9. SELECT
The SELECT section gives you access to many Mirage functions, from parameter selection to
programming, sequencing, sampling and editing functions.
10. Numeric Keypad
The numeric keypad is used to select parameters, sounds, and programs, and to determine
which sounds and patches will be transferred to the diskette.
11. Cancel
This button is used to abort commands and halt functions such as sequencing. It is also used
to cancel editing functions before they are entered into the Mirage memory. Virtually any
command or function can be canceled with no harmful effect as long as CANCEL is pressed
before the event occurs.
12. 0/Prog
Each sound in the Mirage has four preset parameter programs numbered 1 through 4. This key
will display the current program and keyboard half containing that program. Pressing the
button repeatedly will alternately show the current program on the other keyboard half.
Pressing the button and then any number between 1 and 4 will change the program to that
number for that keyboard half.
13. Enter
This button is used to begin the transfer of sounds between the Mirage memory and diskettes,
to execute commands and to initiate sampling and sequencer functions, Any command or
function which dramatically alters the Mirage memory or diskette information will require you
to press ENTER for final confirmation.
