None can be entered with the alphanumeric function of the Category buttons as -1.
If Entry State is set to None, then when you load the current Multi, no value will be
transmitted. If you specify an Entry State, then a MIDI controller message with this value
will be sent when you load the current Multi.
Exit State
The Exit State parameter determines the state of the Foot Switch or button that is sent as a
MIDI message when the current Multi is exited. You can set this parameter to None, On, or
Off. This parameter is common to all Zones.
None is entered with the alphanumeric function of the Category buttons as -1.
If Exit State is set to None, then when you leave the current Multi by selecting another Multi
or Program, the Foot Switch or button will remain at whatever value corresponds to its
current position. If you specify an Exit State, then a MIDI controller message with this value
will be sent when you select a different Multi or Program.
Velocity
The Velocity parameter only appears if the Mode is set to “Chord” and is for use with switch
controllers. Use the Velocity parameter to select a MIDI attack velocity (0-127) for the
note(s) designated in the Key1 to Key8 field(s.) Alternatively, set the Velocity field to Auto
and the note’s velocity will be the velocity set by the KeyVel Multi Destination (see KeyVel
on page 9-24).
Key1.....Key8
The Key1, Key2, Key3, Key4, Key5, Key6, Key7, Key8 parameters are available when the
Mode is set to “Chord” . Use the Key(1 to 8) parameters to select the note to be played. The
note is displayed by MIDI note name.
To select a note, select the KeyNum field with the cursor buttons, hold the Enter button on
the alphanumeric pad, then play the desired note on the keyboard. You can also change the
note in the field by using the Alpha Wheel or -/+ buttons.
Key
When the Controller parameter is set to a Key (Key1-Key12) and Mode is set to something
other than “Off”, the Key parameter appears. Use the Key parameter to select which of the
Forte’s Keys you wish to use as a switch controller. With the Key parameter selected, you can
set a key by holding the Enter button and striking the desired key.
