9.12 PLAYING A SOUND
Playing a Sound is done by using the [KEYBOARD] keys. Select the Sound that will be played by pressing
[TRACK 1–4] keys. The information on the screen showing which kit is loaded will briefly change to reflect
the name of the loaded Sound.
The [KEYBOARD] key range spans one octave and one note. The first and last [KEYBOARD] keys play by
default a C note. To change octaves, press the [UP] and [DOWN] arrow keys. The <OCTAVE> LEDs indi-
cate which octave is selected. The octave range possible to select ranges from -5 to 5. Please note it is not
possible to change octaves if a menu utilizing the [ARROW] keys is open.
Sounds can be played back in portamento or legato modes. Settings controlling this are found in the
SOUND menu. For more information, please see “9.6 SOUND MENU” on page 31.
When selecting the FX track, the <TRACK LED> of the previously active track will become
half-bright. This indicates that the [KEYBOARD] keys still trig notes on this track. This allows
hearing how eect parameter changes will aect the previously active track. Press [TRACK
5] key again to make the FX track fully active. The [KEYBOARD] keys will then control the
FX track.
