11.11 Bass Reg. on current Set
This is an environment in its
own right rather than a param-
eter. It allows you to set six
parameters for all Bass registers
of the currently selected Set
simultaneously. This may help you save a lot of time,
especially for increasing or decreasing the volume of
some or all reeds, or for selecting a different noise type.
But be careful not to overuse this functionality.
Here’s how to take advantage of this environment:
(1) Select the Set whose Bass registers you want to
edit simultaneously.
(2) Select this parameter (“11.11 Bass Reg. on
current Set”).
See p. 38 for the two possible approaches (one via
the JUMP menu, the other using the registers).
(3) Turn the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select the parame-
ter to be edited for all Bass registers.
The possibilities are:
Reed: Reed ALL, Reed 16’, Reed 8’, Reed 8’-4’, Reed 4',
Reed 2’
Volume: Vol ALL, Vol 16’, Vol 8’, Vol 8'-4’, Vol 4’, Vol 2’
Others: Noise, Noise Vol, Reed Growl, Growl Vol
As you see, this step may involve two actions:
(a) You first need to decide which parameter type
you want to edit (“Reed”, “Vol”, “Noise”, “Noise Vol”,
“Reed Growl”, or “Growl Vol”);
(b) Select the reeds your change should apply to (only
for “Reed” and “Vol”).
Here’s an example: to set the reed type of all 16’
reeds (one per register) of the current Set to
“Organetto”, turn the [DATA÷ENTER] knob until “Reed
16’” is displayed, then proceed with the next step.
See also “Meaning of the warning that may appear”
on p. 75.
(4) Press the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select “VALUE”,
then rotate the [DATA÷ENTER] knob to select the
desired setting.
The possibilities depend on the choice you made in
step (3) above.
Note: Reeds that are currently off (see “3.2 Register” on p. 50)
adopt the new setting but are not switched on by this opera-
tion.
(5) Press [EXIT÷JUMP] to return to the Main page and
try out all 7 Bass registers.
Note: Do not change Sets at this stage, because that would
erase the changes you have just made.
(6) If you like your new settings, save them:
