SUPPORT INFORMATION

If you load the init patch into one of the layers, the performance will 

switch to single mode.

Editing a Patch

Patch editing is quick and easy on the Super Gemini and can even be 

done simultaneously thanks to individual controls per layer.

The sound shaping controls for each of the two layers are located in the 

upper two rows of the front panel: The top row contains controls for the 

upper layer, the second row contains controls for the lower layer.

The sound shaping controls for a single layer.

The boxed sections in the bottom row, starting with the layer section, 

contain patch-related controls shared by both layers. The respective front 

panel area includes the voice assign, arpeggiator and sequencer sections, 

the multifunctional select buttons, as well as the chorus and delay effects.

You can toggle between the layer-specific settings controlled in these 

sections by pressing the 

UPPER

 and 

LOWER

 buttons in the layer section.

The boxed front panel area that contains shared controls for both layers.

In addition to these sections, the performance control section to the left of 

the keyboard allows you to further shape your sounds by using a second 

LFO, adding portamento and determining what patch parameters of each 

layer should be affected by pitch bend and polyphonic aftertouch. See 

pages 67-73 for more details.
