As you played the above sounds, you started to appreciate the power of being able to quickly edit useful parameters
with the Realtime Controls as outlined in the Performance Tips.
1.
Press the SELECT button: each press cycles through the three rows of knob assignments, A, B, and C.
2.
Row A is a fixed row of assignments, affecting filter and envelope settings.
3.
Row B is a flexible, assignable row of functions that can modify volume, portamento, effects parameters, etc.
Hint: As a general rule, Korg puts Reverb Depth on Knob 4 and other effects control on Knob 3
current assignments on any Program, Combi or Multi, press the MENU/OK button, and use Click Point to
navigate to the Arp/Controls page - press ClickPoint down to 'open' the page, and use the PAGE+ button
to navigate to the Controls tab.
4.
Row C is dedicated to the arpeggiators (Remember, two arps at a time are available in Combi and Multi
mode!)
>
There is a new function for Knob #3 in Row C, ARP LENGTH. As an example, select Combi A006,
The Fire Inside
start turning Knob #3 fully counter-clockwise, eventually 'squashing' the arpeggiators to a single event,
capturing the vibe of a realtime remix!
