Local Off

This button isolates the PRO 2 from its internal sound engine allowing it to be used as a MIDI controller. When Local Off is selected the display will show only the current program number but not the name of the related internal sound.

When in Local Off mode, you may select any bank and program number to be sent to the external MIDI instrument. To do this press the Page up button and use the DATA slider to select a bank number in the range 0-127. Now you can press Page up once more and select any program number in the range 0-127. Configurations created in this way can be stored into performances and the related bank/program number will be sent when the performance is subsequently recalled.

NOTE: Another way of turning a track to Local Off mode is to press the Page up button when the arrow in the screen is pointing to that particular track. This has the exact same effect as pressing the Local Off button.

MIDI Panic

The PRO 1 and PRO 2 feature a hidden “MIDI Panic” function. This function can be used in the event of problems or “lock-ups” during MIDI transmission or reception.

To perform MIDI Panic, first hold the VIBES button and then press the SOUNDS/PERF button.

MIDI Panic

MIDI Panic sends “All Notes Off” and “Reset All Controllers” commands on all active channels.

Demo

Pressing this button will start playback of the factory pre-programmed demonstration song. This song has a number of different parts which will demonstrate various sounds on the instrument.
