1. Press either the PROG or COMBI switch.
2. In the display, touch the “Category” box at the top of the display.
 This is on the “Main” tab in Program Mode, and the “Prog 1-8” tab in Combi mode.
3. Choose the type of sound using the tabs on the left and right sides of the center menu in the display, and either touch
the desired sound in the display, or use the panel controls to select a sound.
4. Either play the keys, or hit the eight velocity-sensitive pads just below the display.
Note: You can stay right here in the Category page while you try out sounds… No need to touch “OK” until you’ve found the one
you want to work with in Program or Combi Play mode!

That beautiful TouchView display makes it easy to find and edit sounds… and it also makes it easy to control them!
Just press the X/Y MODE switch, and it becomes a controller… just like our world-famous KAOSS™ pads!
1. Go to PROG mode and select Program INT A005: Attacking Synth.
2. Press the X/Y MODE switch. (The display will change color just a bit)
3. Play a chord (or hit a pad) and rub your finger around on the display. The sound (and the display color) will change a
LOT! So will the sound… Nice!
Note: In this sound and many others, left-right movement controls filter cutoff, while up-down movement controls effect depth.
Check out the MOTION Function in X/Y Mode:
The M3 can memorize your finger’s movement by using the MOTION function…
1. Hold down the MOTION switch, and move your finger around on the display.
2. Now, lift your finger, release the MOTION switch, and hold it down again. It will play back the recorded movements you
made! A motion recording can be saved along with the Program/Combi/Sequence, and many preset sounds have motion
already saved! How cool is this?!!!! But wait, there’s more…
While in Combi mode, X/Y control can do much more than modify filters or effects… You can actually blend different
sounds together…
1. Go to COMBI mode and select Combination INT A009: Advanced XY Groove.
2. Press the X/Y MODE switch to the right of the display.
3. Press a key/chord (or hit a pad) to start the groove, and then move your fingers to the different corners of the display.
Ah-ha!!!! Things are heatin’ up!!! Now check this out…
