Resumen del manual
Let's start with the basics: - A Combination is a setup that combines 2 or more Programs, hence the name. - In Combination Edit Mode, you can change settings for a Combination. You can get to the Combination Edit Mode by pressing the COMBI button, then the EDIT button. You can move up and down through the various screens of this mode with the up and down directional buttons, located to the right of the screen. - A Combination has 8 Timbres, or areas that can hold a sound. - You can select one sound for each Timbre, but it is not necessary to use all eight. You can assign a sound to a Tambre on screen 1A in the Combination Edit Mode. - Timbres can be switched On or Off . If a Timbre is on, you can hear the sound on it. If it's off, the Timbre will not play, even if a sound has been selected. The best way to turn on a Timbre is to set its "channel" to "1G". This is done on screen 3a of the Combination Edit Mode. - You can place sounds either on top of one another (A Layer), or set them to play on specified areas of the keyboard (A Split). In other words, if you assign two sounds over the same range of keys, both sounds will be heard when you play in that range. This is the characteristic of a Layer. If two different sounds reside over different areas of the keyboard, and never cross each other, it's a Split. - Keep in mind that each Timbre includes a separate set of information for the sound it carries. Things like Pitch, Transpose, Volume and Pan. These aside, the two most important settings for our purposes are called Key Window Top and Key Window Bottom, which are located on screens 4a and 4b in the Combination Edit Mode. Think of Key Windows as barriers for where a sound can be heard: - When playing, a Timbre won't sound ABOVE the note selected in Key Window Top. - When playing, a Timbre won't sound BELOW the note selected in Key Window Bottom. - In other words, setting a Key Window Top and Bottom for any given Timbre tells the keyboard that only those notes and what's in between them will play the sound on that Timbre. This gives you the flexibility to decide what range of the keyboard a sound will play on. - You can set the Key Windows precisely by key, giving you any possibility of ranges for any given Timbre. Below is a 61 keyboard, with the name for each key, as it would appear in the Key Windows: - Each key has a note and a number for which octave it appears in. So, let's say you wanted the first Timbre to play only on the first two octaves. You'd set the Key Window Bottom to C2, and the Key Window Top to C4. Now, the first Timbre will only play on C2, C4 and the key span in between… Setting Timbre two's Key Window Bottom to D4 and Top to C7 will cover the rest of the keyboard with another sound. Now you have a Split!! Setting up Timbre three with the same Key Windows as Timbre two, will play the two sounds together… a Layer!!! Now that you have the basics, let's apply what we've learned to create a Combination. First, we'll get into the edit mode: 1. Press the COMBI button to enter the Combination mode. 2. Press the EDIT button to enter the Combination Edit mode. Next, we'll initialize the Combination, so that all of the parameters are reset: 1. Press the 8 button on the left-hand side of the keyboard. (It's also marked "Effect Speed"). 2. Push the up directional button on the right-hand side of the screen two times. This will bring you to page 8C - "Init Combi". 3. Press the YES button on the left-hand side of the screen twice. This will reset the Combination for editing. Now, we'll select the sounds for our setup: 1. Press the "1" button on the left-hand side of the unit (It's also marked "Octave Type"). This will take you to screen 1A "Program 1-4". Here, you can see and select sounds for the first four Timbres. 2. Using the value slider or YES/NO buttons, set the first Tambre to "A06" (NuFretless). This will be our Bass sound for the left hand. 3. Press the right directional button once to highlight the sound for the second Timbre. 4. Using the value slider or YES/NO buttons, set the second Timbre to "A01" (N Piano). This will be our first sound for the right hand. 5. Press the right directional button once again to highlight the sound for the third Timbre. 6. Using the value slider or YES/NO buttons, set the third Timbre to "A05" (N Strings). This will be our other sound for the right hand. Next, we'll turn those three Timbres on: 1. Press the "3" button on the left-hand side of the unit (It's also marked VDF EG Octave) This will take you to screen 3A "Channel". The first Timbre should already be set to "1G". 2. Timbre three should be highlighted from selecting the sounds on the previous screen. Press the left directional button once, so that the second Timbre's channel setting is highlighted. 3. Using the value slider or YES/NO buttons, set the second Timbre to "1G". 4. Press the right directional button once again to highlight the third Timbre. 5. Using the value slider or YES/NO buttons, se...
