  • Page 14: Layer Button

    Layer Button 1. Mixing Two Voices Layering is an easy way to make fatter sounds by mixing an additional sound to the current one. With the layering function, your MARK PRO ONE i can sound like a huge ensemble as played by multiple performers.

  • Page 15: Function Button

    Function Button 1. Touch You can adjust how sensitively the keyboard responses to your playing - how the dynamics of the sounds respond to key velocity. By default, a value of Linear is the standard, unaltered level of keyboard sensitivity. Values of Light1 - Light3 are for players who prefer a light touch. You can play more lightly and still get the same attack-velocity values with these settings.
  • Page 16: Transpose

    3. Transpose Transpose allows you to play the keyboard in one key and have the notes sound in another key. This is useful when accompanying singing, if the key of the written music is too high or too low for the singer, or when playing music written for a transposing instrument, such as a clarinet.
  • Page 17: Local Control

    4. Local Control Local Control is the connection between the keyboard of the MARK PRO ONE i and the internal sound producing circuitry of the instrument. Normally, Local Control is ON; in fact, every time you power-up the MARK PRO ONE i, it automatically sets to Local Control ON, so you can play the keyboard and hear the sounds of the instrument.

  • Page 21: Midi

    MIDI MIDI (Musical Interface Digital Interface) is an industry-standard protocol for electronic musical instruments to communicate with each other. MIDI data does not contain any audio signal. It carries digital “performance data” such as the pitch, note velocity, control signals, etc. For more information about your MARK PRO ONE i’s MIDI features, see the MIDI Implementation chart on page 25.
  • Page 22: Midi Channels

    You can also use the MARK PRO ONE i’s MIDI feature to record and play your music with computer based sequencer programs. When you record your performance into the memory of the MARK PRO ONE i , you are actually recording MIDI data, which does not contain any audio signal but the digitized “performance data”.
  • Page 23: Miscellaneous

    Miscellaneous 1. HEADPHONES A headphone jack allows private practice. Plugging in a pair headphones turns off the speakers. You can also insert a "dummy" stereo headphone adapter. This is useful if you want to mute the internal speaker system while using a more powerful external amplification system connected to Audio out jack.
  • Page 24: Tutorial

    Tutorial 1. Using Layers The most often used layering techniques are mixing two sounds (Piano with Strings or Pads) each with fast attack and slow attack for richer and punchier sounds, or layering a few similar sounding programs (Brasses, Strings, Analog Synths, etc.) to fatten the sounds. Follow the tutorial below a couple of times and you will get the idea quickly and realize how useful this feature will be.
