GETTING READY

1H ACCESSING/EXITING MULTILEVEL (SET-UP 12 & 13)

1.Activate the SET-UP module by pressing its button. Its LED will glow, and the display will ask for a function from the list printed to the right of the SET-UP button.

2.Key in 12 (MULTI-LEVEL). Select the sound to be multileveled by using SELECT to select the Bank containing the sound, then press the sound’s Play button.

3.To edit the factory preset levels, select MIX with the TUNE- MIX-MULTI switch and vary the sliders to change levels. The display shows each sound’s relative level. When the levels are set as desired, press ENTER.

4.While in multilevel, you may also edit the pitch for each level of the sound (or the decay if the sound is set up for decay variations instead of tuning variations). Press the TUNE-MIX- MULTI button and select TUNE/DECAY; the display shows the relative pitch of each sound. Use the sliders as described earlier to set the pitch.

Whenever you select the bank containing the multileveled sound, it will still be in multilevel mode. This will be indicated by the MULTIMODE LED (next to the TUNE- MIX-MULTI switch) being on.

To turn off multilevel:

1.Activate the SET-UP module (if it is not already) and select the bank to “de- multilevel”. The display should be asking “Setup Function?”; if it instead shows the bar graph, press ENTER to alert the computer it can move on to the next task.

2.Key in 13 (EXIT MULTI-MODE). When the display asks “Exit Multi Mode?”, press YES. The Bank will return to its normal preset assignments.

Note: If you later change the mix of a segment or song that contains multilevel effects, these will all increase or decrease proportionately in level. For example, if you programmed some soft sounds and medium level sounds, increasing the mix level will bring up all the sounds by an equivalent amount (within the dynamic range limits of the drum machine, of course).
