14. SEQ 

The buttons in the sequencer section are used in conjunction with the ENTER and CANCEL 
buttons in the Select section to record sequences, playback sequences, load sequences from 
diskettes into the Mirage memory and save sequences on diskettes.  

15. Rec 

This button is used to record and overdub sequences. Pressing the button twice and then 
playing the Mirage will record a new sequence, while pressing the REC button followed by the 
PLAY button will permit overdubbing a previous sequence.  

16. Play 

To play back a sequence, press the PLAY button and the sequence will play back as recorded. 
Pressing the PLAY button while a sequence is already playing will restart the sequence from 
the beginning, The sequence can be interrupted at any time by pressing the CANCEL button.  

17. Load 

To load a sequence from a diskette into the Mirage memory, press the LOAD button and then 
the number of the sequence (1-8) you wish to load. Pressing the ENTER button will start the 
loading process.  

18. Save 

To save a sequence you have recorded by transferring if from the Mirage memory to diskette, 
first insert a formatted diskette into the drive. Next, press the SAVE button and the location 
number (1-8 on SELECT keypad) where you wish to store the sequence on the diskette. 
Pressing the ENTER button will begin the saving process. Note that this will replace on the 
diskette any sequence that was previously saved in that location.  

19. Sample Upper/Lower 

These buttons are used to set up the Mirage to sample sounds. Consult the SAMPLING section 
of the manual for detailed instructions.  

20. Load Upper/Lower 

These buttons are used to load sounds from Ensoniq Sound Diskettes or your own sound 
library. Pressing either or both buttons will instruct the Mirage to load the sounds into the 
memory for the upper, lower or both halves of the keyboard. After pressing the Load 
button(s), select the sound you wish to load (1, 2, or 3) and then press ENTER.  

 

ABOUT DISKETTES 

The Mirage uses 3-1/2" micro floppy diskettes to store information. The diskettes are enclosed in 
a protective plastic carrier with an automatic shutter to protect the diskette from physical 
damage. It is important not to alter this carrier in any way.
