Playing and editing Programs
Each Program, Combination, and Song stores its own
settings for what the switches will do, and whether each
switch is on or off (based on their current states when the
Program, Combination, or Song is saved). You can also
make settings for Sampling mode as a whole.
In Program mode, you can check the assignments of SW1
and SW2 on the Play page Assignment tab.
In all modes, you can edit the assignments for SW1/2 on the
Set Up Controllers page.
Programs (HD-1 and EXi)
Combinations and Songs
Sampling mode
When using SW1/2 for AMS or Dmod, the default settings
are SW1 Mod.:CC#80 and SW2 Mod.:CC#81.
For an example, see "Using Dmod to change the feedback
level via SW1" on page 221. For a complete list of the
possible assignments, see "SW1/2 Assignments" on
page 1109 of the Parameter Guide.
Note: If you wish to keep these settings after the power is
turned off, you must save the Program, Combination, or
Song. Settings for Sampling mode cannot be saved.
An example of settings in a Program
Using the Lock function
Locking the Joystick
1. Using the factory sounds, select Program USER-
C044: Real Suit E.Piano, and play the keyboard.
2. Move the joystick away from yourself (the +Y
direction).
The vibrato effect will deepen.
3. While holding the joystick away from yourself, press
the SW2 switch.
When you press the switch, its LED will light up, and the
modulation effect at this point will be maintained.
36
P1: Basic/Vector
P1: EQ/Vector/Controller
P4: EQ/Controller
4. Release the joystick, and play the keyboard.
The modulation will stay the same as it was when SW2
was pressed. Moving the joystick away from yourself
will not affect the sound.
5. Press the SW2 key once again to release the Lock
function.
Locking the Ribbon Controller
1. Select Program USER-C044: Real Suit E.Piano.
2. Press the SW2 key.
The LED on SW2 will light up.
3. Touch the ribbon controller, and move your finger left
and right.
Movement in the +X direction will brighten the tone, and
movement in the –X direction will darken the tone.
4. Lift your finger up from the ribbon controller.
The sound will remain as it was when you last touched
the ribbon.
5. Press the SW2 key once again to release the Lock
function.
6. Press the tab labeled Cntrl/View Effect, to go to the
Controller/View Effect page.
In the upper right-hand portion of the screen, notice that
SW2 is assigned to JS Y & Ribbon Lock, and is set to
Toggle. This means that SW2 is assigned to control the Lock
function for both the joystick's Y axis and the ribbon
controller. Many Programs and Combinations use this
assignment.
You can also lock both the ribbon and the joystick at the
same time:
1. Move the joystick in the +Y direction
2. Press the SW2 key to turn on the Lock function.
3. Move your finger on the ribbon controller.
4. Release the joystick, and lift your finger up from the
ribbon.
The effects of both the ribbon and the joystick will be
maintained until you press SW2 again to release the lock.
Lock can also be applied to aftertouch, by assigning SW1 or
SW2 to After Touch Lock.
For details on the functions that you can assign to SW1 and
SW2, please see the "SW1/2 Assignments," on page 1109 of
the Parameter Guide.
You can also map incoming MIDI CCs to any of the lock
functions; see "2–3: Function Assign" on page 784 of the
Parameter Guide.
