Sound and Setup Select Buttons
To the right of the display are the 16 sound and setup select buttons. When in Internal
Voices mode (indicated by the LED over the display being on), each button can select
the two sounds named in the label above the button. Press a button the Þrst time, itÕll
glow red, and youÕll get the ÒredÓ sound (the sound thatÕs in the row that has a red
arrow pointing to it). Press the same button again; it will turn green, and youÕll get the
green sound. In this way you can very quickly select any of the Stage PianoÕs 32 built-
in sounds (voices).
When in MIDI Setups mode (indicated by the LED under the display being on), these
same buttons allow you to select one of 32 possible MIDI Setups. For these, youÕll
want to use the numbers
under
the button; odd for red and even for green. Note that
the sound associated with each setup is programmable and may be different from the
sound named on the button.
In Edit mode (indicated by some of the LEDs to the left of the display being on), the
sound or setup is frozen and these buttons serve a variety of data entry functions as
marked on the buttons themselves. Refer to Chapter 3 for details on their use with the
editors.
The Numeric Display
The numeric display is in the center of the panel and is better described as a 3-
character display because sometimes it will also display stylized letters. The display
shows 4 kinds of information depending on mode as follows:
1. In Internal Voices Play mode, it shows the current Sound Number, 1Ð32.
2. In MIDI Setups Play mode, it shows the current Setup Number, also 1Ð32.
3. In Edit mode, it shows the current parameter value, which may be a positive
number, a negative number, or a string of 3 characters depending on the
parameter.
4. Sometimes, regardless of mode, the display may show a message or even ask a
question.
