Setting-up a Performance for Sequencing

Performance mode allows you to have multiple instruments playing at the same time. Each Performance contains up to 15 different Patches plus a Rhythm Kit. Certain Performances contain Parts that are assigned independent MIDI channels and are designed primarily for MIDI sequencing. Use the following procedure to setup a Performance for sequencing:

1. Press PERFORM, so it is lit.
2. Press PRESET (located in the upper right section of the front panel).
3. Use the VALUE knob to select “Preset A: 12 Pop Set 1.” This Performance is ideal for sequencing.
4. Press PARAMETER, so it is lit. Now, we can choose a parameter to edit.
5. Press the PART (4/12) button to access the Part parameters.
6. Press PALETTE, so it is lit. Now, instead of looking at the parameters for a single Part, we can see the parameters for eight Parts at the same time.

Note: While in the Performance Mode, the parameters in blue text under the LCD are available.

7.Use the CURSOR buttons to select the desired Part (1-16).
8.Set the MIDI channel on your keyboard to match the number of the Part you want to hear. For example, MIDI channel 1 plays the instrument (Patch) assigned to Part 1. MIDI channel 2 plays Part 2, etc.
