Pa1X / PA1X Pro EasyStart

Welcome!

Congratulations! The Pa1X and PA1X Pro are the most powerful arranger workstations available on earth. (And Mars, once colonization begins…)

The goal of this Easy Start is to get you familiar and comfortable with the basics. It is recommended that after you have mastered the features and functions covered herein, you take a look through the Owner’s Manual to achieve true “Master” status.

!Please note that in this guide, all references to “Pa1X” are also for the mighty PA1X Pro!

Main Screen

The intuitive Color TouchView interface on the Pa1X allows for extremely fast and easy access to many of the Pa1X features and parameters. You can even access on screen Help menus! (HELP button to the right of the display)

Before we dive in, let’s get familiar with the main screen…

!HOLD IT! Before you power-up the Pa1X, make sure that the BALANCE slider located beneath the display is in the center position!

!Please note the DISPLAY HOLD button to the right of the display. When lit, a selected screen will stay displayed until the EXIT button is pressed. When the display hold function is turned off, the display will return to the main page automatically after several seconds.
