Frequently Asked Questions
How can I quickly see which programs are
in which setup Parts?
Hold down [setups] and press keys, starting with the A above
middle C (labeled "voice"). Pressing the A key will show you Part
A, the B key will show Part B, and so on. To browse through
Beats, go an octave higher. The highest A will show Beat A, and
so on.

How do I add a rhythm to my setup?

The same way you add a program or pattern. But since you will
often only have a single Beat in a setup, the quickest way to add it
or change it is to press [rhythms], find the rhythm you want, and
then simply hold [rhythms] and press [setups] to send it over.
How do I assign different programs to
different MIDI channels, so I can play
multiple programs at once from my PC's
sequencer?
You need to create a setup. Follow this procedure:
1. Press [programs], and find a program you like.
2. Push the control knob, turn to "Start new setup?" and push
again.
3. Press [programs], and find another program that you like.
4. Push the control knob, turn to "Send to setup?" and push again.
5. Turn to "Add part B?" and push again.
6. Continue to add parts until the setup contains all of the
programs you want.
You can now play these programs from your sequencer. By
default, Part A is on channel 1, Part B is on channel 2, and so on.
