Operation Manual

LEFT CONTROL: FIRST PAGE

F1 Jump Intro:Works in combination with the INTRO 1, 2, 3 push buttons. When enabled, and with the Arranger in Stop condition,

after having pressed one of the three INTRO push buttons, the Arranger starts playing only the bars of the relevant

Ending. When the Arranger is playing, pressing one of the INTRO 1, 2, 3 push buttons causes the Arranger to play the

bars of the Intro selected and to continue playing the currently activated Arrange.

F2 Jump Fill:To be used in combination with the FILL 1, 2, 3 push buttons. When the Arranger is playing and this function is

enabled, after the Fill 1 or 2 bar, the XD9 selects the Arrange part superior to the one in use, following the order A >

B > C > D; after the Fill 3 bar, the XD9 selects the Arrange part that is inferior to the one in use, following the order D

> C > B > A. With the Arranger stopped, the FILL 1, 2, 3 push buttons start the reproduction of the selected Fill, and

then start the Arranger reproduction without interruption.

F3 Manual Bass: This excludes all the parts of the Arranger and leaves the Drum tracks and the bass timbre activated. The bass can

then be manually played on the keyboard portion to the left of the split point.

F4 To Root: If this function is enabled, the notes of the bass track are all referred to the fundamental note of the chord tonality,

excluding the harmonic evolution. This can be used together with F5 To Lowest.

F5 To Lowest: If this function is enabled the harmonic bass evolution has its lowest note always referred to the lowest one of the

chord played. This makes it possible to perform a number of pieces of music keeping unaltered the melodic structure

of the bass.

F6 Lock Drum: This makes it possible to lock the Drum Set change independently from which Arrangement has been chosen, within

the same Style. This means that when you change from one Arrangement to another, this section will remain unal-

tered. If this function is activated while switching over to another Style, the previous settings will be maintained with

the sounds of the Style selected, i.e. also the Style selected last will have one or more accompaniment tracks identi-

cal for all Arrangements.

F7 Lock Bass: The same as for Lock Drum, but dedicated to the Bass track.

F8 Lock Chord:The same as for Lock Drum, but dedicated to the Chord 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 parts.

F9 Interactive:

This activates the Interactive Arrange function and can be programmed from the second page of the Left Control menu.

F10 Split:

This calls up the keyboard Split function, which can be called up also from the main page using the EXIT push button.
