Using the CHAIN PARAMETERS menu to create a KEYBOARD SPLIT
1. To directly access the CHAIN PARAMETERS menu, use the POLY section's EDIT
switch three times and the menu will appear, and the EDIT switch will ash.
Do this for both DeepMind units.
2. Select POLY-CHAIN OFF for each unit. (PROGRAM-LINK is not an available
option when POLY-CHAIN is OFF.)
3. Select KEY-RANGE ON for each unit.
4. You can either set the value of each range manually, using the -/NO and +/
YES switches, rotary knob, or DATA ENTRY fader, or you can HOLD down the
EDIT switch in the POLY section, as described in the details below.
Setting up the rst unit
5. Press and hold the EDIT switch on the rst unit, with RANGE-LOWER
selected, and press the lowest key on the keyboard (for example).
6. Press and hold EDIT on the rst unit, with RANGE-UPPER selected, and press
the B below middle C on the keyboard (for example).

7. Press and hold EDIT on the second unit, with RANGE-LOWER selected, and
press the middle C key on the keyboard (for example).
8. Press and hold EDIT on the second unit, with RANGE-UPPER selected, and
press the last key on the keyboard (for example).
Note: If you see that the setting up of range of this second unit aects the
range of the rst unit, make sure that MIDI CTRL is set to CC and not NRPN.
9. If you have a third DeepMind unit and want to set up a 3-way KEYBOARD
SPLIT, make sure the MIDI IN of the 3rd unit is connected to the MIDI-THRU of
the 2nd unit, and not MIDI OUT.
10. Then set up the 3rd unit's RANGE-LOWER and RANGE-UPPER in the
same way.
OPERATION OF THE KEYBOARD SPLIT
1. In rst example, the rst DeepMind unit can play the notes that are below
middle C.
2. The second DeepMind unit can play the notes that are middle C and above.
3. Each unit can play its own program, and the volume of the audio output
from each unit can be adjusted with the volume controls, or the external
audio mixer.
4. To exit the KEYBOARD SPLIT mode, turn the KEY-RANGE OFF in each CHAIN
PARAMETERS menu.
