Editing Setups

This section will help you understand and tame the most powerful feature of the SP2, Setup,
through a few examples.
• There are three basic steps in editing setups.
1. In Setup mode, press [‐/No] button and [+/Yes] button at the same time. The display will
show "S00" that means Default Setup is selected. Press [Edit] button. The blinking LED in
the button indicates that the SP2 is in Editing mode.
2. [‐/No] and [+/Yes] button, or Sound Select buttons in the Category region, select a setup to
be edited and then, edit parameters such as Key Range, Velocity Range or Transpose if
necessary.
3. After editing, store the changes with the associated setup.
The Structure of Setup
Before we begin with the details of setup editing, you may want to know how setups are
constructed.
Basically, a setup is a combination of up to 4 distinct programs which can be individually
played on different regions of the SP2's keyboard. Each region is called a "Zone". Each zone has
its own parameter set which define MIDI transmit channel, controller assignment and key range
of the assigned program.
Although the SP2 can receive MIDI data on only one channel at a time when using with external
MIDI devices, the SP2 will remap the incoming data from the external devices so that you can
use the setup's four zones together. The fourth zone is fixed to drum and percussion sounds.
The SP2 has two special setups you need to check out. They are template setups with basic
settings, which are very convenient for creating new setups.
• Special Setups
Naturally, you can edit any setup you want, changing values of any of dozens of available
parameters. However, the existing setups often have complex interaction between several
parameters. Changing the value of one parameter can have greater impact than you anticipated.
Consequently, we've made a very handy template setup for your convenience.
