Getting Started
1 VOLUME knob
This knob controls the CS2x’s overall audio volume level output from the
PHONES and OUTPUT jacks. Turn it between left-most (minimum) and
right-most (maximum) positions to set the proper listening level whether
using headphones or amplified speakers.
2 SOUND CONTROL knobs
The eight SOUND CONTROL knobs are used for real-time control and
edit of various tone generator parameters. Turning a knob to the left or
right will offset its specified parameter values accordingly (left for
negative values, right for positive values). Each knob has a detented
center stop position which represents the original value of the parameter.
(page 19.)
3 [SCENE] buttons
Each of the CS2x’s 512 Performances has two “Scene” memories in which
are stored the specific positions of the eight SOUND CONTROL knobs,
giving you the capability of slight or even radical sound reshaping at the
press of a [SCENE] button. Simultaneously pressing both [SCENE] buttons
activates the SCENE CONTROL function, which lets you use the
MODULATION wheel or a connected Foot Controller to “sound morph”
between the two Scenes. (page 25.)
4 [ARPEGGIO] button
Pressing this button turns the Arpeggiator on and off. When the
Arpeggiator is on, you can create automatic arpeggiated chords as you
play. You can designate arpeggio type, tempo and timing subdivision
using the panel edit functions. An ARPEGGIATOR SPLIT function lets you
split the keyboard at C3 so the chords you play to the left of the split point
will create arpeggiated chords and everything from the split point and
above will play as normal. An ARPEGGIATOR HOLD function will cause
arpeggiated chords to continue playing even after you release the keys.
(page 27.)
5 [SHIFT] button
This button has three functions. (1) Holding [SHIFT] and pressing
OCTAVE [-]/[+] transposes the octave of a Performance or voice up or
down (page 25). (2) Holding [SHIFT] and pressing [ARPEGGIO] turns the
ARPEGGIATOR HOLD function on and off (page 27). (3) Holding [SHIFT]
and pressing ARPEGGIATOR TYPE [UP/DOWN] (in Performance Edit
mode when the Arpeggiator Type screen is displayed) turns the
ARPEGGIATOR SPLIT function on and off (page 27).
6 PART/LAYER/OCTAVE [-]/[+]
buttons
These two buttons have three functions. (1) In Performance mode you can
use them to select one of the four Layer voices (page 29). (2) In Multi Play
mode you can use them to select one of the 16 Parts (page 32). (3) When
used in conjunction with the [SHIFT] button you can use them to
transpose the octave of the Performance or voice up or down (page 25).
7 [PRESET] and [USER]
Performance buttons
Pressing one of these buttons lets you access a Preset or User
Performance bank in Performance Play mode. Each time you press
[PRESET] or [USER] toggles between P1 and P2 or U1 and U2 banks,
respectively. Each bank contains 128 Performances, making a total of 512
available. (page 23.)
8 PROGRAM [-]/[+] buttons
Each time you press one of these buttons lets you step up ([+]) or down
([-]) through each consecutive Performance (in Performance mode) or
voice (in Multi Play mode). Holding either switch lets you continuously
“scroll” through the list of programs.
9 LCD
The backlit LCD screen displays various types of information to indicate
the current operating status of the CS2x, depending on which mode or
particular function is selected.
