Selecting Sounds; Moving Between Families - GEM GPS3600 Owner's Manual

Selecting Sounds

Individual Sounds are recalled using the buttons
of the SOUND GROUPS section. The sounds
recalled are assigned to the selected track of the
current Preset. A selected track is shown high-
lighted on the display.
1. Press one of the SOUND GROUPS buttons to
open a «Sound Group» selection window
showing 8 Sounds to choose from.
2. Scroll through the Banks with the +/– Page/
Bank buttons [
The current Bank number is shown in the top
right hand corner of the selection window.
As you scroll through the Banks, you'll see
that most of them will contain only one or two
Sounds to choose from, others will be empty.
Empty locations are shown by a string of
dashes (------). These locations represent the
locations where you can store your edited
sounds or disk-based sounds.
3. Select a Sound with the corresponding Soft
button.

If the Display Hold (D.HOLD) function is on
(LED on), the SOUND GROUPS selection
window will remain active, allowing you to
select another sound either from the same
Group, or from another Group. To do this,
simply select a different SOUND GROUP
button to open the corresponding selection
window.
To see your selection, press ESCAPE to close
the current selection window and return to
the Preset display without turning D. HOLD
off.
If D. HOLD is off (LED off), every time you
select a Sound from the SOUND GROUP
selection, the display will return to the Preset
display.
Another way of selecting Sounds is by recalling
Presets (Global or Style Presets). Presets offer
the possibility of selecting Sound combinations
which you can program as preferred. Refer to
the next chapter, Presets, for all relevant infor-
mation.

MOVING BETWEEN FAMILIES

Sometimes you might want to jump directly from
one sound family to another when looking for a
particular sound. This is best done with DIS-
PLAY HOLD on (LED on).
Pressing any SOUND GROUP button will open
the corresponding SOUND GROUP window,
showing the same Bank as the previous selec-
tion.
The current family is shown at the top of the top
of the display and you can select any other fam-
ily by pressing the SOUND GROUP buttons ac-
cordingly.
