Playing and editing Combinations
Velocity Zone Slope
Similar to Key Zone Slopes, as described above, these let
you fade in and fade out sounds gradually over a velocity
range, instead of a simple hard switch.
In the case of the above example, you could set the velocity
zones of the two Timbres so that they partially overlap.
Then, set the Top Slope and Bottom Slope so that the sound
changes gradually, instead of changing suddenly between
velocity values of 63 and 64.
MIDI Settings
Timbre Parameters MIDI page
Status
This controls the status of MIDI and the internal tone
generator for each Timbre. Normally, if you're playing an
internal Program, this should be set to INT.
If the status is set to Off, EXT, or EX2, that internal sounds
will not be played. Off simply disables the Timbre entirely.
The EXT and EX2 settings allow the Timbre to control an
external MIDI device. For more information, see "Status" on
page 405 of the PG.
Bank Select (when status=EX2)
When the Status is set to EX2, these parameters allow you
to transmit MIDI Bank Select messages for changing banks
on external MIDI devices.
MIDI Channel
Timbres that you wish to play from NAUTILUS's keyboard
must be set to the global MIDI channel. Your playing on the
keyboard is transmitted on the global MIDI channel, and will
sound any timbre that matches this channel. Normally you
will set this to Gch. When this is set to Gch, the MIDI
channel of the timbre will always match the global MIDI
channel, even if you change the global MIDI channel.

MIDI filter settings
For each MIDI Filter item, you can specify whether or not
the corresponding MIDI message will be transmitted and
received. The checked items will be transmitted and
received.
The MIDI filters don't turn the functions themselves on or
off. Instead, the filter just controls whether or not that MIDI
message will be transmitted and received.
For example, if portamento is on, portamento will be applied
to the internal NAUTILUS sound even if Portamento SW
CC#65 is unchecked.
As another example, let's say that you've selected a bass
Program for Timbre 1, and a piano Program for Timbre 2,
with the goal of creating a bass/piano split. You could make
the following settings so that pressing the damper pedal
affects only Timbre 2's piano sound:
1. Go to the MIDI Filter/Zones– MIDI Filter 1 page.
2. Un-check the Enable Damper box for Timbre 1.
3. Check the Enable Damper box for Timbre 2.
