Registration; Calling Up And Saving A Registration Of The Block Registration Group - KETRON SD1 User Manual

Registration

Thanks to these special memories all the control panel settings and the main parameters that control the SD1 can be called up instantly. Once
the Registrations have been programmed they make it very quick to change the Style, the Voice variations, the settings of the effects and above
all the automatic call-up of the audio samples associated with a Style and the possible TXT file. The programming of a Registration does not
entail any special menu with all the parameters and values available and therefore they are to be modified from the single menus to which they
belong. It is usually better to start-off from a default setting and then set just the Style, the Voices and the other parameters without having to
go through all the menus.
The Registrations, once programmed, are extremely useful when playing live but it takes some time to program them however, which requires
some work at home.
When programming, but also when playing live, it could be necessary to establish which parameter will be recorded or otherwise in the
Registrations. It could indeed be useful to leave one or a number of parameters free or to disable the call-up function of the parameter status
with the following Registrations.
Each single function saved in the Registration can be enabled or disabled via the dedicated Registration Mode menu found in Utility.
A Registration can be called up from the group 198 memories saved in Flash RAM (Block Registration), or from Floppy or Hard Disk, in which case
it will be called Single Registration. The Block Registration and Single Registration parameters are absolutely identical, but their management
is quite different:
For a single Registration in Block Registration all the 198 Registrations have to be saved in one single file. The Single Registration on the other
hand is always saved as a single file.
While it is possible to display the Single registration's stored in Hard Disk or in Floppy Disk in a list, this is not possible with Block Registration,
which can only be called up by entering the number using the numeric keypad.
It takes less time to load the Block Registration than the Single Registration.
The Block Registrations are stored in the memory even when the instrument is turned off, as they are saved in Flash RAM.

CALLING UP AND SAVING A REGISTRATION OF THE BLOCK REGISTRATION GROUP

As mentioned the Block Registration group stores 198 Registrations in Flash RAM. Each Registration can be selected by enabling the BLOCK
REGISTR push button (the LED lights up) and then by entering the corresponding 3-figure number using the numeric keypad (STYLES push but-
tons). The name of the Registration called up will be displayed in bold print next to the number in the top left corner of the display.

the BLOCK REGISTR push button:

Proceed as follows to save the whole group of Block Registration on disk in one single file with the .REG extension:
