5. Use the bank soft-keys (F5 & F6), the left/right cursor keys, the previous/
next keys or the data entry control to select presets. The previous and
next banks in the folder are shown in the upper right of the Sprint
display window.
If you get lost…
If in your mad button pressing, you find yourself somewhere other than the
Sprint screen, use this shortcut. The E4K is shipped with Assignable Key 3
programmed to access SoundSprint mode. Simply press
Assignable Key #3.
To program an assignable key…
If Assignable Key #3 is not programmed for the Sprint page, you can easily
reprogram it. First go to the Sprint page (Main Screen, Arrow, Sprint), then
press and hold the Assignable Key 3 for two seconds
. Now it's pro-
grammed!
CHECK OUT THE REAL-TIME CONTROLLERS
Each of the Sprint presets is a carefully crafted Instrument with real-time
controllers programmed to control the most important aspects of the sound.
The back of this booklet contains a Sprint preset listing with a description of
what the real-time controllers do in each preset. For many of the Sprint
presets, the sliders are programmed according to the diagram below.
These are only generalized labels; many of the presets use the sliders for
wildly different uses.
Don't forget to check out the other real-time controllers such as the “Thumby
Button”, modulation wheels and keyboard aftertouch (pressure).
To get back the original sound…
After fiddling with the sliders you may just want to get back to the original
settings. Simply press
Assignable Key #3
which has been programmed to
jump to the Sprint page. The original slider settings will instantly reload.
-
Tip:
Aftertouch is applied by
pressing down harder on the key
after the note has been made.
-
Tip:
If you find a set of
slider settings that you like
better than the factory settings
go to Preset Edit, Global and
adjust controllers A-D. Then
save the bank back to itself.
