What is a Mix?
Mix Mode is one of the most powerful features of the QuadraSynth Plus. While
in Program Mode you can play only one Program at a time, in Mix Mode you can
play up to 16 Programs at once, either from the keyboard (as layers or splits) or
from an external sequencer (via 16 MIDI channels) or a combination of both.
With Mix Mode, you can do the following:
•
simultaneously from the keyboard. For example, stack a piano on top of a brass
patch and a string patch, adjusting the volume of each for a desirable mix. (Note
that the stacking of Programs in Mix Play Mode is in addition to any sounds that
may be stacked in the four sound layers of each Program.)
•
guitar on the left-hand side of the keyboard and synth or piano on the right. You
can split the keyboard into as many as 16 zones.
•
•
channel representing a different instrument--piano on Ch. 1, bass on Ch. 2,
drums on Ch. 10, trumpet on Ch. 16. Mix Play Mode is the multitimbral mode of
the QuadraSynth Plus.

Mix Edit Mode
