Resumen del manual
You can activate as many registers as you like. Note: The SUSTAIN function is not available in Organ mode. An optional footswitch connected to the SUSTAIN jack will thus not allow you to hold the notes. Note: The [TREMULANT] register cannot be used by itself. It must be combined with at least one other MANUAL register. It has no effect on the BASS sounds. 3. Press the {ORGAN BRILLIANCE] button (indicator goes off) if you want to make the organ sound mellower. Registering the Bass sound The C-180 also features a bass section that can either be triggered via the keyboard, or via an optional PK-5 dynamic MIDI pedal unit. There are in fact two ways of triggering the bass notes: • A bass note corresponding to the lowest note you play to the left of the symbol is sounded by the BASS tone and added to the MANUAL tone. • Bass-only triggering without the MANUAL sound. See “Playing only bass notes to the left of the split point” on page 10. Use the two BASS tabs ({SUB BASS 16*] and OCTAVE 8']) to add one or two bass notes to your playing. 6 o The bass note corresponds to the lowest note you play. Selecting various organ timbres By default (and as long as you do not save your own registrations), the four [M] buttons allow you to vary the timbre of the organ registrations: Press [Ml] to select a soft timbre and volume, {M2] for a “p" (“piano”) sound, [M3] for an “mf" (“mezzo-forte") sound, and [M4] for the “tutti" (“full works”) sound. The corresponding indicator lights. Note: Only one memory can be active at any one time. Note: See page 15 for how to save and recall your own settings to these memories. Note: Press [CANCEL] to return set all tilt tabs off. 9 Owner's Manual 3.2 BASS functions Changing the split point As stated above, the left-hand part of the keyboard can be used to add bass notes to your playing. The C-180 scans all keys from the far left up to the split point to decide which bass notes to play. After activating this split function, only the BASS part will sound: it will sound the lowest note you play to the left of the symbol. iWIEllill N-H ■■ BASS range (can be changed) H-M MANUAL range (without BASS split) N-H MANUAL range (with BASS split, see below) Note: Do not forget to switch on at least one BASS tab in order to hear the bass notes. At first, the split point is located at the symbol (the G#3 key), but this can be changed: 1. Activate one of the two BASS registers (the SUB BASS or OCTAVE 8’ indicator must light). 2. Press and hold the tab you just pressed until its indicator starts flashing. 3. Now press the key where you would like the new split point to be. You can select any key in the indicated area: Press and hold either tab... + II III t| III II III II III II Iff ...press any key in this range 4 Playing only bass notes to the left of the split point You can also activate a BASS split function that will mute the MANUAL part to the left of the split point, leaving only the BASS part in the left half of the keyboard: 1. Press and hold a BASS tab, whose indicator does not light, in the off position (press the side closer to the keyboard). Its indicator starts flashing. 2. Start playing with your left and right hands. This time, the left half of the keyboard can be used to play monophonic bass lines (one note at the time), while the right half allows you to trigger the organ registers (see page 9). To switch off this BASS split mode, press and hold the BASS tab in the “off" position until it flash again. Playing the bass notes with an optional PK-5 The C-180’s BASS registers can also be triggered via MIDI. The best way to do so is by using an optional PK-5 MIDI bass pedal unit. With the following procedure you can set the C-180 so that the entire keyboard triggers the MANUAL organ registers, while the PK-5 (or another MIDI instrument) plays the BASS notes. 1. Switch off the C-180 and the PK-5. 2. Connect the PK-5’s MIDI OUT port to the C-180’s MIDI IN connector. 3. Switch on the PK-5 and set it to transmit on MIDI channel “14”. 4. Hold down one of the BASS tabs (in the “on” position) while switching on the C-180. 5. Start playing on the keyboard and on the PK-5. 10 C-180 3.3 Additional functions Note: See page 15 for how to save your settings to a registration memoiy. Adding Reverb The C-180 allows you to add reverberation to what you play on the keyboard. The Reverb effect provides a pleasant reverberation that gives the impression that you are performing in a concert hall or similar space. Note: In Orchestra mode (see page 13), the Reverb effect is not applied to the BASS sound. 1. Press the [REVERB] button (indicator lights). 2. To cancel the Reverb effect, press the [REVERB] button once again. Its indicator goes dark. Changing the Reverb level If you like the Reverb effect but think it is too prominent or too faint, here’s how to change the Reverb depth: 3. Press and hold the [REVERB] button until its indicator starts flashing...
