Your First Session With The QuadraSynth Plus: Chapter 2
Press the [PROGRAM] button to select Program Play Mode.
¿
You can now play the QuadraSynth Plus keyboard; the Program will be
whatever was selected when last in Program mode (Program number 00 —
127).
¡ Select a Program using any of these methods:
• Use the [-1] and [+1] buttons to step through the Programs one
at a time.
• Use the [-10] and [+10] buttons to step through the Programs ten
at a time.
• Hold the [PROGRAM] button and rotate Quad Knob [1].
• Use the DIRECT SELECT [1]—[0] buttons for direct entry.
Leading zeroes must be entered for Programs 0 — 19. Example: Press [0] then
[0] then [5] for Program 5; press [0] then [1] then [3] for Program 13. Only
begin with [1] if you are selecting a Program from 100 — 127. If you start
entering a number and change your mind, wait a few seconds and the
QuadraSynth Plus will revert to the previous Program number.

To hear the Stereo Grand Piano, select Program 00 in Preset Bank 1.
The QuadraSynth Plus provides five internal Banks containing 128
Programs in each (and 100 Mixes each, but we'll get to Mixes in a
moment). The currently selected Bank will be shown in the display just
to the left of the currently selected Program's name.
• Use the BANK [ ] and [ ] buttons to select a Bank (User, Preset
1 – 4).

User and Preset Banks are described in detail in Chapter 4.
While in Program Play Mode, the QuadraSynth Plus can transmit and
receive information on any single MIDI channel of the 16 available
channels. The currently selected channel appears at the top left of the
display.
