Latch Mode, Zones Enabled

If you have Zones enabled, the Latch Low Note and High Note settings are ignored. Instead, Latch Mode is handled on a per-zone basis. Use the Xboard Control software to turn latch mode on or off for each Zone. See “Note Latch Mode Enable” on page 59.

For zones with Latch Mode enabled, turning on Latch mode using the Latch button on your Xboard turns on latch for those zones.

Turning Latch Mode off manually with the Latch button switches off all latched notes, regardless of their channel or the sequence in which they were latched.

Latched notes are NOT switched off upon loading a new patch in which Latch Mode is OFF. To turn these notes off, either return to the original MIDI channel and play the same notes again, or manually switch Latch Mode ON and then OFF.

Snap Shot

The Xboard can store the settings of the 16 knobs and footpedal/footswitch with the Patch. When the Snap Shot button is pressed, the currently stored settings of all performance controls (knobs, wheels, footpedal) are transmitted. The initial setting of the footswitch is not transmitted.

Note: Snap Shot cannot transmit values for controls that are set to NRPN mode.

Here’s an example of how you might use this feature. The knob settings can be stored with the Patch, and can either be transmitted when the Patch is selected or not. For the purpose of this example, suppose the knob settings are NOT transmitted when the Patch is selected. At a certain point in your song, you could press Snap Shot and completely change the sound by sending the stored controller messages.

This feature can also be used in conjunction with the Knob Bypass control to set up, and then send a group of MIDI continuous controllers messages at once. See the description of Bypass Mode.
