procedure use F5 Escape or to return to the default Footswitch menu, use F4 Undo .
F5 Swell: When this parameter is enabled, it allows you to use a volume pedal to control only the volume of the right lead sec-
tion of the keyboard. The arranger will not be affected.
F6 Regis. Menu: This calls up the menu to program the control of the single parameters of a Registration, as described in the relevant
chapter.
F7 Regis. Mode: This allows you to choose what events should or shouldn’t be impacted if a Registration from the Block Registration
memories or a Single Registration is called as described in the relevant chapter.
F8 Text: This enables or disables visualisation in Arranger or Song Play mode of a text file (.TXT).
F9 Song Mode: This selects the access time to a Midi file on Hard Disk between Normal , (i.e. beginning with the first beat of the first
bar), and Fast (which starts reproduction instantly at the beginning of the Midi file, without keeping in mind the bars
that do not contain any notes). In this way it is possible to play a number of Midi files without interruptions.
F10 Song Expr: If set to Yes , the volume pedal controls the global Song level.
UTILITY, PAGE 2/2
From the initial page of the Utility menu access is gained to the second page by pressing PAGE + . The parameters available are the following:
F1 Vocal Ch: This makes it possible to Lock the MIDI channel selected to control the Vocalizer no matter what the source Midi file
is. In this way you avoid the need to always set the same MIDI channel for different Midi files.
F2 Arabic:
This calls up a new page to create tunings suitable for the various countries using the Arabic scale, which is kept even
in the case of transposition. A scale is shown in the middle of the display, the notes of which are selected using the
octave keys from C5 to B5. Once the note is selected a box appears indicating a value of –50 Cent (a fourth of a tone)
that can be modified precisely using the
VALUE +/- push buttons. By pressing the same key again the modification is
cancelled and the tuning returns to the original one. The parameters available are the following:
F1 Left: This establishes whether the intervals of the Arabic scale are operational also on the Arranger and
Lower parts or otherwise. If set as No the Arabic scale is not cut-out from the whole Left part.
F5 Escape: This returns to the initial page of the Utility menu.
F6 Footswitch: If set as Note Mapping , the Arabic scale is also applied to the notes played using the pedal. If
set as Arabic Set , the thirteen Arabic scales to be called up instantly are assigned to the pedal switches.
