Power-on Procedure
Always follow proper procedure when powering-up a sound system to minimize the possibility of damage to the
equipment (and your ears!).
1.
Make sure your sound system’s main level/volume control(s) and the FS1R volume control are turned all
the way down prior to turning power on.
2.
Turn on the FS1R.
3.
Turn on your MIDI controller (and computer/sequencer, if used).
4.
Turn on the sound system.
5.
Raise the sound system volume to a reasonable level.
6.
Gradually raise the FS1R VOLUME control while playing the MIDI controller to set the desired listening
level.
n
Some keyboards and other MIDI controllers automatically transmit MIDI control change data corresponding to their control status when the
power switch is turned ON or OFF. The FS1R is programmed to receive this data and respond accordingly, so it is preferable to turn the
FS1R ON before turning the controlling device ON.
Play the Demo
Once you’ve set up your FS1R system, you might like to play the pre-programmed demo sequence to hear how
some of the voices sound. This process will also help to familiarize you with some of the FS1R’s selection and
editing procedures.
1.
Select the Utility Mode
Press the [UTILITY] button to select the utility mode.
2.
Select the Demo Mode
Use the CURSOR [
] and [
] buttons to select the “DEMO” item.
3.
Press [ENTER] and Confirm
Press the [ENTER] button to engage the DEMO mode, then press [ENTER] again if it’s OK to go ahead with the
demo, or [EXIT] to abort.
4.
Select a Song
Use the VALUE [
] and [
] buttons to select the demo song number you want to start with.
5.
Run the Demo
Press the [ENTER] button to run the demo. Playback will start with the selected song, then all other songs will
be played in sequence. The cycle will repeat until stopped.
6.
Stop the Demo
Press the [EXIT] button to stop demo playback. This will return you to the demo song select display.
7.
Return To the Play Mode When Done
Press the [PLAY] button to return to the PLAY mode.
n
After demo playback, data corresponding to the voices used in the demo will remain in the FS1R edit buffer. Demo voice bulk data,
program change and other events can be handled in the same way as other FS1R data.
