Setup Mode
The Channel/Program (CH/PROG) Page
BankMode for each zone to suit the instrument that is receiving data from it. The default setting,
which works with the largest number of other instruments, is
Ctl 0/32 .
A BankMode value of K2600 is intended for use with the K2000, K2500, or K2600. The Bank
Select message is sent as Controller 32, with a value between 0 and 127. The K2000, K2500, and
K2600 support only 10 banks, with 99 programs per bank, so Program Changes 100 or higher are
sent as Bank Select 1, followed by the last two digits as a Program Change. For example, if
Program 124 is assigned to the zone, this will be sent out the MIDI Out port as Bank Select
(Controller 32) 1, and then Program Change 24.
EntryProgChg
This parameter enables or disables bank and program change commands sent to internal
programs or to the MIDI Out jack when you select setups. If it’s set to
On , the program numbers
for the programs in the 16 zones will be sent via MIDI when a setup is selected. By setting this
parameter to
Off , you can select a setup on the PC3 without changing the internal programs or
those on MIDI devices receiving from the PC3. This is useful if you want to send only controller
data to the PC3 or to MIDI devices, without changing program assignments.
Arpeggiator
The Arpeggiator parameter determines whether the Arpeggiator will affect notes played in the
current zone. The Arpeggiator affects only those zones that have this parameter set to a value of
On .
For any given zone, the Arpeggiator plays notes only within that zone’s Key Range. If the
Arpeggiator, for example, tries to play a C
#
4 in a zone, but that zone’s Key Range ends at C4, the
note will not sound. However, another zone whose Key Range ends at C5 will be able to play the
C
#
4 from the Arpeggiator. Therefore, setting a zone’s Key Range can be important in deciding
how it will respond to the Arpeggiator. The LoKey and HiKey parameters on the ARPZON page
(see page 7-38) determine whether the notes you play get arpeggiated.
