Can you explain some of the terms like Object and Samples?
If youÕve been wondering what we mean by the term Òobject,Ó itÕs an expression we use for
anything that can be named, saved, deleted, or edited. HereÕs a list of all the types of objects:
Samples Digital recordings of instrumental sounds or waveforms. Samples
actually have two separate parts: the actual sample data and the sample
header information, which contains start, alternative start, loop, and end
points, as well as other information like tuning and volume.
Keymaps Collections of samples assigned to speci-c velocity ranges and/or keys.
Programs Factory-preset or user-programmed sounds stored in ROM or RAM.
A program is one or more layers of sound, with programmable DSP
functions applied to the keymaps within each layer.
Setups Factory-preset or user-programmed MIDI performance presets consisting
of up to eight zones, each with its own program, MIDI channel, and
controller assignments, and (optionally) arpeggiation speci-cations.
Songs Sequence -les loaded into RAM, or MIDI data recorded in Song mode.
Studios Factory-preset or user-programmed con-gurations of the K2600Õs
onboard digital audio effects processor.
FX presets Factory-preset or user-programmed dataÑincluding effects algorithms,
levels and balanceÑthat de-ne the nature of studios.
Quick Access banks Factory-preset or user-programmed banks of ten entries each, that store
programs and setups for single-button access in Quick Access mode.
Velocity maps Factory-preset or user-programmed curves that affect the K2600Õs
response to, and MIDI transmission of, attack velocity values.
Pressure maps Factory preset or user-programmed curves that affect the K2600Õs
response to, and MIDI transmission of, pressure (aftertouch) values.
Intonation tables Factory preset or user-programmed tables that affect the intervals
between the twelve notes of each octave.
Master tables The values that are set for the global control parameters on the
Master-mode page, as well as the settings for the parameters on the
CHANNELS page in MIDI mode, and the programs currently assigned to
each MIDI channel.
Fader tables MIDI Controller assignments de-ned on the MIDI Faders pages.
Name tables Contains a list of dependent objects needed by the other objects in a -le at
the time the -le was saved.
Macros List of disk -les to be loaded into the K2600Õs memory at start-up time.
