SW1/2 Assignments

Switch assignments are saved separately with each
Program, Combination, and Song. In Sampling mode,
assignments apply to the entire mode. For more

List of SW 1/2 assignments
The following functions can be assigned to SW1 and
SW2.
Off
This setting disables the switch.
SW1 Mod. (CC#80) and SW2 Mod. (CC#81)
This lets you use the switch as an AMS or Dmod
source. Note that you'll also need to assign SW1 Mod
or SW2 Mod to control the desired parameter within
the Program or Effect.
Each time the switch is turned on or off, it transmits
the corresponding MIDI CC (80 or 81); Off is 0, and On
is 127.
Portamento SW (CC#65)
This turns Portamento on and off. When the LED is lit,
Portamento is on.
Each time the switch is turned on or off, it transmits
MIDI CC#65; Off is 0, and On is 127.
With single Programs, this simply enables and disables
Portamento, regardless of the of the Program's stored
Portamento Enable setting.
With double HD-1 or EXi Programs, it's slightly more
complex. If Portamento is either enabled for both OSC
1 and 2 (or EXi 1 and 2), or off for both, then the
Portamento Switch controls both OSC or EXi.
If Portamento is enabled for only one of the two, only
that element will be affected by the switch; for the
other element, Portamento will always be off.
Octave Down
When the switch is on (LED lit), the pitch will be
transposed down by one octave.
Octave Up
When the switch is on (LED lit), the pitch will be
transposed up by one octave.

Lock functions
The Lock functions let you use SW1 or SW2 to "lock"
the current position of the joystick or ribbon controller,
or the current aftertouch value. This leaves your hands
free to play on the keyboard, or to use other
controllers.
For instance, let's say that JS+Y is assigned to create a
filter sweep, and that SW2 is assigned to JS+Y Lock.
You can then:
1. Move the joystick to open up the filter.
2. Press SW2 to turn on JS+Y Lock.
3. Release the joystick.
Since SW2 is locking JS+Y, the filter remains open, even
though the joystick has physically snapped back to its
center position.
Note that Lock affects only the physical controls. Even
if Lock is On, incoming MIDI messages can still change
the joystick, ribbon, and aftertouch values.
For more information, see "Using the Lock function"
on page 46 of the Operation Guide.
JS X Lock
Locks the effect of the joystick X axis.
JS Y Lock
Locks the effect of the joystick Y axis (both + and –
directions).
JS+Y Lock
Locks the effect of the joystick +Y direction.
JS–Y Lock
Locks the effect of the joystick –Y direction.
Ribbon Lock
Locks the effect of the ribbon controller.
JS X & Ribbon Lock
Simultaneously locks the effects of the joystick X
direction and the ribbon controller.
JS Y & Ribbon Lock
Simultaneously locks the effects of the joystick Y
direction and the ribbon controller.
JS+Y & Ribbon Lock
Simultaneously locks the effects of the joystick +Y
direction and the ribbon controller.
JS–Y & Ribbon Lock
Simultaneously locks the effects of the joystick –Y
direction and the ribbon controller.
After Touch Lock
Locks the effect of after touch.
