THE GUIDED TOURS
GUIDED TOUR #1: MEET THE EMULATOR
This tour covers how to:
Care for diskettes
Load a Bank from a Performance disk when first turning on power
Select different Presets from the Bank
Load additional Performance disks
Tune the Emulator II to other instruments
Transpose the keyboard
...and also discusses the Emulator II's "modular" design philosophy.
DISK HANDLING
Disks are delicate and store valuable data. Before proceeding, carefully read GENERAL
INSTRUCTIONS 5 ("Disk Handling") for important information on how to care for your disks.
LOADING A PERFORMANCE DISK
1. Turn on the Emulator II, then insert the Grand Piano disk in Drive 1 according to the
instructions given in the next to last section of GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 5 ("Disk
Handling").
2. After about 20 seconds of loading time, the display will show the Current Preset number
and name (the cursor will flash underneath the first digit). Start playing the keyboard and
turn up the MIX OUT control for a comfortable listening level.
SELECTING DIFFERENT PRESETS
1. The Bank you just loaded contains several Presets. To call up a new Current Preset, use
the keypad underneath the display. Note that "leading zeroes" must be entered for
Preset numbers (i.e. type 0 and 2, not just 2, to call up Preset 02). Now type 0 then 2 on
the keypad; these will replace the numbers indicated by the flashing cursor.
2. The display says P02 Piano #2. Play the keyboard...hey, it sounds just like a piano!
3. Now call up more Presets (refer to GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 1, "Selecting the Current
Preset"), steps 1 and 2). If you make a mistake and enter a number for which there is no
Preset, the display will list the entered Preset number and say NOT FOUND; try calling
up the desired Preset again. To find out what Presets are available on the disk, refer to
PRESET DEFINITION 19, "Catalog Presets".
When you're ready to check out some more sounds, proceed.
