General Controls > Lock
This page, split in more panes that can be selected by means of
the corresponding side tabs, contains all the available locks.
Locks prevent parameter values to be changed when choosing a
different Performance, Style or STS.
Locks
All the available locks, listed below. Lock them to prevent
changes due to selecting different elements. These locks are also
found in various other pages, next to the locked parameter.
Hint:
To save the status of parameters that have to remain
unchanged, set them and save the MY SETTING Performance
(automatically selected when turning the instrument on). After
having saved the startup Performance, go to these pages and lock
the parameters that must remain unchanged.
Tuning pane
Master Transpose
When this lock is closed, Master Transpose is not
automatically changed when selecting a different
Performance or Style, or a different SongBook
Entry. Also, this lock prevents a Standard MIDI
File generated with an instrument of the Korg Pa-
Series to change the Master Transpose.
(See “Master transpose” on page 111).
Sub Scale/Quarter Tone
When locked, selecting a Performance or STS, or
a SongBook Entry, will not change the Sub-Scale
or Quarter Tone value.
(See “Sub-Scale panel” on page 116).
SubScale/Quarter Tone from STS
When locked, selecting an STS will not change
the Sub-Scale or Quarter Tone settings. The STS
will change sounds and effects but not the scale.
(See “Sub-Scale panel” on page 116).
Auto Octave Depending on the status of this lock, the Upper
tracks can be automatically transposed when
turning the SPLIT on and off.
• If locked, turning the SPLIT on or off will not
change the Upper tracks transposition.
• If unlocked, when turning the SPLIT button off
(Full keyboard mode) the Upper tracks Octave
Transpose will be automatically set to “0”. When
turning the SPLIT button on (Split keyboard
mode) the Upper tracks Octave Transpose will be
automatically set to “-1”.
Control pane
Assignable Switches
When locked, selecting a Performance or STS
will not change the functions assigned to the
Assignable Switches.
(See “Pad/Switch > Switch” on page 129).
Upper 1 FXs In Sound mode, you can assign a Sound to the FX
B Group. When you assign a new Sound to the
Upper 1 track, the FX B settings and Master FX
send levels saved with that Sound can be auto-
matically selected, overriding Performance/STS
settings for this track. Whether Sound or Perfor-
mance/STS effect parameters will be considered,
it depends on the status of this lock.
• If the Upper 1 FX Lock is turned on, when
assigning a new Sound to the Upper 1 track, Per-
formance/STS parameters are left untouched;
selected effects, and FX Send values, are not
changed.
• If the Upper 1 FX Lock is turned off, when
assigning a new Sound to the Upper 1 track,
Sound parameters are considered; selected
effects, and FX Send values, are changed accord-
ing to the Sound’s stored data.
Note: If the effects associated to the selected Sound
are not compatible with the effects already assigned
to the FX B block, the Master FX Send values on
the other Keyboard tracks will be automatically set
to zero.
For example, assume a chorus effect is assigned to
the Master 2 FX processor. If the new Sound
assigns a distortion effect to the Master 2 FX pro-
cessor, the Master 2 FX Send value on the Upper 2,
Upper 3, and Lower tracks will be set to zero, to
avoid these tracks sound in the wrong way. This
way, the Upper 1 track (usually the most important
one for solo playing) will sound with the needed
effect, while the other Keyboard tracks will just
sound dry.
Pad When locked, selecting a Style or SongBook
Entry will not change the Pad assignment.
(See “Pad/Switch > Pad” on page 129).
