Playing Songs The control surface in Sequencer mode
81
Use the MIX SELECT switches to select the input/track you
want to control, and use the knobs to control them.
MIX PLAY/MUTE, MIX SELECT: These switches work in
the same way as they do for TIMBRE/TRACK, as described
above.
EXTERNAL
When EXTERNAL is selected, the control surface is used to
transmit MIDI messages to an external MIDI device. For
more information, see “0–9e: External” on page 543 of the
Parameter Guide.
RT KNOBS/KARMA
When RT KNOBS/KARMA is selected, the sliders and
switches of the control surface are used to control KARMA.
For more information, see “0–9f: RT (Real Time
Knobs)/KARMA” on page 545 of the Parameter Guide.
TONE ADJ/EQ
When TONE ADJ/EQ (Tone Adjust) is selected, the control
surface is used to temporarily adjust the program used by
each MIDI track. For example while you’re creating a song,
you can use this capability to adjust the sound appropriately
for your song without going back to Program mode; you
might soften the tone of the bass or speed-up the attack of a
strings program, and make these changes happen in realtime
while the song plays.
Use Track in the right side of the LCD to select the MIDI
track you want to adjust.
For more information, see “0–9g: Tone Adjust” on page 547
of the Parameter Guide.
Note: EQ is only available in Set List mode. For more
information, see “Graphic EQ” on page 127.
