 The 

Channel

 and all of its samples will be 

imported into your initial preset and you 
will be returned to that preset with your 
imported channel selected.

Copying or Importing Channels vs 

Replacing or Importing Samples

An important distinction to keep in mind 
is the difference between replacing or 
importing a sample into an existing channel 
vs copying or importing a channel into that 
same channel.

When you copy or import a sample into 
a channel, that sample will be affected by 
all of the channel parameters that were 
previously programmed for that channel. 
Those parameter values may or may not be 
appropriate to the new sample.

When you copy or import a channel into an 
existing channel, the new channel brings 
its sample(s) along with all of the channel 
parameter values programmed for that 
channel. Consequently, one can assume that 
those values are appropriate for the sample 
and the channel’s intended effect (which 
is presumably why you’d be copying or 
importing the channel in the first place).

Channel Modes

Channel modes are selected in the channel’s 

MD 

field. The channel modes are:

Master

 A 

Master

 channel is a basic channel 

that gets its trigger from its associated 

Gate/Trigger

 input. If your preset is 

configured simply as 8 (or fewer) completely 
independent channels, each with its own 
trigger and modulation routings, set each of 
them as a 

Master

 channel and you’re done.

NOTE: 

As you will see below, a 

Master

 

channel can interact with other channels, 

depending on those channels’ own 

Channel 

Modes.

Link

 

Link Mode

 is designed to let you create 

layered voices. A channel in 

Link Mode

 does 

not respond to its own channel’s trigger, but 
instead is triggered by the trigger or gate of the 

Master

 channel in closest proximity above it.

Multiple 

Link

 channels can be triggered by 

one 

Master,

 so you can build layered voices 

of up to 8 layers.

You can have multiple linked groups in a 
single preset. For example, the following 
configuration would give you 1 four-layer 
voice and 2 independent two-layer voices:

 1.

 Master

 2.

 Link

 3. 

Link

 4. 

Link

 5. 

Master

 6. 

Link

 7. 

Master

 8. 

Link

For an example of 

Links,

 check out the 

Demo-Link

 folder in the sample sounds.

Stereo/Right

 The 

Stereo/Right

 

Mode

 is 

intended primarily (but not necessarily 
exclusively) for stereo samples. A 

Stereo/

Right

 channel inherits the trigger/gate and 

channel parameters (except for pan) of the 

Master

 channel above it. So, typically, for a 

stereo sample, you’d assign the left channel 
to 

Master

 mode and the right channel to 

Stereo/Right

 

Mode.

Pan

 is not included in the shared parameters 

to allow you to independently set the pan 
positions of the two stereo channels.

NOTE:

 All channel parameter values 

programmed in the 

Stereo/Right

 

channel are ignored, but are still saved with 
the channel. If the channel is later changed 
to a different mode, those parameter settings 
would then become active.
