The Split and Layer Soft Buttons
The soft buttons SPLIT and LAYER perform slightly different functions, but offer identical
parameters.
The Split Function allows you to split Programs such that keys in one region of the keyboard
produce different sounds than another region. The Layer Function allows you to layer
Programs and Multis such that more than one sound can be produced by striking one key.
You do not need to use Multi Edit Mode to configure Zone key ranges, Programs and
volumes. Simply hit the soft button while in Multi Mode to select the Function. You can
then configure additional Zones, each of which may have its own Program and controller
assignments. The result may be saved as a new Multi.
There are five parameters, described below, that determine the behavior of the Split or Layer.
Use the cursor buttons to access each of the parameters for each active Zone.
The Split Function
When you create a Split in a Multi, you are in fact activating a new Zone within the current
Multi. If the current Multi already has its maximum number of active Zones and you press
the Split Function soft button, then a message will appear on the display indicating that you
have reached the maximum number of active Zones. Once you have saved your Split, you
can continue to add Split or Layer Zones to the Multi until you reach the maximum number
of active Zones.
