REALTIME CONTROL MODULE

FOOTSWITCH 3 - Function: RELEASE

1. For footswitch-controlled release, select the desired footswitch (as per GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS 6) then key in 3. Any note played while the footswitch is pressed will
play through its entire length, whether or not you continue to hold down a key. Looped
sections are not repeated unless you hold down the key. Releasing the footswitch
cancels release.
Application: If you have a Voice with a short release but where there are sounds after
the end of the loop, playing the sound normally will play through to the end of the loop
and you will not hear the sounds that occur after the loop. However, if you press down
on the release footswitch during the loop and remove your finger from the key, the Voice
will play through to the end -- including the "after-loop" sounds.

FOOTSWITCH 4 - Function: SUSTENUTO

1. For footswitch-controlled sustenuto, select the desired footswitch (as per GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS 6) then key in 4. Pressing the footswitch will sustain any keys being
held down at the moment the switch is pressed. Notes played after pressing the
footswitch will play normally. To cancel the sustaining notes, release the footswitch.
Application: Sustenuto can sustain a few notes while the rest of the keyboard plays
normally. For example, press the footswitch while holding a bass note for a pedal point
bass effect, then play notes normally on top of the sustaining bass sound.

FOOTSWITCH 5 - Function: ADVANCE PRESET

1. To advance via footswitch from one Preset to the next higher numbered Preset (i.e. from
Preset 01 to Preset 02), select the desired footswitch (as per GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS 6) then key in 5.
Press the footswitch momentarily to advance to the next Preset. Advancing past the
highest-numbered Preset resets the Emulator II to the lowest numbered Preset.
Note: If you advance to a Preset that does not have this destination assigned to one of
the
footswitches,
