Selecting Sequences/Presets or Songs
To select a KT Sequence/Preset or Song:
1. Press
{SELECT_SEQ/PRESET}
. This places the KT in Select Sequence/Preset mode and the
{SELECT_SEQ/PRESET}
LED will light. Once in Select Sequence/Preset mode, it is not
necessary to press the
{SELECT_SEQ/PRESET}
button again to select a new Sequence/Preset.
When the
{SELECT_SEQ/PRESET}
LED is on, the upper and lower
{0}
to
{9}
buttons are used
to call up the sounds in memory, one at a time, allowing you to select the one you want to play.

Sequencer Memory Configuration
There are four banks of 70 Presets/Sequences and 30 Songs, each available in the KT (i:INT
(RAM), r:ROM, a:CARD and b:CARD):
• i:INT — 70 Presets/Sequences and 30 Songs can be stored in the KT Internal RAM Memory
(Random Access Memory). The i:INT sequencer bank contains room for 6500 events (events
are recorded data such as keys pressed, controller information, etc.).
• r:ROM — Additional Presets/Sequences and Songs are permanently stored in ROM (Read
Only Memory). Like the Internal (i:INT) sequencer data the ROM sequencer data is
contained within the KT; but unlike the Internal (i:INT) sequencer data, it cannot be modified
or replaced. The Demo Song is found in r:ROM page location 70.
• a:CARD and b:CARD — 140 Presets/Sequences and 60 Songs can be stored in an industry-
standard PCMCIA card (70 Presets/Sequences and 30 Songs in group A, and 70
Presets/Sequences and 30 Songs in group B) which is plugged into the card slot. For more
information about Card Sequencer Memory, see Section 10 — Understanding the Sequencer.
Play the Demo Song
The KT has a pre-recorded demo song in its ROM. This demo song is designed to demonstrate
the KT’s ability to create exceptional sequences.
Before playing the Demo Song, changes made to the current preset/sequence/song will be saved
or discarded, according to the setting of the SaveChangesMode parameter (found by pressing
{EDIT_SEQ/PRESET}
, the upper
{1}
, then the lower
{5}
button). See Section 11 — Sequencer
Parameters for more information about the SaveChangesMode parameter.
To play the Demo Song:
•
While holding down the
{MAKE_DEFAULT_PRESET}
button, press the
{PLAY}
button.
This will select r:ROM Song 70 and will start playback of the Demo Song.
