can get the feel of moving through programs. (You will find that the ENTER button

must be pressed every' time you want a function to work properly regardless what
you are attempting to do.) Another way to advance programs, is to use a foot

switch plugged into the program change jack, located on the back of the controller.

This will advance the programs in numerical order only.

PARAMETERS:

Now you can start programming parameters within a program. Let us start by first

picking a program, let's try program 00. If you're not sure how to do this, just
reread the last paragraph. OK, now that you are there, you will need to address the

parameters and see how they work.

Using the parameters on the Studio-90 Plus is easy once you get a handle on it. If

you take a look at top of the controller you will see a listing of nineteen

parameters, starting from 00 to 18. In order to access these parameters, press the

parameter (param.) button located on the lower left be\ow the two LEDs. Please
do this now. You will notice that a red light will illuminate under that parameter
button. Now we will choose our first parameter.

SPLIT LEFT-SPLIT RIGHT:

The Studio-90 Plus has two split points represented by parameter 00 (SPLIT LEFT),

and parameter 01 (SPLIT RIGHT). You can assign these split points any where on

the keyboard. These parameters will allow you to have the controller operate in

single mode, split mode or layer mode. For now operate the controller in single

mode (one sound across the keyboard). In the next section there will be examples
of split and layer mode.

* Note: Enter all programs, parameters and values into the memory by pressing

the enter key. The enter key acts as a save function.

In order to activate this mode at this time, press the parameter button. Then press

00 on the numeric key pad. At this point the LEDs will flash number 00, now press

the ENTER key. This procedure will lock parameter 00 into position and move the

red light to the VALUE* function. The VALUE function has a range from 00 to 88

within parameters 00 and 01. You will see how to use different types of VALUES
for these parameters later on in this text.
