Loading Programs
The Vocalist Workstation EX is shipped from the factory with the first
factory program selected once it is powered up. Turn the Data Wheel
knob to scroll through the different factory programs. Programs are
loaded automatically as you turn the wheel. Programs can also be loaded
via MIDI program change.
There are two banks of programs to choose from with 50 programs in
each. The ÒFactoryÓ or ÒUserÓ button will light up when either of these
banks are chosen. You can save edited programs into the User bank only.
See ÒStoring your EditsÓ for further details.
The LCD Display Window
When you load a new program, the LCD displays information you will
need in order to control the Workstation correctly. The following graphic
shows these details:
Program Number
Shows a number from 1 to 50.
Current Key/Chord Root
This two character field shows the current key or chord root note in
Scalic or Chordal harmony programs only.

names in the User bank if edits have been made.
Program Harmony Type
In Scalic or Chordal harmony programs only, this character will be either
a backlit ÒSÓ or ÒCÓ. The ÒSÓ shows that the program is based on a Scalic
harmony, while the ÒCÓ shows that the program is built on a Chordal har-
mony. These characters are available for your use in User programs in
the Program naming screen.
Indicator Arrow
This shows which of the available Harmony Styles is currently loaded. It
will move when you press the Softkeys to select another Harmony Style.

These variations are based on the Harmony Type featured in the current

name. For more information see the section called ÒUnderstanding the
Five Harmony TypesÓ.
