Quick Start
Thanks for purchasing your Mopho synthesizer! Listen to the sounds, twiddle
some knobs, have some fun!
Please Register!
Please go to www.davesmithinstruments.com and register your synth. If you
purchased directly from us, there is no need to register—we already have your
contact information.
Powering Up
So, plug in the power supply, connect (in stereo!!) to your mixer/sound system,
and start playing!
You can use the P
USH IT switch to trigger sounds without a keyboard. If you’re
using a MIDI keyboard, try applying keyboard pressure (aftertouch) and the
mod wheel. Many sounds are fairly simple at first, then come alive when you
use the controllers. With other sounds, you may need to hold the notes a while to
let the sound unfold. Playing in different ways has a big effect on the programs.
Selecting and Editing Programs and Global Settings
You can use the increment and decrement (+ and -) switches to step through the
programs. Hold them down briefly to increment or decrement the bank. There
are 3 banks of 128 programs.
If you want to edit a program, just turn any knob. The new value will be
displayed in the bottom line of the LCD (the top line displays the programmed
value for handy reference).
After turning knobs, just hit P
ROGRAM MODE so the LCD goes back to the
program/bank screen, allowing you to change programs again.
Press and hold the P
ROGRAM MODE switch briefly to display the Global menu
and change higher level parameters such as MIDI channel number,
Transpose/Detune, and so on. The P
ROGRAM knob changes the displayed page
and increment and decrement change the values. These settings are remembered
when the synth is turned off.
Summary
You should be up and running now; for more operation information, read on. Or,
just look up specific parameters for detailed notes. Pages 26 through 28 contain
a handy reference for mod destinations and sources. At some point you should
