Korg Speaker System P3: Edit-MIDIFilter MIDI filter settings, P4: Edit-Zone/Ctrl, Other tab

Other tab

Delay [ms]

Specify the timing of the delay before each timbre sounds.

Select the preset combination A127: One Fin- gerTVShow, and play a single note. Timbres will sound consecutively, according to their Delay setting. If you select KeyOff for this parameter, the timbre will sound when the note is released.

P3: Edit-MIDI Filter

MIDI filter settings

For each MIDI Filter item, you can specify whether or not the corresponding MIDI message will be transmit- ted and received. The checked items will be transmit- ted and received.

For example, suppose that you have a split combina- tion in which timbre 1 uses a bass program and timbre 2 uses a piano program.

You could uncheck “Enable Damper” for timbre 1, and check “Enable Damper” for timbre 2.

With these settings, pressing a damper pedal con- nected to the [DAMPER] jack would apply the damper effect only to the piano program of timbre 2.

For details on each MIDI filter item, refer to p.35 in the Parameter Guide.

The MIDI Filter settings do not switch the corre- sponding function on/off, but merely specify whether or not that MIDI message is transmitted and received. For example if portamento is on, portamento will be applied to the sound of the TRITON even if the “Enable Portamento SW” is unchecked.

P4: Edit-Zone/Ctrl

Layer, split, and velocity switch set- tings

You can make most of the settings necessary for creat- ing layers, splits, velocity switches, keyboard cross- fades, and velocity crossfades.

Key Zone tab (key zone settings)

For each timbre, you can specify the range of notes for which it will sound. Each area that sounds a timbre is referred to as a Key Zone. By setting key zones, you can create a combination in which different programs sound in different areas of the keyboard.

By combining key zones specified for each timbre, you can create layered or split combinations.

The upper and lower limits for the key zone of each timbre are set by the “Top Key” and “Bottom Key” respectively. For example in the following diagram, timbres 1–3 are set to create a layered and split combi- nation. This is specified by the key zone settings. Timbres 2 and 3 create a layer. Timbre 1 and timbres 2/ 3 are split between the B3 and C4 note numbers.

Timbre 3	Strings
Timbre 2	Brass
Timbre 1		Piano
C–1	B3 C4	G9

1To create a combination like the one shown above, first use the P0: Play or P1: Edit-program/Mixer page to select a program for each timbre 1–3.

Select a piano program for timbre 1.

Select a brass program for timbre 2.

Select a strings program for timbre 3.

2In P2: Edit-Trk Param, select the MIDI Channel tab. Set each timbre you wish to use to a “Status” of INT, and a “MIDI Channel” of Gch or the global MIDI channel. (“G” will be displayed following the channel number.)

3In P4: Edit-Zone/Ctrl Key Zone tab, set the “Top Key” and “Bottom Key.”

Set timbre 1 to a “Top Key” of G9 and a “Bottom Key” of C4. Set timbres 2 and 3 to a “Top Key” of B3 and a “Bottom Key” of C–1.

You can also input the value by holding down the [ENTER] key and playing a note.

As an option, you could specify the range velocities, so that a portion of timbre 1 overlapped with tim- bres 2 and 3 (creating a layer), and setting “Top Slope” and “Bottom Slope” so that the volume would change gradually between B3 and B4. This would avoid an abrupt change in sound between the two keyboard areas.
