326 Chapter 22 EVB3
Keyboard Split
The EVB3 can also be played perfectly with a single MIDI keyboard (one manual) that is
only capable of transmitting on one MIDI send channel. You can split the keyboard in
order to play Upper, Lower, and Pedal sounds on different keyboard zones.
In the parameter field in the bottom center of the interface, set Keyboard Mode to
Split.
Set the keyboard zones with the UL Split and LP Split parameters, in conjunction with
the Set buttons. The abbreviations are for: Upper/Lower and Lower/Pedal.
To set the keyboard zone:
1 Click on the appropriate Set button (it will turn orange).
2 Press the desired note on your MIDI keyboard.
If you select the same value for both split points, the Lower manual is not heard/active.
If the LP Split is set to a value above the UL Split, the other splitpoint is moved (and
vice versa).
Note: In order to use preset switching in conjunction with Keyboard Mode Split, you
might need to adjust the transpositions for the Upper Manual (Trans UM), Lower
Manual (Trans LM) and Pedal (Trans Ped).
Transposition (Octave Range)
You can individually transpose the Upper (Trans UM), Lower (Trans LM) and Pedal
(Trans Ped) registers up/down one or two octaves, independent of the global transpose
functions. Transposition is useful for setting the various registers to a particular range to
match your needs. This facility is particularly important when using split mode.
Note: These manual-specific transpositions have no impact on the preset keys. Also see
“Preset Keys and Morphing” on page 333.
