Selecting The Part That You Want To Sound (Keyboard Switch); Editing The Part Settings - Roland Fantom G8 User Manual

Selecting the Part that You Want to
Sound (Keyboard Switch)
Here's how to select the part that you want to play from the
keyboard. Each part has a setting called the "keyboard switch" that
determines whether that part will sound in response to the
keyboard. If this is turned off for all parts, the current part will
sound.
When you're recording a song, we recommend that you turn
the keyboard switch off for all parts. If this is turned on for any
parts, the keyboard will not play the current part, which would
not be convenient for song production.
1.
Press [STUDIO].
2.
Press [F6 ].
3.
Use [CURSOR] to move the cursor to the "Keyboard Sw"
field, and press [INC] to turn the keyboard switch on.
When you play the keyboard, you'll hear the parts whose
keyboard switch is on. If the keyboard switch is turned off for
all parts, you'll hear the current part.

*1 Parts whose Recording Switch is off will not be recorded to audio tracks of the
sequencer. (Nor will they be sampled.) You can turn this off for a part that you
want to hear, but not record as audio. Normally you will leave this turned on.
Effects will not be applied to a part whose Recording Switch is off.
