The following additional functions are available for each zone (refer to section 8 for details):
ZONE CTL
Selects a footswitch or panel switch that will turn the zone on or off.
DELAY
The data passing through a zone may be delayed from 0 to 10 seconds.
VELOCITY
Modifies the velocity value of note events.
NOTES
Selects the note-assignment mode of the zone.
VOLUME CTL
Assigns a slider, wheel, or voltage input to control the volume of the sound module.
KEY HOLD
Creates a Sostenuto effect for the zone.
CHORD
Adds up to three additional notes to each note received by the zone.
CONTROLS
Programs wheels, sliders, key pressure (if so equipped), voltage inputs, and panel switches to issue
any desired MIDI control change message.
MIDI cc
Programs the zone to filter, scale, or map external MIDI continuous controller messages.
MIDI sw
Programs the zone to filter, scale, or map external MIDI switch messages.
When creating new presets, it is possible to copy all of the parameters from one zone to another. The new zone can be quick-
ly edited without having to initialize many functions. See the section below entitled Storing Presets .
MISCELLANEOUS PRESET FUNCTIONS
The final step in creating a new SL-2001 preset is to program any miscellaneous Preset-programmable functions that are need-
ed. Refer to section 7 for complete information on these functions:
AUX PROG:
Sends program changes to effects units, mixers, or other devices. Up to eight auxiliary program
change commands may be issued per SL-2001 preset (this is in addition to the eight program
changes issued by the zones).
SWITCHES:
Sets the initial state and response of the 3 SL-2001 programmable switches (sw A, B, C).
PRESET:
Programs the alphanumeric names for the preset and sliders.
Before storing the preset, make sure that all zone enable switches are set as desired. When the preset is selected later, zones
will be enabled or disabled according to the state of the ZONE switches when the preset was stored (see section 8 under
“ZONE Control”).

Many special effects can be created by using multiple zones to control a single instrument. To create an echo effect, use two
zones assigned to the same input and output devices. The first zone will have delay set to zero, while the second zone is set
for the desired delay time. To create multiple echoes, use several zones, each set for a longer delay than the one before it.
Decaying echoes may be produced by adjusting the velocity scaling and offset of each zone.
ZONE BYPASS
For some applications (especially with a sequencer) it is useful to bypass a zone so that all MIDI data on all channels is passed
from an input to an output.
Use Control Slider 1 to select the desired input (IN A through IN D). By selecting an input port instead of a device name, the
zone is automatically bypassed, and will pass MIDI data on all sixteen channels. Control Slider 2 is used to select the desti-
nation. Notice that when MIDI input A through D is selected on Control Slider 1, the normal output devices do not appear
on Control Slider 2. This is because the output device names represent one specific
MIDI channel, whereas a bypassed zone passes MIDI data on ALL channels. MIDI processing functions (including the note
range) are not available for bypassed zones and their parameters will not be displayed.
ZONE PROGRAMMING
Once the zones have been configured and enabled, the SL-2001 functions as a programmable MIDI patch bay. MIDI mes-
sages from the master keyboard or external keyboards may be routed to multiple sound modules under full programmable
control. The next step is to program the many zone functions which make the SL-2001 a very powerful master keyboard.
The Program, Volume, and Transpose functions are fundamental to every SL-2001 preset. They permit initialization of the
program number, volume level, and transpose interval for each sound module used in the preset. To access these functions,
use FUNCTION switch 5, 6, or 7. Refer to section 8 for a detailed explanation of these functions.
