of each MIDI channel is set by the volume of each zone, if a zone uses the same MIDI channel on
the SetupMode CH/PROG page (set with the
Channel
parameter.) If a zone does use a MIDI
channel that one of the tracks in your song uses, the volume of that track will be set by the
ExitVolume
parameter of that zone (on the SetupMode:PAN-VOL page.) If multiple zones use
the same MIDI channel, the
ExitVolume
of the highest numbered zone that uses that channel
will set the volume for tracks that use that channel. If
ExitVolume
is set to
NONE
, the value for
EntryVolume
is used. If
EntryVolume
and
ExitVolume
are set to
NONE
, then the track for that
channel uses the volume set for that channel in Program or Quick Access mode. If there is no
zone that uses certain channels used by your song, then those channels in your song will use the
volume setting of those channels set in Program or Quick Access mode.
Pan
You can set an initial pan position (the balance between the Left and Right audio channels) for
the playback and recording of each track as a value between
0
and
127
. A value of
64
is center. If
the channel of the RecTrk or the control channel contains any panning data (controller 10), the
change will be reflected as the
Pan
parameter’s value in real time, as well as on the MIXER page.
Also, changing the
Pan
value while recording will write Pan automation (controller 10
messages) to the current RecTrk’s event list.
Initial Pan Settings
Each song file does not automatically save your Pan setting for each track. To make a song save
your Pan settings for each track, you must write an initial Pan value for each track. Initial Pan is
the Pan setting that will be used when your song is played back from the start of bar 1. An initial
Pan setting is essentially a Pan automation message that is written before the first tick of a track.
Initial Pan settings are not automatically written during recording because they make it harder
to try out different Pan settings for a track. For example, an initial Pan setting will reset any Pan
adjustments that you make during playback each time the song is stopped and played from the
start of bar 1, or if the song is stopped and played from any point if the
Control Chase
parameter set to
On
on the Song:MISC page (see
Song Mode: The MISC Page
on page 10-17.) If
you plan to try out different pan positions, it is easier if you write an initial Pan after you have
found the desired setting.
Setting Initial Pan Per Track
Follow these steps to change the current
RecTrk
’s initial Pan. While the sequencer is stopped,
press
Record
, change the value of
Pan
, press
Stop
, and save the song (follow the same method
to quickly set initial program or volume settings.) Initial program, pan, and volume can also be
set at the top of each track’s event list (see
Song Editor: The EVENT Page
on page 10-31.)
Setting Initial Values For All Tracks
An important last step before saving a finished song is to store initial values of Program, Volume
and Pan for all tracks. This can be done at any time, but is best done as a last step if you plan to
make a lot of adjustments to these settings. To write initial settings for all tracks, press the
Keep
soft button on the Song:MIXER page (see
Song Mode: The MIXER Page
on page 10-12.) After
pressing the
Keep
soft button you must save your song to save these settings (you are
automatically prompted to save upon exiting the Song:MIXER page.) Pressing the
Keep
soft
button stores the
current
value of each track’s Program, Volume and Pan settings as initial
settings. Be sure that these values on each track are set to the value that you wish to store, as the
settings may have changed if you have written any automation.
Note:
Don’t use the
Keep
soft button if you would like certain tracks to not be stored with initial values.
In this case, only set initial values for each desired parameter as described above (see Setting Initial Pan
Per Track.)
