Front Panel
Audition Button
The Audition button allows you to hear any preset without hooking up a
MIDI keyboard. When the Audition button is pressed, the LED next to the
button will illuminate and a short “Riff” (programmed as part of the preset)
will play. The Riff is latched on and plays continuously until the button is
pressed again. Presets can be changed while Audition is latched on.
See
“Bank Select Commands” on page 118 for more information on selecting banks
via MIDI.

L.E.D. Beat Markers
• The Audition LED flashes off
quickly on each downbeat and
flashes off for a longer period on
the Riff Loop.
• The Clock LED flashes to mark
each quarter note.
The top line of the display changes to show the MIDI Bank Select controller
values needed to select the preset being auditioned. This handy feature lets
you know the exact Bank and Preset number to enter into your sequencer.
Left/Right Cursor
Buttons
These buttons move the cursor to the next parameter on the display. (The
cursor is a little flashing line underneath one of the parameters in the
display.) Press either cursor button until the cursor is underneath the
desired parameter. The cursor buttons have an auto-repeat feature which
advances the cursor when the button is held continuously.
The cursor can be moved bidirectionally using the Data Entry Control
while either cursor select button is held down (for example, press and hold
the right cursor button and turn the Data Entry Control).
Save/Copy Button
The Save/Copy button is used to save or copy presets and to copy data.
Selected groups of parameters, such as PatchCord settings, can be copied
between Presets and/or between Layers using this menu.
The LED to the right of the button illuminates to indicate that you are in
the Save/Copy menu. The LED also illuminates when any preset parameter
has been changed in the Edit menu (or if the front panel knobs have been
moved with Quick-Edit mode enabled).
Home/Enter Button
The Home/Enter button is dual purpose. In general, this button acts as the
“Home” button. For example, when in an Edit menu, this button snaps the
cursor to the page name field of the current screen. When viewing the
Preset Select screen (we also call it the main screen), this button snaps the
cursor to the preset number field. In these instances, the LED is not used.
Some screens and parameter fields use this button as the “Enter” button. In
these cases, the LED blinks to indicate that the module is waiting for your
response to initiate the operation.
