Chapter 2: Playing the A6
ANDROMEDA A6 REFERENCE MANUAL 31
Mix mode is also used when the A6 is connected to a MIDI sequencer for
multitimbral recording and playback. Each Mix channel, the set of parameters that are
used to control a Program in the Mix, can be assigned to a specific MIDI Channel
with unique MIDI controller assignments.
Especially noteworthy of Mix mode is that it has its own set of programmable effects.
All of the effects available for enhancing Programs are included in this mode and are
fully independent and programmable per Mix. This is particularly useful when
constructing complex Mixes that use many different Programs. These functions are
covered in detail later in this manual in
Chapter 11: Mix Mode.
Global Functions
Global functions are those that affect the A6 no matter what mode it’s in. You can
think of global functions as “master” controls such as
MASTER VOLUME or MASTER
TUNE
.
Also, there are certain MIDI functions that are global as well. Every MIDI instrument
or device has a setting called the Basic MIDI Channel. This sets the Channel on which
the instrument will normally transmit MIDI data, although the “upper” and “lower”
components of splits and layers can be set to transmit and receive on Channels other
than the Basic. Global Mode is covered later in this Chapter on page 49,
Using
Global Mode.
But first, let's become familiar with the Andromeda's display and
soft controls.
