Setup Menu
The Setup menu gives access to additional functions such as selecting Transpose button functions, control assign, selecting
velocity curves and more. To enter the menu, press the [Octave Up]+[Transpose Up] together (the two buttons in the yellow
box, right image).
This will mute the MIDI output of the keyboard and instead the keyboard now is used to
select menus.
When the Setup menu is active, the LED above the button will blink and its color is orange
to indicate setup is active.
The chart below provides an overview of menus assigned to each key.
Menu keys are the same for both SE49 and SE4961 but value entry using the keyboard is one octave higher on SE4961.
Refer to the screen printing on the unit to see which keys to press to enter values.
The functions are separated in to two groups. The first group spanning C1-G#1 covers general setup functions.
The second group spanning C2-E2 covers the transpose button assignment options.
On the following page we cover how each of these menus work. Note the documentation assumes you have an understanding
of MIDI including how it works and behaves. If you are not familiar with MIDI, we recommend you study MIDI before making
control assignment changes to your keyboard. A good place to start is the MIDI Manufacturers Association www.midi.org
