parameter, and turn the Alpha Wheel one click to the right, to select the sample 20 12in Dry
Tom C 4. Save the keymap, replacing the earlier version. You can repeat this process to create as
many new key ranges as you like (in this example, doing so would have no effect, since we've
limited each layer to a narrow 3-key span).
If you wanted the layers to overlap, you would simply set each layer's LoKey and HiKey
parameters (on the LAYER page in the Program Editor) to the same respective values. For
example, you might set each LoKey parameter to C 2, and each HiKey parameter to C 7,
causing all layers to play across five octaves.
Now we'll add some processing to some of the layers in our drum program example. The fact
that each sound is on a different layer enables us to use a different algorithm for each layer,
giving us enormous control over each sound.
Return to the Program Editor and select Layer 1. Press the PITCH soft button, and select the
Coarse transpose parameter. Set its value to -3 ST. Select the KeyTrk parameter, and set its value
to 400 cents per key. This will give you a different pitch on each key.
Next, select the PITCH page and select the Src2 parameter. Set its value to ENV2 (1, 2, 1,
ENTER). Select the MaxDpt parameter and set its value to 300 cents. Select the DptCtl
parameter, and set its value to VTRIG1 (1, 0, 6, ENTER). Press EDIT to select the VTRIG page,
and set the VTrig1 Level parameter to a value of fff. Return to the PITCH page, select the Src2
parameter, and press EDIT to select the ENV2 page. Set it up as shown in the page below.

Next, select Layer 2 and select the F4 AMP page. Set the Adjust parameter to 8 dB to give the
kick a little more presence. Select the Src1 parameter and set it to a value of AttVel (1, 0, 0,
ENTER). Select the Depth parameter and set a value of 10 dB. The kick will get considerably
louder as you strike the keys harder.
Select Layer 3, and press the ALG soft button. Select the center, 3-stage DSP function block and
assign a value of HIFREQ STIMULATOR. Press the more> soft button once, then press the F1
FRQ soft button. Select the Coarse Adjust parameter, and assign a value of G 10 25088 Hz.
Select the Src1 parameter and assign a value of MWheel. Select the Depth parameter and set it
to a value of -10800 cents. Move your MIDI controller's Mod Wheel to bring out the snare's
high end.
