reCOrDiNG vS. Live MODe
The Key-Largo has two modes, set via the USB ASSIGN recessed
control on the side of the unit. When this switch is disengaged the
Key-Largo is set to LIVE mode. This means the USB audio from the
computer is treated like any other keyboard input; you can send it to
the effects loop, blend it with the other keyboard inputs, and control it
with an external volume pedal. Most players will keep the Key-Largo in
LIVE mode for the majority of the time, especially when using the device
during a performance.
Recording
Live
When the recessed switch is engaged, the Key-Largo is in RECORDING
mode, and the USB audio from the computer is sent directly to the MAIN
and MONITOR outputs. This configures the Key-Largo for use as a USB
recording interface for tracking and overdubbing keyboards. You can
use the volume pedal to control your performance without affecting the
backing tracks that you’re playing along to, and the effects loop will only
affect the inputs that you’ll be recording. In this mode, the USB EFX
SEND will not be active, and an external volume pedal will not affect the
signal returning from the computer.
In LIVE mode, the Key-Largo is the centerpiece of your performance rig. Control your inputs,
sustain, effects, and output volume in a compact footprint.
In RECORDING mode the Key-Largo is a powerful 24bit/192kHz interface, allowing you to
capture ideas on the road or in the studio.
