ARRANGE MODE MENU

From the main display page you gain access to the control of the different Arranger functions by pressing

F4 Arrange Mode

. The functions are

listed on two pages that can be accessed using the

PAGE +/-

buttons. The parameters are assigned to the relevant function buttons. The mod-

ifications carried out on the different parameters are valid for all the Styles but are not permanently stored. If you also wish to call up these
modifications later on, you need to save them within a

Registration

. The parameters set in

Arrange Mode

are valid for all Styles until a new

Registration

is called up (although a registration can be programmed to either affect or not affect the arranger mode settings).

ARRANGE MODE: FIRST PAGE

F1 Low 1 Hold:

pressing repeatedly the function push button

activates the storage of the notes played with

Lower 1

while the

Arranger is playing. In this way you will still hear the notes played with

Lower 1

on the left to the split point of the

keyboard, even after you have stopped playing them.

Hold

Lower 1

is activated by default, since usually a strings

or pad voice is used.

F2 Low 2 Hold:

the same as

F1 Low 1 Hold

, but dedicated to the second sound assigned to

Lower 2

Hold

Lower 2

is disabled by

default, since usually a piano type voice is used.

F3 Off Stop:

The

Lower

sounds are muted if the Arranger is Stopped and the sounds are heard again when the Arranger starts play-

ing. This function is most useful to set a chord for the Intro without hearing the notes played by the

Lower

parts.

Activate this if you often use the Intro with the

Sync Start

, thus you avoid hearing (for a very short period of time)

the notes of the chords played in the

Lower

section. This mode is different from what is offered in

F5 LOWER MODE

Note:

If the LOWER MODE Is set to 'HOLD STOP', Off stop Is automatically de-activated.

F4 Lower Mute:

This function mutes the

Lower

voice.

F5 Lower Mode:

This allows you to establish how the voices assigned to

Lower 1

and

will sound if the

and

F2 Low Hold

are acti-

vated and the LED of the

HOLD

button is on, while the Arranger is in Stop condition. The following conditions can be

selected pressing repeatedly the

function button:

Normal:

the

Lower

sounds stop playing as soon as you release the notes on the keyboard part to the left of the split

point;

Bass + Lower:

to the timbres of

Lower

also those of the bass of the Style are added, to underline the keynote of the

chord even while the Arranger is stopped. The timbres stop playing as soon as you release the notes on the left to the
split point.

Hold Stop:

the notes of the

Lower

part remain in

Hold

even after they are released on the keyboard – they are sus-

tained indefinitely.

F6 Bass:

the first of the two values possible, selected by repeatedly pressing the function push button

, indicates the sus-

tain time of the bass sound which can be set using the

VALUE +/-

push buttons. The second parameter establishes if

the

Manual Bass

is to be polyphonic, maintaining the decay of the single chords, or monophonic. The parameter is

modified with the

VALUE +/-

buttons.

F7 Bass Boost:

This is used to increase or decrease the level of the lower frequencies of the audio range, to boost or reduce them
according to the amplification system. The default value suggested by the manufacturer Is 'No Boost'.
Note: Bass Boost values of '+' and '++' should not be used If slight distortion Is experienced at higher volumes.

F8 Bas Octav:

The parameter indicates the +/- transposition by two octaves of the bass timbre and is modified using the

VALUE +/-

push buttons.

F9 Ped. Board:

This function must be enabled by pressing the relevant function button in order to use the optional pedal board con-
trolling the arranger performance. For further information please see the section dedicated to the pedal-board.

F10 Bass To Pb:

If a pedal-board is connected, activating this function with the relevant function button and with

Manual Bass

enabled, the pedal-board allows you to play the bass timbre of the Style, independently from the Arranger, while on
the keyboard part to the left of the split point you may still play the Arranger chord.
