Auditioning Mix Mode - Alesis QuadraSynth Reference Manual

Auditioning Mix Mode

Mix Mode allows you to assign a Program to each of the 16 MIDI channels. This
makes it easy to create multitimbral setups for use with an external MIDI sequencer.
Additionally, a MIX can be used to ÒlayerÓ sounds together, or ÒsplitÓ the keyboard
in a number of ways, or any combination of these. There are many different ways to
program a Mix. For more about Mix Mode, refer to Chapter 5. For more about
connecting the QuadraSynth to a MIDI sequencer, see Chapter 3.
Press the [MIX] button.
The display will change to Mix Mode.
Select a Mix from 00Ñ99 using one of these three methods:
¥ Rotate Quad Knob [1] .
Press the VALUE [ ¯] or [-] button.
¥
This assumes that Quad Knob [1] is active, as shown by a heavy underline beneath
the NUMBER indicator. If the underline does not appear, press Quad Button [1]
before using the VALUE buttons.
¥ Use the MIX/PROGRAM SELECT [1]Ñ[0] buttons for direct entry.
Leading zeroes must be entered for Mixes 0 Ñ 9. Example: Press [0] then [5] for
Mix 5. If you start entering a number and change your mind, wait a few seconds and
the QuadraSynth will revert to the previous Mix number.
You can switch between User and Preset Mixes with Quad Knob [3].
By either pressing Quad Button [3] and then pressing VALUE [ -], or by turning
Quad Knob [3] all the way to the right, the top line of the display will change to read
ÒMIX TYPE: P RESETÓ
After switching between the Preset and User banks, press Quad Button [1] to see the name of
the Mix in the display again.
User memory and Preset memory are described in detail in Chapter 4.
