How are these controls set up? ThatÕs back on the KDFX page in the Setup Editor. Exit the Studio
Editor (if you have made any changes, donÕt save themÑthat will only confuse things!), then
press the KDFX soft button. Take a look at the settings for the Þrst FXMod:
EditSetup:KDFX||||||||||||||||All|Zones||
Studio:202*Complex||||||||||
Bus:|Param:|||||Adjust:||Source:||Depth:
FX1||In/Out|||||Out||||||SoftPd|||1
FX1||Aux|Lvl||||-50.0dB||MIDI27|||52dB
FX2||L|Fdbk|Lvl|0%|||||||MIDI26|||120%
<more||KDFX|||FXMOD2|FXMOD3|FXMOD4|more>
The Þrst FXMod affects the signal on the FX 1 bus, as shown by the Bus parameter. The Param
parameter indicates which parameter is affected on the FX1 busÑin this case, the In/Out
parameter. The Adjust parameter deÞnes the initial condition of the parameter controlled on this
busÑin this case, the In/Out parameter has an initial value of Out (disengaged).
The Source parameter determines what MIDI Controller affects the In/Out parameter. For the
Þrst FXMod itÕs SoftPd (thatÕs MIDI 67, which is Soft Pedal according to the MIDI speciÞcation,
and which the K2600 uses as the default destination for Switch Pedal 3). While this setup is
current, any K2600 controllerÑbe it a wheel, slider, ribbon, or buttonÑthatÕs programmed to
send MIDI 67 will affect the In/Out parameter on the FX1 bus of this studio.
The Depth parameter deÞnes how much the soft pedal affects the In/Out value, and here it is 1.
For parameters with binary value, likes In/Out or On/Off, the Depth parameter can have only
three values: 1, 0, or -1. If it is set to 1 or -1, then changing the state of the Source (in this case,
depressing the soft pedal), changes the parameterÕs stateÑin this case, going from Out to In. (If
itÕs set to 0, then the Source has no effect on the value of the parameter.)
Now look at the second FXMod. It sets the Aux Lvl on the FX1 bus to an initial value -50 dB. The
Source, MIDI 27, can raise that level by as much as 52 dB, to put it at +2 dBÑand in fact, thatÕs
what youÕre hearing as you move Slider F, which defaults to MIDI 27.
LetÕs go back into the Studio Editor and look at FXBus 2. HereÕs our piano and string pad, going
through an FX preset called 206*Fast&RichChorus.

The two bus overrides are L Fdbk Level (Left Feedback Level) and R Fdbk Level, and they are
both under FXMod control. The Aux Lvl, as on FXBus1, is also under FXMod control. Press Edit
