1 Getting Started

Before you begin the Keystation Pro 88 Advanced Guide, we suggest that you take the
time  to  familiarize  yourself  with  the  Getting  Started  Guide,  a  printed  manual  that
accompanied  your  Keystation  Pro  88.   (You  can  also  download  the  Getting  Started
Guide from www.m-audio.com.)

The Getting Started Guide provides an explanation of the Keystation Pro 88’s layout and
basic  functions.   This  manual  builds  on  the  Getting  Started  Guide  to  give  you  a  full
understanding of the powerful features of the Keystation Pro 88.

2 Terminology

In order to get the most out of this Guide, please familiarize yourself with the following terms:

Edit Mode:

Edit Mode describes the short period of time (three seconds) after a function button has
been pressed, during which time the parameters of that function can be altered via the
numeric keypad. No data is sent out of the Keystation Pro 88 when it is in Edit Mode,
except for Program and Bank Changes. LCD symbols shown in Edit Mode indicate that
a  particular  parameter  can  be  edited.  If  a  number  is  partially  entered  and  a  new
controller turned,  that  number will  become  the  relevant parameter number for  the  new
controller and the three second editing period will retrigger.

Default Mode:

Default  Mode  describes  the  state  of  the  Keystation  Pro  88  when  no  function  buttons
have been pressed within the last three seconds. In Default Mode, the LCD shows the
controller symbol, and the two-digit display shows the last selected controller. The three-
digit display shows the currently assigned MIDI CC number.

Zone Edit Mode:

Zone  Edit  Mode  describes  the  period  of  time  between  the  pressing  of  a  Zone  Range
button—or  the  selection  of  a  Group  A  controller—and  when  the  operation  becomes
complete. During Zone Edit Mode, the LEDs above the Zone buttons will flash to indicate
that  the  Zones can  be  selected for  editing. The  LCD will also flash the  Zones that  are
currently selected for editing.

3 Performance Operations of the Keystation Pro 88

Sending Program Changes During Performance

You can send out a Program Change message to your sound module, instrument or any
other device that will receive this standard MIDI message. The Program Change will be
sent on the Zones that are active at that time.
