Selecting Combinations

There are several different ways to select
Combinations. Each one is convenient in a different
way:
• Using the front-panel buttons, value slider, and
value knob, you can select Combinations quickly
via physical controls
• Selecting by Bank and number (via the touch-
screen) lets you browse through all of the
Combinations in memory, to find the one that you
want
• Selecting by Combination category (via the touch-
screen) lets you filter Combinations by sound type,
such as Pianos or Drums
• Using a foot-switch lets you change Combinations
even while both hands are busy playing on the
keyboard - convenient for live applications
• MIDI program change messages let you select
Combinations remotely, from either -a MIDI
sequencer or an external MIDI controller
