Adjusting Parameters
Adjusting Synth Parameters
The synth parameters are the ones that occupy the bulk of the remote editor panel
(see page 260). Changes you make to synth parameters always apply to all selected
zones.
D The panel always shows the settings for the zone with edit focus.
More about this below.
D To make adjustments to one zone, select it (which also gives it edit fo-
cus) and adjust the parameter on the front panel.
D To set several zones to the same value, select them and adjust the pa-
rameter.
All zones will be set to the same value for the parameter you adjusted.
Adjusting Group Parameters
Group parameters apply to a group. That is, they are settings that are shared by all
zones in a group.
D To make adjustments to one group, select one or more zones that be-
long to the group, and adjust the parameter on the front panel.
D To set several groups to the same value, select at least one zone in each
group you want to adjust, and adjust the parameter.
All groups will be set to the same value. More about this below.
About “Conflicting” Parameters
Often you will find yourself in a situation where you select multiple zones and parame-
ter settings differ between them. This is quite normal. For example, you will often find
yourself making adjustments to for example level and filtering to balance the sound
between several samples across the keyboard. However, if you have multiple selec-
tions this can sometimes lead to confusion: Enter the NN-XT’s “conflicting parame-
ters” indication:
Whenever two or more selected zones have conflicting parameter settings, NN-XT
will notify you about this by showing a small “M” (for multiple) symbol, next to the pa-
rameter.
In this example, Level and Spread have conflicting settings.
D The controls on the panel always show the setting for the zone with edit
focus.
D By clicking your way through the zones within the selection, you can see
the settings for each zone.
D If you adjust a parameter, all selected zones will be set to the same value
for this parameter.
You can put this functionality to good use when checking how a patch has been cre-
ated and when checking that your own settings are consistent through the various
zones.
Sample Parameters
The Sample parameters allow you to specify various properties for one or several se-
lected zones, such as tuning, key and velocity ranges.
D To set several zones to the same value, select them and adjust the pa-
rameter.
All zones will be set to the same value for the parameter you adjusted.
Copying parameters between zones
You can easily copy parameter settings from one zone to any number of other zones.
Proceed as follows:
1. Select all the zones you want to involve in the operation.
By this we mean the zone with the settings you wish to copy, and the zone(s) to
which you want to copy the settings.
2. Make sure the zone that contains the settings you want to copy has edit fo-
cus.
3. Pull down the Edit menu or the NN-XT context menu and select “Copy Pa-
rameters to Selected Zones”.
All the selected zones will now get the exact same parameter settings.
! Observe that this only applies to the synth parameters (see page 277).
Sample parameters (root key, velocity range etc.) can not be copied.
