Playing The Performances; Mode Changement - Quasimidi Technox Owner's Manual

3.) PLAYING THE PERFORMANCES/4.) MODE CHANGEMENT
3.) Playing the We'll stop all this theoretical rubbish now. You shurely didn't buy your TECHNOX because you like
Performances reading manuals so much, did you? You'd rather get some noise out of you new synth "boom box" like
all the other guys with those baseball caps. We'll first listen to some of the performance-sounds. With
the "VALUE/SOUND" dial you can select the different performances when you're in the main page. If you
are not sure about this point, try pressing the "EXIT" key several times. The TECHNOX will return
automatically to the main page. But you certainly won't hit this key during several hours (unlike you're
an "EXIT" key fetichist...); so - you've reached the main page when you get the following message on
the display:
Performance-Sounds will be selected in the following way.
Both Alpha-Dials:
"PART/BANK"-buttons:
Some of the performance sounds make use of the arpeggiator. If - by the way - your TECHNOX doesn't
play the stuff you play on your keyboard, there may be the slight possibility that the arpeggiator is turned
on. If you're hearing some strange sequencer-like things in the background you can be sure:
AH! That's the arpeggiator! And if these arpeggios give you a kind of 'lustful feeling', have a closer
look at page 25; there you'll find everything you need to know of how to increase these feelings... (Don't
bother - this manual is neither censored nor X-rated!)
Also, some performances use the pitch-bend and/or modulation wheel for the control of sound-parameters.
Therefore you should make heavy use of these wheels in order to hear those real-time sound-changes.

5. Use the "VALUE" dial to change to sequencer-multi-mode. MIDI-Omni-mode will be switched off
automatically.
6. Press the "EXIT" key to leave the edit menu. Your TECHNOX memorizes all your changements, even
after switching it off! Therefore, if you want to play the performance-sounds, you have to change to
performance-mode.
