PRESET PROGRAMMING

When your ZETA SYNTHONY II is in preset mode, you can press the EDIT button to program/edit a preset. Press the EXIT button until you return to normal play mode.

VOLUME

Volume level (0…127)

Every preset allows for an independent volume level that you set here. Using the +/- Value buttons set the level for your sound to a value of your choosing.

TRANSPOSE

Transposition (-36…+36)

You can set a pitch offset in half step increments to affect the tuning for this split. This is a way for you to play notes with your instrument that you couldn’t normally reach with the instrument alone. For our example set this value to –12 (–1 octave), so that the Bass will play within its typical range.

QUANTIZE

Pitch Quantization (AUTO, OFF, ON, TRIGGER)

With this parameter you tell your ZETA SYNTHONY II to execute pitch changes using your normal pitchbend settings or step-wise (quantized):

AUTO:

This setting corresponds to your ZETA SYNTHONY II’s unique ability to recognize your intentions as you play with respect to pitch quantization and then translate them appropriately. Chords for example, are interpreted exactly (no pitchbend information), whereas for melodic notes of a solo which contain string bends and slides, pitch quantization is turned off, allowing for normal pitchbend information to be sent.

OFF:

All pitch changes (slides, etc.) will be translated into pitchbend information allowing for true representation of what you play. (see Global Parameters: Pitchbend range).

ON:

Any variation in pitch will NOT be translated in pitchbend information until the given pitch reaches the next half step and will at that point jump to the new pitch chromatically, but using pitchbend information and NOT sending new note information. Slides, etc. will not be carried out as they
