Edit/Instrument Parameters

EDIT
KEYDOWN LAYERS
INST
Press Edit / Instrument / 1
This parameter determines which layer(s) will be triggered when the keyboard is played.
• Select KEYDWN LAYERS=########. Use the cursor and the Up/Down Arrow buttons to
select either a number (layer enabled on keydown) or a dash (layer disabled on keydown) for
each layer.
EDIT
KEYUP LAYERS
INST
Press Edit / Instrument / 2
This parameter determines which layer(s) will be triggered when a key is released. A good
example of this would be the “thunk” sound made by a harpsichord when you release a key.
This release sound can be sampled separately and placed in a layer that you designate as a keyup
layer. If you want a layer to be triggered only when keys are released, be sure to turn that layer
off with the KEYDWN LAYERS parameter.
• Select KEYUP LAYERS=########. Use the cursor and the Up/Down Arrow buttons to select
either a number (layer enabled on keyup) or a dash (layer disabled on keyup) for each layer.
EDIT
MIDI OUT CHANNEL
INST
Press Edit / Instrument / 3
Use this parameter to determine which MIDI channel the instrument will transmit on, if the
TRANSMIT ON= parameter on the EDIT/System•MIDI page is set to INST CHANNEL. Any of
the 16 MIDI channels can be selected.
If TRANSMIT ON=BASE CHANNEL, the ASR-10 will only transmit on the Base MIDI channel
(also on the EDIT/System•MIDI page) no matter which MIDI channel is selected.
Also, if the instrument has been assigned LOCAL status, it won’t matter what MIDI channel you
assign here — playing that instrument will not transmit any MIDI information.
Note:
Sequence playback will always transmit on the MIDI OUT CHANNEL, even if
Edit/System•MIDI, TRANSMIT ON=BASE CHAN.
Range: MIDI channels 1 to 16
