-alone XG-MIDI tone generator,
featuring a total of 480 normal voices and 11 drum voices.
The XG format maintains the universality and compatibility of the MIDI
and General MIDI System Level 1 standards, while significantly increasing
the range of expressiveness through much greater control over voice
modifications and effects.
In addition to supporting the 128 GM voices, the XG format provides for
Bank Select messages that significantly expand the number of voices
available for use.
Many of the new XG voices are variations of basic GM voices which are
stored in additional banks. Each bank is associated with a specific type of
variation, so that voices are easy to locate. When using an external
sequencer to control the CS1x, additional banks are selected by the
appropriate Bank-Select LSB values.
The XG format also supports a full SFX bank of extension effects, which
are selected by a Bank-Select MSB value of 40H. Bank-Select MSB 7H,
in contrast, can be used to set any channel to rhythm-part play.
The XG format allows creation of extremely expressive control data which
can change a voice's Harmonic Contents, Brightness, and many more
critical Control Change and other parameters.
The XG format also offers high level effects support, enabling control of
effects types, circuit operation, plus internal parameter settings for both
basic and elaborate effects. This means you can freely control the
parameters of the CS1x's 11 Reverb, 11 Chorus and 43 Variation types of
effects independently.
(For more information about MIDI related parameters, see the
Appendix
,
page 53.)
The CS1x also features another play mode —TG300B mode— which
lets you play back commercially available MIDI files in this format.
