1: Master control
These controls set the overall volume, vacuum tube (Nutube)
drive volume, keyboard dynamics sensitivity, keyboard octave
and so on. (See page 12)
2: Part select
Selects the sound part for performance (ORGAN, E.PIANO,
PIANO, KEY/LAYER).
Up to two parts can be turned on and played at the same time.
(See page 12)
3: ORGAN part
Selects the variation for the CX-3, VOX, or COMPACT organ
sound. (See page 13)
You can also control the percussion, vibrato/chorus, and rotary
speaker simulation.
There are two types of settings, one for UPPER (the upper part
of the keyboard) and one for LOWER (the lower part of the
keyboard). You can split the keyboard into upper and lower
parts, or use an external MIDI keyboard to play the lower part
of the VOX Continental.
The touch sensors can be used to control the drawbars.
4: E. PIANO part
Selects the typical tines and reeds for vintage electric piano,
and the sound variations for the FM-type electric piano. (See
page 14)
5: PIANO part
Selects the sound variations for the grand, upright, and electric
grand piano sounds. The grand piano sound uses large, non-
looping waveform samples in full stereo sound across the
keyboard for both delicate and powerful, richly expressive
sound. (See page 14)
6: KEY/LAYER part
Selects various types of sound variations, such as clavinet,
brass, strings, synthesizer and so on. (See page 14)
You can use the touch sensors to control the amp EG, filter or
LFO.

You can simultaneously control multiple settings by touching
the nine touch sensors with LEDs.
These sensors control the organ drawbars, KEY/LAYER filter,
EG, LFO and the overall EQ settings. (See page 15)
8: Scene select

your favorite variations or effects and instantly recall them
during live performance or other situations. (See page 17)
The EXIT button is also used when making system settings.

Sets the trio of effects including the EFFECT (chorus, phaser
and so on), DELAY and REVERB, as well as the EQ (equalizer).
(See page 18)
10: Bend lever
Used to switch between speeds for the organ rotary speaker
simulation, turn the tremolo of the electric piano on/off, and bend
the pitch of the KEY/LAYER variation up or down. (See page 9)
11: Keyboard
The keyboard of the VOX Continental is velocity sensitive, but
aftertouch is not supported. This keyboard features waterfall
keys, making it possible to perform glissandos, trills and so on
like with a vintage tonewheel organ. (See page 9)
