Combination mode
Program Select
[A...F: 000...127, GM, g(1)...g(9), g(d): 001...128]
Here, you can select the program used by each timbre. The
lower line displays part of the program name.
To switch the program of a timbre
• Choose Program Select, use numeric keys 0–9 to input the
program number, and press the ENTER button.
• Choose Program Select and turn the VALUE dial or use
the INC/DEC buttons.
• If the Program Select parameter is chosen, the BANK A–F
buttons will switch program banks. (If Timbre Program
Select is selected, the BANK button LED of the program
bank selected for that timbre will light up.)
You can use the numeric keys to switch the GM bank (see
p.2).
• From the Bank/Program Select menu you can view and
select programs arranged by bank.
• From the Category/Program Select menu you can view
and select programs by category.
• You can choose a program by transmitting MIDI program
changes from a connected external MIDI device.
The KROME's combinations and timbre programs can
be switched from an external MIDI device by using
MIDI bank select and MIDI program change messages.
By default, the combination bank and number will
change when a bank select or program change message
that matches the KROME's global MIDI channel is
received. (Global MIDI channel; see p.198 Global 1‐1a
"MIDI Channel (Global MIDI Channel)")
However, if the channel of the incoming message is
different than the KROME's global MIDI channel, the
program bank and number will change only for timbres
that match the MIDI channel of the message.
Tip: Even for the global MIDI channel, you can change the
setting from the default so that the timbre program
rather than the combination will be switched. (see
p.201 Global 1‐2b MIDI Filter "Combination Change")
Tip: Switching the timbre program in response to MIDI
reception can be disabled for specific timbres. (see p.87
MIDI Filter 5‐1c/5‐2c "Enable Program Change")
When you switch combinations by operating the
KROME, the bank and number of the combination you
select are transmitted as bank select and program
change messages on the global MIDI channel.
At this time, if any of the timbres have the timbre status
EXT or EX2, the bank and number of their timbre
programs will be transmitted as bank select and program
change messages on the timbre channel. (Timbre Status;
see p.81 Timbre Param 3‐1c/3‐2c "Status")
Bank/Timbre Program Select menu:
• Press the popup button located at the left of Program
Select, and choose a program from the Bank/Program
Select menu.
For the procedure, please see "Bank/Program Select menu:"
on page 2.
Play/Mute
This setting mutes a timbre.
Play: The timbre will produce sound.
Mute: The timbre will be muted (silent).
Solo On/Off
Turns the Solo function on/off for each timbre.
The Solo function operates differently depending on the
setting of the Exclusive Solo menu command.
72
If Exclusive Solo is off, you can turn Solo on for more than
one timbre. The setting will alternate each time you press
the Solo On/Off button.
If Exclusive Solo is on, pressing a Solo button will turn Solo
on for only that timbre.
Note: The Solo On/Off status is not preserved when you
write the combination.
Exclusive Solo
The menu's Exclusive Solo parameter also affects the way
that Solo works. When Exclusive Solo is Off (unchecked),
you can solo multiple Timbres at once.
When Exclusive Solo is On (checked), only one Timbre can
be soloed at a time. In this mode, pressing a Solo button
automatically disables any previous solos.
Tip: You can also toggle Exclusive Solo by holding ENTER
and pressing 1 on the numeric keypad.
Velocity Meter
This meter shows the note‐on velocity value.
• This indicates the note‐on velocity values on the MIDI
channel of each timbre, produced by the keyboard, MIDI
IN, arpeggiator, or drum track. (If multiple note‐on
messages are received simultaneously, the highest
velocity will be displayed.)
• The meter will respond even if Key Zone or Vel Zone
settings are set so that the note does not actually sound.
• This meter indicates the note‐on velocity value; it does not
respond to changes in the Volume knob setting, nor to
changes in the level of the audio signal produced by the
Filter, Amp, EG, LFO, EQ, or effects.
