(“
QED
”): Quick Edit
The
§
function button calls the Quick Edit (“QED”) controller view, which will
look something like this:
Two MIDI controllers (control change numbers 16 and 17) can be independently
assigned to several parameters that you can control in real time while playing (also see
“Quick Editing In the Play Mode”, below). The parameters available for editing via the
controllers are individually preset for each voice. You can select from the available range
by using the “Quick Edit Assign” assignment function (
≥
Page 43).
The quick edit view shows you which parameters are assigned to which controller
as well as the current positions of the controllers and their corresponding values. When
the positions of the MIDI controllers used do not correspond to the internal parameters,
the values of the internal parameters are displayed.
Quick Editing In the Play Mode
Although detailed voice editing is carried out in the EDIT mode, the MIDI control-
lers assigned to the quick edit parameters can be used to change the assigned parameters
in real time while playing in the PLAY mode. This can be used simply an expressive
tool, or as a way to actually change the sound of the voice to suit your individual musical
requirements. Since the controllers actually edit the parameters to which they are as-
signed, the “new” voice created by using the sliders can be stored to one of the VL1-m’s
voice memory locations and used just as if it had been edited in the EDIT mode (
≥
the
STORE operation is described on page 27). The parameters available for editing via the
MIDI controllers are individually preset for each voice. You can select from the available
range by using the “Quick Edit Assign” assignment function (
