Select the desired Drum Voice.
Do this in the normal way, by using the VALUE buttons.
C
Play the drum sounds.
Play the sounds from the MU15’s keyboard or from a connected
MIDI keyboard.
Since the various drum/percussion sounds are spread out over
several octaves, in order to play them from the MU15, you’ll need to
change the octave setting (see next section).
Changing the Octave Setting
Although the MU15’s built-in keyboard has a two-octave range, you can
actually play it over a range of ten octaves.
Operation
Use the OCT DOWN / OCT UP buttons.
Pressing the OCT DOWN button lowers the pitch by one octave, and
pressing the OCT UP button raises it by one octave. The current
octave setting is shown in the display. (No indication appears when
the octave setting is normal.)
NOTE
•
For Normal Voices (such as Piano or Strings), this changes the pitch.
For Drum Voices, this changes the drum/percussion sounds playable
from the keyboard.
You can instantly restore the normal octave setting by pressing both
OCT DOWN / OCT UP buttons simultaneously.
