Clock Source; Aux Fx Channel; Kb3 Channel - Kurzweil PC3LE Musician's Manual

Setup Mode
The Setup Editor

Clock Source

With the Clock Source parameter, you can set the PC3LE—within the current setup—to generate
its own tempo by setting Clock Source to Internal, or you can set the PC3LE to sync up with the
tempo from another device—assuming the device is sending MIDI clock data to the PC3LE via
MIDI or USB—by setting Clock Source to External. When Clock Source is set to External, the
Tempo parameter disappears from the display.
Arpeggiator Global (ArpGlobal)
With the ArpGlobal parameter, you can set the Arpeggiator of a single Zone to play notes on all
Zones in the Setup. For example, if ArpGlobal is set to Arp 3, all zones will be played by the
arpeggiator in in Zone 3 (if the arpeggiator in Zone 3 is active.) In addition to OFF, there are as
many ArpGlobal settings as there are Zones in the current setup. For example, in a seven‐zone
setup, you can select a value of OFF, or Arp 1–7 for ArpGlobal.
To exclude a Zone from being played by the global arpeggiator, set the Arpeggiator parameter to
Off on the CH/PROG page for that Zone (see Arpeggiator on page 7‐9 for details.)
For details on the arpeggiator for each Zone, see The ARPEGGIATOR & ARPEGGIATOR 2
(ARP1, ARP2) Pages on page 7‐35.

Aux FX Channel

The Aux FX Channel determines the FX channel through which the aux sends of all of the zones
in the current setup are sent. For example, if a zone 2 in a setup has a program with 25 Basic
Delay 1/8 as an Aux FX, and zone 2 is assigned to channel 5, then setting the Aux FX Channel to
5 sends the programs of all of the zones in the setup through zone 2's Program's Aux FX (i.e.,
through 25 Basic Delay 1/8).

KB3 Channel

With this parameter, you can specify the KB3 channel in the current setup (because KB3
programs can play on only one channel/zone at a time, See page 6‐5 for more information on
KB3 mode.)
TRIGGER KEYS (KEYTRG)
The TRIGGER KEYS page (see below) allows you to set a controller destination to be triggered
by playing a specific key.
In addition to generating a standard MIDI note on message, each key of the PC3LE can be set to
trigger a controller destination. TRIGGER KEYS can be set independently per Zone. By using
Zones with overlapping key ranges, a single key can trigger multiple controller destinations. On
the TRIGGER KEYS page, select the Key field and choose a note by holding the Enter button
and playing the desired key (you can also use the Alpha Wheel, ‐/+ buttons or alphanumeric pad
