MIDI OUT C ONNEC TIONS
MIDI O UT C onnections: The MIDI O UT jacks are where you connect your S tudio Logic S L-760
Master C ontroller to your various MIDI sound sources. Using a standard 5 pin DIN MIDI cable,
connect the S tudio Logic MIDI O UT to your MIDI input jack on your synthesizer, sound modu-
le or other MIDI equipped keyboard. Y ou may use the THR U (daisy chain) feature on your MIDI
gear to connect to other MIDI modules if you like. Avoid daisy chaining more than 2 modu-
les, if possible, to reduce the possibility of MIDI log jam or timing delays. The S tudio Logic
S L-760 conveniently is supplied with two parallel (identical) MIDI O UT jacks on the rear panel
to help reduce the possibility of timing delays when connecting to multiple MIDI sound modu-
les. W hen connecting multiple devices to your S L-760 allocate them equally across the two
MIDI O UT connections on this keyboard.

ZONE SELEC T
Located on the top panel there are the (3) ZO NE buttons for the (1) enabling and disabling of
the three keyboard ZO NE S while in play mode and (2) selecting the ZO NE S while in E DIT MO DE .
The LE D indicators will be lit up when its corresponding zone is active or selected for editing.
In PLAY mode any combination of ZO NE S may be on or off at any point in time. However, in
E DIT mode the ZO NE switches may only be used to select one ZO NE at a time. O nly one ZO NE
at a time may be edited and therefore only one ZO NE light may be lit at a time while in E DIT
mode. Y ou are able to jump from ZO NE to ZO NE while in edit mode by depressing the corre-
sponding ZO NE BUTT O NS .
Please note that you may only press a zone button and disable or enable a zone while no notes
are depressed on the keyboard or while the sustain pedal is being depressed.

Depressing the E NTE R / E DIT button enters and exits the E DIT mode. W hile in edit mode a LE D
is lit next to the corresponding FUNC TIO N that is presently selected for editing.
Using the UP/ DO W N buttons will cause the LE D to scroll through the FUNC TIO N selections.
This is the area where you enter desired parameters for selected FUNC TIO NS being edited. The
numerical keypad, (H) and (-), (on) and (off) are assigned to correspond to the keys of the
central octave of the KE YBO AR D.
W hile in E DIT MO DE these keys now function as our data entry method and will not transmit
note information.
In other words, while in E DIT MO DE the entire keyboard is disabled and will not transmit note
information until you exit the E DIT MO DE .
Used to select which MIDI channel each of the (3) ZO NE S will transmit its information on. T o
access this, parameter enter E DIT mode by selecting E NTE R / E DIT .
S elect desired ZO NE for editing by depressing its corresponding ZO NE switch. Use the
UP/ DO W N buttons to select MIDI C HANNE L function. Y ou now enter a one or two digit value
using the 10 key keypad to set the ZO NE 's MIDI transmit channel. E xit the E DIT mode by
depressing the E DIT/ E NTE R button. In exiting the E DIT mode you store the new information
automatically in the S L-760 Master C ontroller's memory and enable the keyboard ZO NE to play
and transmit information on the new selected MIDI channel. In order to play and transmit on
a desired ZO NE , select the corresponding ZO NE switch while in play mode so that its LE D is
lit. The ZO NE switch will toggle to turn ZO NE on and off.
Used to transmit or initiate a BANK C HANG E message on a given zone. After selecting and
assigning the MIDI C HANNE L, press DO W N button to switch to BANK S E LE C T . This mode allows
you to change the sound bank of your synth module or external sound source.
The reception protocol for BANK S E LE C T depends on the type and make of the sound module
you are transmitting to and can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. If the synth module
you are using requires only "C ontrol 32" then you will have to only enter the bank number you
wish to select. If your module requires a more complete protocol (C ontrol 32+ C ontrol 0) then
you need to enter C ontrol 32 and then press the key corresponding to the "H"(represents
Higher part of Bank C hange Byte) symbol (same as minus key). Then enter the desired num-
ber for C ontrol 0. The key sequence would be as follows: enter 32, then the (-) minus key
which also has the (H) symbol labeled above it, then the bank number to change to.
Used to select a P AT C H NUMBE R or PR O G R AM C HANG E for a specific ZO NE . T o access this para-
