MONTAGE Owner’s Manual

The Master Keyboard function lets you assign up to eight separate Zones in each Performance for use as a master keyboard

controller.

You can call up the settings for controlling an external MIDI device instantly anytime you need by combining with the Live Sets.

Accordingly, you can change and control the connected external MIDI tone generator in sequence while performing live.

Making settings for use as a

master keyboard—Zone

When you use the MONTAGE as a master keyboard, you can

divide the keyboard into a maximum of eight independent

areas (called “Zones”). Different MIDI channels and different

functions of the Knobs and Control Sliders can be assigned

to each Zone. This makes it possible to control several Parts

of the internal multi-timbral tone generator simultaneously by

a single keyboard, or control Performances of an external

MIDI instrument over several different channels in addition to

the internal Performances of this synthesizer itself—letting

you use the MONTAGE to effectively do the work of several

keyboards. You can set the parameters related to the eight

Zones and store the settings.

First, set the MONTAGE as a master keyboard by activating

the Zone settings.

1 Press the [UTILITY] button to call up the

Utility display.

2 Touch the [Settings] tab  [Advanced] tab at

the left side of the screen.

3 Touch [Zone Master] to turn it on.

4 Press the [EXIT] button.

This stores the setting and returns to the previous

display.

Next, make settings according to the Master Keyboard

(Zone) for each Performance.

1 Press the [PERFORMANCE] button to call up

the Performance Play display.

2 Move the cursor to the desired Part of the

currently selected Performance and press the

[EDIT] button to edit the Part.

3 Touch the [Part Settings] tab  [Zone

Settings] tab at the left side of the screen.

4 Touch [Zone] to turn it on.

5 Set the Zone related parameters such as MIDI

transmit channel and Note Limit.

6 Touch the [Zone Transmit] tab to set the

transmit switches as desired.

After completing these settings, press the [STORE] button to

store the Performances.
