SONG MULTIS
The Song Multi function lets you assign an Instrument voice to each of the 16 TRACK
buttons on the panel, plus designate all sound mixer and other settings for each track as
well as for the overall mix including volume, panning and digital effects settings, as well
as tuning, note shift and pitch bend parameters.
A song multi is the complete configuration of all MIDI, voice, mixer and other
assignments and settings which determine the operating status of the W5/W7.
Depending on your particular needs for a setup, i.e., whether you are composing,
practicing, recording, or performing live or are using the W5/W7 as a master keyboard
controller or as a slave tone generator a song multi may be comprised of the following:
multi settings (i.e., all parameter settings), song
sequence data, and accompanying Song voice bank;
multi settings with accompanying Song voice bank;
multi settings only.
A song multi can be stored in any of the 16 song memories in the W5/W7 and saved to
floppy disk and loaded back in via the disk drive. And since each song memory also
contains a Song voice bank into which you can store up to 128 normal voices and 2 drum
voices copied from the Internal, Preset or GM voice bank (or the External voice bank if
the optional Expansion Wave/Voice Board is installed), you can organize an entire bank of
Song voices specifically for a single multi. This lets you keep all data for a multi in one
place, i.e., inside a single song memory.
Song multis are an integral part of the W5/W7 s flexibility and user friendliness.
Basically, you define the multis naturally as you work, whether you re composing, or
recording, or preparing setups for live performance by selecting a track and assigning an
Instrument voice to it, setting a pan position here, an effect send level there, and so on.
Every multi will take on the unique character of the work session. Then you save your
multis to floppy disk, so that whenever you need any particular multi, you can load it back
into one of the 16 song memories and be assured that all settings and other data are always
exactly as they should be and instantly accessible.
There are literally hundreds of parameters which make up a song multi, but only four
basic steps involved in the process of creating and defining the multi: (1) select a song
memory location; (2) assign Instrument voices to tracks and determine multi parameter
settings as you work, whether you re recording or structuring a performance setup; (3)
store the multi in song memory as you work; and (4) save the multi to floppy disk. (For
more information about song multis, see Song Mode, page 74.)
NOTE: Song multis can be saved to
floppy disk and loaded back into the
W5/W7 in various ways, including
all 16 songs with accompanying
Song voice banks, one song only,
one song with accompanying Song
voice bank, and in the Standard
MIDI File format. For more
information on saving to and
loading from disk, see Disk Mode,
page 131.
