General Controls: Clock & Power
Lower When this lock is closed, the Lower track remains
unchanged when a different Style, Performance
or STS is selected.
This is useful if, for example, you prefer to always
play with the left hand muted and reserved only
to the chords.
Hint: If you want the same Lower settings to be
used during all your shows, save your preferred
Lower settings to the MY SETTING Performance
(automatically selected on startup).
Keyboard Mode (Split)/Accompaniment
When this lock is closed, the status of the SPLIT
button (therefore of the keyboard mode) and the
ACCOMP. button remains unchanged when a
different Performance or STS is selected.
This is useful if, for example, you prefer to always
play in Full Keyboard, with chords recognized on
the whole keyboard range.
Hint: If you want the same Keyboard Mode and
Lower Scanning settings to be used during all your
shows, save your preferred settings to the MY SET-
TING Performance (automatically selected on
startup), then close this lock.
Style pane
Style Tracks Volume
When this lock is closed, the Style tracks' volume
do not change when a different Style is selected.
This is useful when you create your own User
Styles, and prefer to dynamically adjust the vol-
ume by using the sliders as in a mixer. It is not
recommended with Factory Styles, each one
already mixed at its best right at the factory.
Style Tracks Play/Mute Lock
When this lock is closed, selecting a Style does
not cause the Play/Mute status of the Style tracks
to be changed. This way, you can, for example,
turn the bass track off during a whole show, to
allow your bassist to play the part live. Also, you
could mute all Acc tracks, to only play with the
Drum and Bass tracks.
Style Element When this lock is closed, the selected Style Ele-
ment (Variation, Intro...) will not change when
choosing a different Style.
This lock has no effect on the Styles automatically
selected when choosing a SongBook entry. The
Style Element memorized in the SongBook entry
is always selected.
Bass Inversion
When locked, selecting a Performance or STS
will not change the Bass Inversion status. Bass
Inversion can also be assigned to one of the
Assignable Switches or the Assignable Pedal.
(See "Bass Inversion" on page 18).
Manual Bass When locked, selecting a Performance or STS
will not change the Manual Bass status.

Date & Time
Pa600 includes a battery-backed system calendar and clock. This
allows for automatically adding a time-stamp to the files when
they are created or edited.
Note: When you edit a resource file (Sounds, Styles...), all items in
the same bank have their modification date changed. For example,
if you edit a single Style in the "Pop" bank, all Styles in that bank
will take the new modification date.
