Master Volume Slider
The Master Volume Slider is located on the leftmost side of the front panel. The slider adjusts
the overall volume of the SP2's audio outputs. We recommend that you set this slider all the
way down before you turn on your SP2.
Performance / Effect 1-1
In this region, you can control the volume level of each layer, effect wet / dry mix or send MIDI
control message with the four knobs A‐D. See page 3‐1 for more information.
Performance / Effect 1-2
In this region, you can select effect presets. Also, you can use the auto layer and split feature.
The Global button provides several system parameters that affect the entire system and
initializing function. See page 4‐4 for more information.
Display
Basically, the display tells you what's going on, whether you're playing or editing. The
information varies depending on which mode the SP2 is in. There are two buttons labeled
[+/Yes] and [‐/No] below the display. These buttons have multiple functions. For example, when
playing rhythm patterns, pressing [+/Yes] button means "Play" and pressing [‐/No] button
means "Stop". Or, pressing two buttons at the same time will reset any parameter change made
to Transposition or Tuning to the default setting.
Sound Select / Data Entry Region
The SP2's sounds and effects are organized by type into 8 categories. The buttons in this region
are used as Sound Select buttons. The upper 8 buttons are used to select the desired category of
instruments, rhythm pattern or effects. The lower 8 buttons are used to make selections within
the current category. These buttons also are used to select menus in Global mode. Depending on
which mode the SP2 is in, these buttons can be used to enter numeric values for parameters.
[Enter] and [Cancel] buttons are used for storing setups. Pressing [Dump] and [Reset] button
will start Demo mode. See page 2‐14 discuss for more information.
Edit
In this region, you can change the timbre of the internal sounds and save the modified sounds
easily. See page 4‐2 for more information.
