Introduction - bit MIDI MASTER KEYBOARD Owner's Manual

Congratulations on your ne• BIT NASTER KEYBDARD! Your choice of this
fine instru•ent clearly shows that you have read the Nriting on the
"all (spelling •NIDI•>, and that you have a fair idea of state-of-the-
art •usical instru•ents and their i•plications/applications. All the
sa•e, we strongly advise-you to read this Users Nanual carefully so
that you can take full advantage of the advanced features the
BIT
nASTER KEYBOARD hag to offer.
Any instru•ent equipped Nith as •any features as the BIT NASTER
KEYBDARD, and dealing with a subject as co•pleK as NID] aight create a
bit of initial confusion for the
new
user.
To
help avoid this, the
•anual introduces each feature in turn
and
allows •hands
on•
learning.
If you work through the instructions step-by-step,
you
should have a
pretty good grasp of how things work by the ti•e you reach the last
page.
Along the way we'll
be
pointing out so•e potential problea areas
concerning 'slaves' or the NASTER KEYBOARD itself and -
of
course
providing hints on hoN to circuavent the•. In fact, quite a bit of
nIDI
proble• solving is built right into the instruaent's hard and
softNare. Whenever the
BIT NASTER KEYBOARD
recognizes a proble•, the
display will show you an error code.
(A
co•plete listing of these
codes
Î9
included in
an
Appendix at
the
back of this •anual).
For the sake of clarity, we won't elaborate on NJDI ter•inology in the
•ain text, so if you're unfa•ili&r with such esoteric goodies as •ALL
ONNI
Off•
and other NIDI co•••nds, you •ight find it hRlpful to
consult a general teKt on "IDI, or at least broNse through the
glossary to catch up with soae of the jargon.
Ne took great care in writing thi• here •anual (instead of lying on
the beach and watching the
- er - waves,
which we •ould have
preferred). If anything has sneaked in that leaves you absolutely
confused,
we'd
like to knoN about it, so we can correct it in future
versions and updates! lf you have any suggestions for i•prove•ents,
additions, deletions, fancy applications or weirdly-wonderful uses of
this instru•ent that even we didn't think of, don't hesitate to drop
us a line and tell us all about it. (Please!) Other users •ight just
love you for il!
Have you filled out your warranty registration card yet? If not, you
should do so, have your dealer sta•p it and •ail it presto.·
