This button takes you to the Info Page,
which contains an introduction to
Bassam Ayoub and a list of all
Midi Song Keys, the corresponding
tunings and speeds, and a description
of the feature.
More information about
Midi Song Keys can be found below.
Keyswitches allow you to switch between articulations, which can then
be played on the playing range to create incredibly realistic
performances. You have to distinguish between Latch and Hold
Keyswitches. While Latch Keyswitches remain active after the key is
released, Hold Keyswitches remain active only as long as they are
pressed and held by the player - after the key is released, the
articulation changes to the last selected Latch Keyswitch.
More information about all keyswitches can be found on the next page.
The green Midi Song Keys above the playing range play short
midi sequences, which demonstrate the numerous playing possibilities of
Arabic Oud. Since the original songs differ in speed and microtuning,
you have to adjust them manually to get the intended sound of a song.
A list of all songs can be found on the Info Page.
