They are capable of transposing the sound four octaves in either direction, and their indicators
have a color-coded scheme to keep track of transposition changes as follows:
ƒ
Unlit = Not-transposed
ƒ
Green = One octave away
ƒ
Orange = Two octaves away
ƒ
Red = Three octaves away
ƒ
Flashing red = Four octaves away
6. Moving the MOD WHEEL adds LFO intensity (“vibrato”) to the chosen sound. The MOD WHEEL
can be assigned to any controller that would benefit from a smooth wide range of values. (MOD
WHEEL defaults to transmitting CC#1)
7. Plug in an optional momentary pedal, and it will default to the DAMPER function (CC#64)
>
DAMPER can be re-assigned to any controller number, function as a MOMENTARY or TOGGLE
switch, or transmit separate ON and OFF values.
