User manual

Use the [OCTAVE] buttons to transpose the entire keyboard in semitone incre‐
ments up or down. The display shows the selected step (‘–12’…‘0’…‘12’).
To switch between Octave and Transpose mode, first switch to Performance oper‐
ating mode ([SCENE] and [MENU] do not light up). Press one of the two [VALUE] but‐
tons and use [VALUE] to select between ‘MODE:OCT’ and ‘MODE:TRA’.
Use the Pitchbend wheel to vary the pitch up or down while playing. How many sem‐
itones can be pitch bended up or down depends on the tone generator used. The
Pitch Bend wheel automatically returns to the neutral position.
The function of the modulation wheel depends on the tone generator used. Usually,
this controls the intensity of a vibrato effect.
On delivery, the velocity-sensitive trigger pads are assigned to drum sounds. When
hitting a pad, the note number and the velocity value are shown on the keyboard's
display. If you hit and hold the pad, additional messages depending on the hit inten‐
sity are sent through the Aftertouch function.
All pads have double allocation. With [BANK] you can switch between the two
corresponding memory banks.
With [A.TOUCH] you can disable the Aftertouch function of the pads (button light on)
or enable it (button light off).
[VEL.CURVE] allows you to adjust the touch sensitivity of all trigger pads to four
levels: ‘soft’, ‘hard’, ‘fixed’, ‘normal’.
With [8 LEVELS] you can set the touch sensitivity of all trigger pads to a fixed value:
‘16’, ‘32’, ‘48’, ‘64’, ‘80’, ‘96’, ‘112’ and ‘127’. The button lights up when the mode is
active.
With [FULL LEVEL] you set the touch sensitivity of all trigger pads to the maximum
value ‘127’. The button lights up when the mode is active.
With [HOLD] you activate the Hold mode of the trigger pads. In this mode, hitting a
pad triggers the assigned function. To exit, the pad needs to be hit again. The button
lights up when the mode is active.
With [ROLL] you activate the Pad Roll mode. If you hit and hold a pad in this mode,
notes are sent until you release the pad again. The tempo is defined via parameters
‘PAD ROLL TEMPO’ and ‘PAD ROLL DIVIDER’ (internal synchronization) or the tempo
set in your DAW software and ‘PAD ROLL DIVIDER’ (external synchronization). The
button lights up when the mode is active. The function is not available in ‘Control
messages’ mode.
With [MODE] you toggle between the transmission modes of the trigger pads (note
or controller commands). The button lights up in ‘Controller commands’ mode. No
MIDI notes are transmitted in this mode. The Aftertouch function and the velocity of
the pads are disabled.
