Chapter 2: Playing the DG8
DG8 REFERENCE MANUAL 37
There are two methods you can use to create a Layer:
• Press and hold the
LAYER/OFF button then press a Keyboard Bank button. A
Keyboard Program from this Bank will appear in the
LAYER display, layered
with the current Program in the
PRIMARY display. Use the ▲ and ▼ arrows, if
necessary, to select the desired Keyboard Program from the Bank.
OR
• Press a Keyboard Bank button to select the Primary Sound. While you are still
pressing the Keyboard Bank button, press another Keyboard Bank to select
the Layer sound.
• You can layer two Programs from the same Keyboard Bank. After selecting the
desired Primary program, press and hold the
LAYER/OFF button and press the
same Keyboard Bank button. Use the
▲ and ▼ arrows to select the desired
Keyboard Program in that Bank. Please note that this method is the only way
you can layer two Keyboard Programs from the same Bank.
• Once a Layer has been set up, you can change the Primary or the Layer sounds:
- To change the Primary sound to another Program in the same Bank, press
the
PLAY button to move the cursor to the PRIMARY SOUND display. Then use
the the
▲ or ▼ arrows to select another Program in the Bank.
- If you want to change the Primary sound to another Bank, simply press
another Keyboard Bank button (in this case it doesn’t matter where the
cursor is; pressing a Keyboard Bank button automatically changes the
Primary).
- To change the Layer sound to another Program in the same Bank, press the
PLAY button to move the cursor to the LAYER display, then use the the ▲ or ▼
arrows to select another Program in the Bank.
- If you want to change the Layer sound to another Bank, press and hold
LAYER/OFF. While LAYER/OFF is still being pressed, press another Keyboard
Bank button, then use the the
▲ or ▼ arrows (if necessary) to select another
Program in the Bank.
To exit this mode, press the
LAYER/OFF button. The DG8 will remove the Layer sound
and keep the Primary Sound. The cursor will move to the Primary Sound display.
