The Zone-specific Parameters
To edit the currently selected parameter, simply use the Next and Previous Value buttons
below the display. Pressing both Value buttons simultaneously will jump to a different
value depending on the parameter—the jump value is mentioned in each of the parameter
descriptions below. Additionally, you can use the secondary numeric functions of the Group
Select and Sound Select buttons.
The Zone-specific Parameters
Each of the four Zones in Setup has 43 parameters that determine its behavior. Since the
Zones of a Setup are independent of each other, changing a parameter for a certain Zone
will not affect the parameters of any other Zone.

Local Program

The Local Program parameter determines the Program to be loaded for the currently
selected Zone. You can set this parameter to any of the 192 Programs (0-191). Note that
the display shows only the Program number but not the name. Pressing both Value buttons
simultaneously will set this parameter to 0 (0 Grand Piano)
Editing this parameter also changes the MIDI Bank and MIDI Program parameters,
described below.

Channel

The Channel parameter determines the MIDI transmit channel for the currently selected
Zone. You can set this parameter to any of the 16 MIDI channels (1-16). Pressing both
Value buttons simultaneously will set this parameter to 1.

Destination

The Destination parameter determines whether MIDI data generated by the currently
selected Zone is sent to the SPS4 sound engine, through the MIDI OUT port, or both. You
can set this parameter to any of the three destinations for this parameter:
8-4
