Yamaha PLG150-AN Manual page 7

Troubleshooting: There are no rules, but try
everything, knobs. You must hit the note cleanly
to start the two clocks together (Motif's and
PLG150-AN's). Use the Foot Switch to stop both
arpeggios. Often the AN Step Sequenced sound is
in the LEFT hand split below a certain note. While
any key will start the drums, only keys below a
certain note will start the AN sequence. If you
"miss", hit the FT SW twice and retrigger. Once
locked in time, they remain locked.

The Morph Function – Go to UTILITY/ F6 PLUG
and select the NATIVE X parameters, where X =
the slot number of your PLG150-AN board. Here
you will find specific parameters concerning the
PLG150-AN. Notice you can set up a MORPH
function. This can be a sound to which you can
th
Lead
morph any current AN sound. For example, go to
VOICE mode, select the PLG_USR BANK and
select #033(C01)... use the modulation wheel to
morph the "We All..." Voice into the "...Die" Voice.
Originally, this voice was in the AN1x sound set.
The AN1x had two AN engines so each Voice had
two "Scenes" – you could morph or fade between
the scenes with any assigned controller.
By setting the "Morph Control No." to 001 (Mod
th
comes
Wheel) the Modulation Wheel will morph the
current Voice, as best it can, to the Voice
designated by the "Morph Program No" and
"Morph Bank LSB" number, i.e., Bank 036/002
program #34. In this case it is the "...Die" Voice.
Assign the Morph Control Number to cc022 for
Ribbon control. Enjoy...
