Quick Layer/Split - Korg NAUTILUS 61 AT Operation Manual

Quick Layer/Split

The Quick Layer/Split feature makes it easy to create simple
layers and splits. Starting with either a Program or
Combination, you can add another Program as a layer, or
split the keyboard so that the current sound plays on one side
of the keyboard (either upper or lower), and a different
Program plays on the other.
All of the Quick Layer/Split controls are non-destructive and
reflected immediately when playing on the keyboard. You
can experiment with different settings, and fine-tune until
you find the perfect sound.
While you can start with either a Program or a Combination,
the additional split or layer sound must always be a Program,
and the results of Quick Layer/Split are always saved as a
new Combination. After saving, you can then edit the new
Combination as desired.
Quick Layer
A "layer" is when playing a single note causes two or more
sounds to be heard simultaneously. The Quick Layer
function lets you layer two Programs, or one Combination
and one Program.
For example, you could layer piano with strings, using two
Programs:
Main: Piano program
Layer: Strings program
Quick Layer :
Layer two programs, or a combination and a program.
Example: two programs
[Layer Program] Strings
[Main Program] Piano
Example: a combination and a program
[Layer Program] Strings
[Main Combination] Piano
Or, you could add strings to a Combination which is itself a
layer:
Main: Piano Combination (Piano + E.Piano layer)
Layer: Strings Program
Quick Layer/Split Quick edits using the RT control knobs
Quick Split
Split lets you play different sounds in different regions of the
keyboard. The Quick Split function lets you split two
Programs, or one Combination and one Program.
For example, you can do this:
Main: piano Program (right hand)
Split: bass Program (left hand)
or this:
Main: piano Combination (Piano + E.Piano layer) (left
hand)
Split: lead synth Program (right hand)
Quick Split :
Split two programs, or a combination and a program,
to left and right.
Example: two programs
[Split Program] Strings
Example: a combination and a program
[Main Combination ] Piano
Limitations of the Quick Layer/Split function
Note: You may not be able to copy the settings due to
limitations on the number of timbres and effects, which may
create difference in the sounds. Also, the settings of either
ARP/DRUM can be copied, but not both.
