EXi Common parameters

EXi, or Expansion Instruments, extend the capabilities
of OASYS by adding new synthesis technologies. Out
of the box, OASYS comes with two EXi: the AL-1
analog modeling synthesizer, and the CX-3 modeled
tonewheel organ.
You can combine any two EXi within an EXi Program.
Each EXi may have its own, very different parameters,
which you can access via the EXi1 and EXi2 buttons at
the bottom of the screen.
All EXi Programs also include a standard palette of
capabilities, including effects, KARMA, key tracking,
and the Common LFO and Common Step Sequencer.
These standard parameters are available in the pages
under the Common button, and are described in this
chapter.

Auto Song Setup

The Auto Song Setup feature copies the current
Program or Combination into a Song, and then puts
the OASYS in record-ready mode.
If inspiration for a phrase or song strikes you while
you’re playing, you can use this function to start
recording immediately. To do so:
1. Hold down the ENTER key and press the
SEQUENCER REC/WRITE key.
The Setup to Record dialog box will open and ask “Are
you sure?”
2. Press OK.
You will automatically enter Sequencer mode, and will
be in the record-ready state.
3. Press the START/STOP key to start the sequencer
and begin recording.
