SEQUENCER MODULE
Since you expect to play only one bass note at a time, assign all the bass Preset Voices
to Output Channel 1 (see PRESET DEFINITION 23, "Edit Voice" or PRESET
DEFINITION 22, "Assign Voice"). Let's also suppose that you don't expect to play more
than three notes at a time with the strings; assign the string Preset Voices to Output
Channels 2, 3, and 4. This leaves four channels left over for the piano, which you assign
to Output Channels 5 through 8. As you play back the Sequence, the instrument sounds
will appear at their respective outputs as programmed when you assigned the Voices to
the Presets. These outputs can then be sent to a. mixer and processed independently.

SETUP PROTOCOL

Several of the Emulator II Sequencer functions (EXT CLK, Auto Correct, Metronome)
involve a "setup" routine where you choose from numerous options. One slider selects
the various steps of the setup routine, while another slider chooses options for each step
of the setup. For example, one setup might be to select the Emulator It timing reference
with Slider A, then choose between the various timing (synchronization) options with
Slider D.
Once the display shows the desired option, it is no longer necessary to move Slider D.
Move Slider A to enter the existing value and proceed to the next step in the setup
routine.
Note that your choices for setup remain as chosen unless you change them or turn off
the instrument. (Upon turning the instrument back on, all setup routines assume their
default values.) Also, note that the Emulator II will change some setups automatically --
for example, when you go into record mode on the Sequencer, the Emulator II will select
the lowest-numbered available track for a selected Sequence under either of two
conditions:
1) The instrument has just been turned on
or
2) You are activating the Sequencer module after having previously deactivated it.
However, as long as you stay in the Sequencer module, the instrument will select or
erase the track just selected or erased.
