Performance Button Assign (Solo Portamento, Panel Lock) - Kawai CP 209 Owner's Manual

PERFORMANCE BUTTON ASSIGN (Solo Portamento, Panel Lock)

You can assign Solo Portamento or Panel Lock to the PERFORMANCE button.
Portamento for the Solo Part
The Solo Part is monophonic (only plays one note at a time) regardless of which sound is assigned to it. You can use
Portamento on this Part. Portamento is a gradual slide in pitch from one note to the next, and is useful for adding very
expressive qualities to many instruments. You can adjust the Portamento Time, which determines how quickly the pitch
will slide from one note to the next.
Panel Lock
Locks all buttons on the panel to prevent them from being tampered with or pressed accidentally while you are playing.
When the Performance Button is turned On the panel buttons will be locked. Turn the Performance button Off to unlock
the panel buttons.
To assign Solo Portamento or Panel Lock:
Step 1
Press and hold the PERFORMANCE button.
The Performance screen will be displayed.
Step 2
Touch PERFORMANCE BUTTON ASSIGN and use the dial to assign a function.
Step 3
Press the PERFORMANCE button to exit.
Step 4
Press the PERFORMANCE button.
The LED will light and the function assigned to the button will be activated. If Portamento is assigned the word
"BUTTON" will be displayed in the upper left on the main screen to indicate that Portamento is active. If Panel
Lock is assigned, the words "PANEL LOCKED !" will appear at the top of the screen, and the CP will not respond
to button pushes until the panel is unlocked.
Step 5
Press the PERFORMANCE button.
The LED will turn off and the function will be deactivated. The word "BUTTON" will disappear from the main screen
and the Portamento or Panel Lock function will be deactivated.
Step 6
When Solo Portamento is selected, you can adjust the Portamento time on the edit menu.
Touch the EDIT button to go to the Edit menu.
If the LEFT and CENTER PEDAL OVERRIDE and PERFORMANCE BUTTON ASSIGN are all set to None, the LED will
not light when you press the PERFORMANCE button.
