Track settings
Since we're going to record a new song in this example,
we will start by explaining how to assign a program to
each track, and adjust basic settings such as volume.
1. Assign a program to each track.
Use "Program Select" to assign a program to each
track. The method is the same as when assigning a
program to a timbre in a combination (see page 46).
You can copy various settings from Programs or
Combinations. (See pages 166, 167 of the Parameter
Guide.)
2. When assigning a program, you can use Track
Select to choose the track to which you wish to
assign a program, and audition the sound.
3. Set the pan and volume of each track.
Press the Mixer 1–8 tab (or the Mixer 9–16 tab) to access
the Mixer T01–08 page (Mixer T09–16 page).
• Pan sets the pan position of each track, and Volume
sets the volume level of each track.
4. Specify the tone generator and MIDI channel that
will be played by each track.
Press the PAGE button to access SEQ Page Select, and
press "P3 Track Parameters" The P3: Track Parameters
page will appear. Press the MIDI 1–8 tab (or the MIDI
9–16 tab) to access the MIDI T01–08 page (MIDI T09–16
page).
• Use Status to specify whether each track will play
the internal and/or external sound generator.
Normally when using the KROME, you will select INT
or BTH.
INT: During playback, the KROME's internal tone
generator will play the MIDI data recorded on that
track. When you use the KROME's keyboard or
