Korg MICRO manual Editing each timbre, Using both timbres Layer, Listening to only one timbre Solo

Basic editing

Editing each timbre

Synth programs can have up to two timbres.

A timbre consists of the parameters of EDIT SELECT 1 VOICE (except for "SYNTH/VOCODER" and "SINGLE/LAYER") through LFO2 sections, and the parameters of EDIT SELECT 2 PATCH 1–4sections.

The VOICE section parameters "SYNTH/VOCODER" and "SINGLE/LAYER" apply to the entire program.

Using both timbres (Layer)

❍Set the EDIT SELECT 1 knob to VOICE, and turn knob 2 to select

LAYER ().

Listening to only one timbre (Solo)

For a program that uses both timbres, you can use the Solo function to hear just one timbre. This is convenient when you want to hear just one timbre while you edit.

1Hold down the SHIFT key and press the TIMBRE SELECT key.

The TIMBRE SELECT LED for the timbre selected for editing will start blinking, and only that timbre will sound.

2If you want to hear only the other timbre, once again hold down the SHIFT key and press the TIMBRE SELECT key.

The TIMBRE SELECT LED for the other timbre will start blinking, and only that timbre will sound. The timbre selected for editing will also change at this time.

3To cancel the Solo function, press the TIMBRE SELECT key.

The Solo state cannot be memorized.

Selecting the timbre to edit

If you are editing a program that uses both timbres, here's how to select the timbre to edit.

❍Press the EDIT SELECT TIMBRE SELECT key to select the timbre that you want to edit. (The corresponding TIMBRE SELECT LED will light.)

Your editing will affect the selected timbre.

You can also edit both timbres simultaneously (Edit Sync).

1Press and hold the TIMBRE SELECT key for at least two seconds.

Both TIMBRE SELECT LEDs will light, and editing will be synchronized for the two timbres. The display will indicate the value for timbre 1. The value of timbre 1 will also be used as the value at which editing begins.

2To cancel edit sync, press the TIMBRE SELECT key.

Edit sync will be cancelled, and timbre 1 will be the object of editing.

You can use the Solo function even while editing is synchronized.

The state of the edit sync function is not saved.

Exchanging and copying the settings of the timbres (SHIFT function)

You can exchange the settings of the two timbres, or copy the timbre settings from another program. (➝ p.59)
