Pads; Assignable Switches; The Save Button - Kurzweil PC3LE6 Musician's Manual

When using a KB3 organ program, the blue KB3 LED will light (above the Shift button at the left
of the Assignable Controls,) and the Assignable Controls will control the KB3 organ functions
labeled below the control names. For example, the control labeled Timbre emulates an organ's
16' drawbar (as is labeled below Timbre.) Use the Assignable Controls Shift button to access
more organ controls.

Pads

The PC3LE's eight pads are located below the display. The pads can be assigned to trigger notes
or control other functions. When you select a PC3LE program in Program mode, the PC3LE will
also select an associated Drum program to be triggered by the Pads. The program for the Pads is
assigned to MIDI channel 10.

Assignable Switches

The Assignable Switches (see below) are located in the upper left of the panel. Use these to
switch FX on and off, mute layers of sound, or control other functions. Each of the 5 switches can
control two separate functions independently, effectively giving you access to 10 switches. Use
the Shift button to the left of these switches to toggle between accessing switches 1-5 or 6-10.
Pressing this Shift button will light one of the LEDs of the two rows of labels below the
Assignable Switches. This lets you know which set of switches you are using (either SW1-SW5
or SW6-SW10.) When using a KB3 program, the blue KB3 LED will light (below the LED for the
two rows of labels,) and the Assignable Switches will control the KB3 organ functions labeled
below the switch names.

The Save Button

The Save button is located to the right of the display. While on the Program mode main page,
the LED on the Save button will light when you have changed any of the control states of the
assignable knobs, switches, or other control sources (for example turning a switch on or off,
changing a knob position, etc.) When the LED on the Save button is lit, press the Save button
twice to quickly save your "tweaked" version of the current program. If you haven't previously
edited the program, this will save a new copy of the program under a new ID#. If you have
previously edited the program, this will replace the current program by saving under the same
ID#.
