The field of the layers is made up of four identical sub-fields that are initially labeld with Layer 1-4. But since you can

access up to 8 layers on the MULTISTATION, you may use the [Lay1-4] and [Lay5-8] buttons on the bottom of the

screen to switch among the two sets.

Every layer gives you initially only a few options; however, they are of great significance. Therefore, to understand the

following explanations it is helpful to know how a layer is engeneered and what it causes.

If you select the [Edit] button, you will get to the [MIDI cons] screen. From there you will have several additional

options, that are found in chapter 10. - MIDI Module - on page 103. Please refer there for more details.

In each layer you will find a field that has the number 1 on its first activation. You have the option to select in each

individual layer up to 16384 different layer programs. Through the [Edit] button each individual layer program may be

altered independently from all other layer programs of the same Layer and also independently from all layer programs

in other layers. This allows you not only to use up to 8 Layers per song, but also to define which of the 16384 layer

programs is currently active.

As soon as you edit a layer program, the entry (noname) will appear under the program number. This is mainly a

reminder that programming has been done. In addition it is a reminder to name layer programs in order to differentiate

them from other layer programs. You may name such a program by recalling the

Func option of the functions menu

and then selecting

Patch > Rename in the bottom line. The keyboard screen will appear which allows you to

name the programs. You will find more information about the keyboard screen in chapter 9.2.1 - Functions Menu in

the „Player“ Module / Entry “Pat ch” - on page 55.

The term “patch” is used in the functions menu of the layers screen. Please notice that this term is used by the

MULTISTATION as a synonym for “program”. This is why the term “patch” at the previous described function

Patch >

Rename

is related to the name of the layer program, but not to a patch from a patch list. Please consider: What is

highlighted is always processed (in this case, for example, the field “Layer 1”).
