Setting the Pitch Bend Range

You can adjust the bend range of pitch controls from 1 to 12 semitones.

Note: The keyboard automatically se- lects a bend range of 2 semitones the first time you turn it on after connecting power. Each time you turn it on after that, it recalls the last selected bend range.

Follow these steps to adjust the pitch bend range.

1.Repeatedly press TRANSPOSE/ TUNE/MIDI until a number and Bend appear on the display.

2.Within 5 seconds, press + or – on the keypad until the pitch bend range you want appears on the dis- play, or enter a number from 01–12.

USING A SUSTAIN PEDAL

For added flexibility and control as you make music, you can connect a sustain pedal (not supplied), available through your local RadioShack store. A sustain pedal lets you sustain or soften the key- board’s sound, and even start or stop an auto-rhythm.

ASSIGNABLE

JACK

To connect a sustain pedal to your MD- 1600, insert the plug on the pedal’s cord into ASSIGNABLE JACK on the back of the keyboard.

You can adjust the MD-1600’s assign- able jack to these settings when you use a sustain pedal.
