Example Stack/Alternate program
Here is an example of how you can use Stack/Alternate.
In this example, hitting the pad once produces a C major
chord. Hitting it a second time produces a G major chord,
and a third hit produces a C major chord again.
To create the above program, follow the procedure below.
1
Press the [F6] OTHER button followed by
the [SF3] MIDI button to call up the MIDI
display, allowing you to set the tone gener-
ator settings for each of the MIDI 16 chan-
nels.
2
Move the cursor to channel 11.
3
Move the cursor down to the TRANSMIT
row, then set the TRANSMIT parameter of
channel 11 to “All” or “PC.”
Settings
off, C#-2 – G8
