Playing the Keyboard in the Voice mode
Using the Category Search
function
The Voices are conveniently divided into specific Categories,
irrespective of their bank locations. The categories are
divided based on the general instrument type or sound
characteristics. The Category Search function gives you
quick access to the sounds you want.
1 Press the [CATEGORY SEARCH] button in the
Voice Play display.
The Category Search dialog appears.
2 Move the cursor position to “Main” (Main
Category) with the Cursor [<] button, and use the
data dial to select the Main Category.
3 Move the cursor position to “Sub” (Sub Category)
with the Cursor [>] button, and use the data dial to
select the Sub Category.
4 Move the cursor position to “Voice List” with the
Cursor [>] button, and use the data dial to select
the Voice.
If you want to change the Category or Sub Category, press
the Cursor [<] button to go back to step 2 or 3.
5 Press the [ENTER] button to actually call up the
selected Voice.
This closes the Category Search dialog.
Below is a list of the Categories and their panel abbreviations.
Using the Arpeggio function
This function lets you trigger rhythm patterns, riffs and
phrases using the current Voice by simply playing notes on
the keyboard. Since the preset Voices already have their
own Arpeggio types pre-assigned, all you need to do is
select the desired Voice and turn on the Arpeggio function.
For certain Voices, simply selecting the Voice will turn
Arpeggio on.
Try selecting different Voices and check out the various
Arpeggio types.
For example, select the Voice numbered “A01” of the Preset
Drum Bank, turn the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button on, then
hold down a key (any key) on the keyboard, and listen as a
rhythm is played automatically. The rhythm stops when you
release the key.
Other preset Voices also have their own appropriate
Arpeggio types for automatic playing of arpeggio/rhythm
patterns. Up to five Arpeggio types can be assigned to the
[SF1] – [SF5] buttons for each Voice.
When a certain Voice is selected, the same sequence is
played back both regardless of the pressed note or notes.
When a certain Voice is selected, on the other hand, the
different sequence is played back depending on which
notes are played or how they are played. Check out how
Arpeggios are played back for different Voices by selecting
various Voices and playing notes in various ways.
