Reference
STS Name panel
Select this panel to see the name of the four available STSs. See
“STS Name panel” on page 91 for details.
Volume panel
Touch the Volume tab to select this panel. This is where you can
set the volume of each track, and mute/unmute tracks.
Changing the tracks’ volume and play/mute
status
You can change the volume and play/mute status of each track in
the same way seen for the Style (see “Volume panel” on page 91
for details).
Saving the tracks’ volume and play/mute
status
Each set of tracks can be saved into a different structure. This
allows for a great flexibility when mixing Keyboard and Song
tracks through the use of Performances, STSs and Standard
MIDI Files.
•The status of Keyboard tracks can be saved to a Performance
or STS (see “Write Performance” on page 108 and “Write Single
Touch Setting” on page 108).
• The status of the Song tracks can saved as a general setting in
the Global > Mode Preferences > Song & Sequencer page (see
“Save Trk & FX” on page 154).
This allows for leaving the track status unchanged even when
playing a different Standard MIDI File. You can leave, for exam-
ple, the bass track in mute, and let your bassist play it live for the
whole show.
However, an exception to the above is when reading a Standard
MIDI File created with a Pa-Series instrument. These files do
include special commands to force the Play/Mute status of each
track.
