P
ITCH
The Pitch function (press [70]) lets you transpose a channel's Program in either
semitone or octave increments.
Tune Octave (-2 to +2 octaves)
This transposes the Program's pitch in octave (12 semitones) steps from -2
(transposed down 2 octaves) to +2 (transposed up two octaves).
Semitone (-12 to +12 semitones)
This transposes the Program's pitch in semitone steps, from -12 (transposed down
one octave) to +12 (transposed up one octave).
E
FFECT
The Effect function (press [80]) is where you select what Effect Patch will be used by
the Mix. In Mix Mode, you can have only one Effect Patch per Mix, which will be the
Effects Patch associated with one of the Programs used in the Mix.
FX Program Change (On or Off)
This determines whether the Effects settings will change along with its Program, if a
MIDI program change is received on the Effect Channel (see next section). If ON,
and a MIDI program change is received, a new Program will be recalled along with its
associated Effect Patch. This, however, can change the way the other Programs in
the Mix sound, since they all share the same Effects Patch. If you want to recall
Programs via MIDI program changes, but also want to continue using the same
Effects Patch, leave this parameter turned OFF.
FX MIDI Channel (1 to 16)
The Effect Channel determines which channel's Program's Effect Patch will be used
for the entire Mix. In other words, when the Effect Channel is set to 3, the Mix will use
the Effect Patch used by the Program assigned to channel 3.
K /MIDI
EYBOARD
The Keyboard/MIDI Function (press [90]) allows you to turn on and off the MIDI and
Keyboard switches for the selected MIDI channel.
MIDI In (On or Off)
This determines whether the selected channel will respond to MIDI messages.
MIDI Out (On or Off)
This determines whether or not the selected channel will transmit MIDI messages.
Keyboard (On or Off)
This determines whether or not the selected channel will respond to the keyboard,
pitch-bend and mod wheels, foot pedals and sustain pedal of the QS6 itself.
