EXAMPLE 1: Layering sounds
Start by switching on the instrument so that you have the only
the main piano sound active. Youll notice that only the first
section is switched on, (its red ON/OFF button is illuminated).
Now lets add a string sound to this piano. Because of the
way the
Promega
is designed, you can set up your second
sound and make all the adjustments you need BEFORE
you actually hear it.
1) Go to the BASS/OTHER section and use the Virtual-
POT to select the sound SLOWSTRING PAD, (at the
6 oclock position).
2) Use the slider to adjust its volume level to about 90.
Now we can add some reverb to this sound.
Make sure that the REVERB button is turned on and
the PRO EFX button is turned off.

Finally, we need to check that the sound is in its normal octave
range and also that it is not assigned to a split keyboard.
Check that the OCTAVE setting is normal, (both leds should
be off. Pressing both buttons together will accomplish this).
Check that the TO LEFT button is turned off.
Now were ready to turn the section on.
3) Press the red ON/OFF button in this section.
You should now hear the string sound mixed with the
piano.
Lets try some examples combining these various modules together and youll begin to see
just how easy it is to work with the
Promega
. We recommend that you work through these
examples in order since each example starts with the settings from the previous one.
