and move one of these sliders to proportionally change the vol-
ume of all similar tracks.

but it still works on the Keyboard tracks.

Use this button to select one of the four available operating
modes for the sliders. The sliders can be freely programmed in
Global mode (see “Controllers: Assignable Sliders” on page 209).

VOLUME

When in this mode, each of the sliders controls
the volume of the corresponding track or device
in the display. 

DRAWBARS Each slider controls the corresponding drawbar

of the selected Digital Drawbars Sound.ASSIGN.
A/BTwo sets of eight freely assignable controls,
that can be programmed in Global mode. The
first slider (labeled MP3 Vol) always controls the
volume of the MP3 player. For information on
how to program them, see “Controllers: Assign-
able Sliders” on page 209.

MODE section

Each of these buttons recalls one of the instrument’s operating
modes. When selected, each mode excludes the others.

STYLE PLAY

Style Play mode, where you can play Styles (automatic accompa-
niments) and play up to four Keyboard tracks and four Pad
tracks.

In the main page, Keyboard tracks are shown in the right half of
the display. You can reach the main page by pressing EXIT from
any of the Style Play edit pages. If you are in a different operating
mode, press STYLE PLAY to recall the Style Play mode. If Key-
board tracks are not shown in the display, press the TRACK
SELECT button to see them.

This operating mode is automatically selected when turning the
instrument on.

SONG PLAY

Song Play mode, where you can play back Songs in Standard
MIDI File (SMF or KAR) and MP3 format. Since the Pa3X is
equipped with two players, you can even play two Songs at the
same time, and mix them with the X-Fader.

In addition to the Song tracks, you can play up to four Keyboard
tracks and four Pads along with the Song(s). In the main page,
Keyboard tracks are shown in the right half of the display. You
can reach the main page by pressing EXIT from any of the Song
Play edit pages. If you are in a different operating mode, press
SONG PLAY to recall the Song Play mode. Use the TRACK
SELECT button to cycle between Keyboard and Song tracks.

SEQUENCER

Sequencer mode, where you can play, record or edit a Song (in Stan-
dard  MIDI  File  format).  The  Backing  Sequence  mode  lets  you
record a new Song based on the Keyboard and Style tracks, and save
it as a new Standard MIDI File.

SOUND

Sound  mode,  to  play  single  Sounds  on  the  keyboard,  or  edit
them. By pressing RECORD you can access the Sampling mode,
Pa3X full-featured sampler.

User  Sounds  may  be  based  on  User  PCM  Samples  that  are
loaded into the dedicated Sample RAM memory. Pa3X includes
128 MB of Sample RAM as standard; this memory can be
increased by installing the (optional) EXB-M256 expansion
board.

Please note that the actual amount of User PCM Samples that
can fit the Sample RAM varies depending on the amount of
compression applied to the Samples, and may be up to 200%
over the non-compressed size. Therefore, the full 256 MB Sam-
ple RAM could contain the equivalent of over 500 MB or Sam-
ples.

User PCM Samples are stored in a battery-backed Sample RAM
memory  when  the  Pa3X  is  turned  off  or  put  to  standby  mode.
See “Turning the instrument on and off ” on page 25for more
information).

Information about the Sound and Sampling modes can be found
in the “Advanced Edit” manual, contained in the Accessory Disk.

DEMO

Press the STYLE PLAY and SONG PLAY buttons together to
select the Demo mode. This mode lets you listen to some Demo
Songs, to let you understand the sonic power of the Pa3X. To exit
from this mode, press any of the MODE buttons.
