MULTI MAP EDIT
Opens an editor for mapping the functions of single notes or note ranges on the KEYBOARD or on an external
MIDI keyboard. The functions that can be mapped include: Internal trigging of Sounds on any track, trigging of
MIDI notes on any MIDI channel and the ability to trig patterns with custom transpose settings. Multi map allows
custom mapped keyboards splits, custom pattern trigging per key, individual Sound trig per key, MIDI trig of
external synths, and more. In the Multi map mode, for example, complete analog drum kits, bass lines, and lead
sounds can be played simultaneously. Ideal for performances and live improvisations.
Additionally, the internal multi map trigs can be recorded with the Analog Keys sequencer. At most, one unique
function may be mapped to each of the 128 keys of the entire MIDI keyboard range. One multi map setting is
stored for each global slot, which means 4 different keyboard maps per project can be used.
Press [FUNCTION] + [MULTI MAP] to open the multi map editor instantly. To enable/disable the multi maps you
have created (or the default keyboard split), press [MULTI MAP].
ENTRIES are the basic building blocks of the multi map. They define what function will be
assigned to each key or key range. Up to 128 entries may be created per multi map. If no
entries exist, select ENTRIES, and then CREATE NEW ENTRY. If you wish to erase all
entries to start anew, select ENTRIES and choose CLEAR ALL ENTRIES. If you wish to use
the default multi map, a keyboard split, clear all entries and choose CREATE SPLIT. Select
the entry to edit in the left part of the display by using the [UP]/[DOWN] arrow keys or the
SOUND SELECTION wheel and press [YES/SAVE]. The cursor will move to the right part of
the display where the list of mapping alternatives is visible.
To edit a multi map entry, navigate by using the [UP]/[DOWN] arrow keys or the SOUND
SELECTION wheel. Change the highlighted item in the list by pressing the [LEFT] or [RIGHT]
arrow keys. Note that the map entries may be instantly tried by playing the specified range on
the Analog Keys KEYBOARD.
FUNCTION selects one of the four main types of functionality for the MIDI mapping.
• NONE sets a KEYBOARD or external MIDI keyboard key or range that will not be
used for any function. Convenient for defining a ‘no-play’ zone on the keyboard
between two or more sections with different Sounds or functions.
RANGE LOW sets the note on the keyboard on which to start the desired key-
board range.
RANGE HIGH sets the note on the keyboard on which to end the desired key-
board range.
DELETE ENTRY deletes the whole entry. Select and confirm by pressing [YES/
SAVE].
