EDITING & WRITING PERFORMANCES
Pressing any of the Part buttons when in Performance mode not only makes the display show the Program name & location but
also brings the selected Part up on the front panel controls. This allows editing of Programs while in Performance mode. All the
edits made are transmitted as Controllers & NRPNs on the MIDI channel assigned to the Part of the Performance, so in a
Multitimbral Performance each Part can be individually edited, recorded on a sequencer & played back into the Supernova II Rack.
At any stage during editing a Performance, pressing the Performance button will exit the “Part” display & return the Display to
showing the Performance name & location.
It is possible to temporarily “Mute” Parts of a performance allowing the easy auditioning of separate parts of a Performance whilst
editing or during live performance in a Multitimbral Performance. This is done by simply pressing the Mute button (the Mute button
will light indication that the Mute mode is active ) & pressing the Part button that you want muted. The muted Part button will flash
indicating that it is muted. The display will change to:
The part is Muted. Pressing the Part button again while the Mute mode is active will un-mute the Part & the Part button will stop
flashing & remain lit. The display will change to:
The part is now re-activated. The display remains like this for a few moments & then returns to:
The status of the mutes applied to each part of a performance is memorised with a Performance. This is handy for live applications
as a complete setup is stored complete with mutes. For example 7 Parts of a Performance can be memorised with Mutes on, leav-
ing 1 Part active which is playing say a Bassline. Simply pressing the mute button & un-muting/muting Parts while the sequencer is
playing makes it easy to realise Breakdowns & Builds during live performance.
Similarly there is a Solo function for auditioning sounds. This is done by simply pressing the Solo button ( the Solo button will light
indication that the Solo mode is active ) & pressing the Part button that you want soloed. The Solo part button will light indicating
that it is soloed & all the other part buttons will flash indicting that they are muted. The display will temporarily change to:
The part is Soloed. Pressing any other part button will similarly Solo that Part. Only one part can be soloed at one time.
To exit the Solo mode simply press the Solo button so it is unlit.
