Listening to the Demo Songs
1. Press the [GLOBAL] and [EXIT] keys together, and DEMO SONG 1 “Grooven Dugan” will play. Take time to listen as
the 10 short demos chain-play. (You can also manually advance through the demos by pressing the [+/YES] key)
Checking out the demos will give you a good idea of the power and versatility of the MS2000.
2. When you’re finished listening, press the [EXIT] key to return to the normal Program Play mode.
Selecting and playing Programs
The MS2000 provides an easy way to get to Program Play mode and select Programs. No matter what “state” the front panel or
display is in when you walk up to the keyboard, simply press the [EXIT] key, and you’ll go to Program Play mode. Programs are
organized into 8 banks, each containing 16 sounds. To select a Program, press one of the SELECT keys 1-16, or press the [+/YES]
or [-/NO] keys to step through the Programs. To change banks press the [BANK UP/DOWN] keys to the left of the [SELECT] keys
1-16. There are 128 RAM Programs in memory.
Note:
Programs H09-14 are six varied VOCODER Programs.
Program H15 is an AUDIO INPUT Program for external audio processing.
Program H16 is an INIT (Initialized) Program for creating new Programs from “scratch”.
Selecting Programs by Category
In the MS2000 preload set of Programs, the [BANK UP/DOWN] keys can be used to move through eight related Programs for each
of the 16 SELECT keys:
! Any front panel changes you make while working with a Program put you in "instant edit mode". If you want to get back to the original
setting of a knob or switch without recalling the Program, turn the knob, or press the switch, and watch the ORIGINAL VALUE LED
