VA-76 Owner’s Manual—More about the Arranger
100
If you select a One Touch memory while another
one is already active
In that case, the VA-76 selects the Tones and Reverb/
Chorus/Delay settings of that One Touch memory.
It may also switch on one of the following functions if
you switched them off after selecting the first One
Touch memory:
• Sync Start
• [INTRO] (if Arranger playback is currently stopped).
Just for your information, the selection of a One
Touch memory is also indicated on the Master page.
Look out for the “OT” symbol.
Ignoring certain One Touch settings
(Cancel Options)
Now imagine that you have grown accustomed to
using the One Touch memories, because they are sim-
ilar to (though less comprehensive than) the User Pro-
grams. What if, for a given song, you want to use the
Tone and effects settings for the Upper1 and Upper2
parts without returning to the Music Style’s preset
tempo (because you are playing a medley)?
In that case, you can take advantage of the One Touch
Cancel options. They act as filters for the functions
supported by the One Touch facility.
1.
While on the One Touch page, press the [Cancel
Options] field.
The display now looks as follows:
2.
Press the field corresponding to the settings that
should not be loaded when you select another One
Touch memory or Music Style.
If a field is displayed in white, the corresponding set-
tings are no longer loaded:
Suitable Tempo— The preset tempo of the selected
Music Style.
KBD Mode— The current Keyboard Mode settings.
You may have selected another chord recognition area
(the entire keyboard, for example). If this field lights,
the chord recognition area is not set back to the left
half of the keyboard.
Sync Start— If this field is on, the function of the
[SYNC] button (see page 96) does not change. So if
you selected “Sync Stop”, this would not be reset to
“Sync Start”. Also, if the [SYNC] button is currently
dark, selecting another One Touch memory or Music
Style does not switch it back on.
Intro— This option means that the [INTRO] button
is not automatically switched on when you select a
One Touch memory or Music Style while Arranger
playback is stopped.
If one of the cancel functions has been activated, the
[Cancel Options] field on the One Touch page con-
tains a tick (✓):
Note: The One Touch function will be switched off when-
ever you select a User Program.
Programming your own Tone selections
(Memorize)
The VA-76 also allows you to memorize your own
favorite Tones for the Upper1 and Upper2 parts in
case none of the four One Touch memories provide
the sounds you need.
Given the careful preparation of these selections, cus-
tomizing the Tone assignments may not be necessary
for the internal Music Styles. Yet they may come in
handy for Disk Link and Disk User Styles (see pages 60
and 61) for which there are no “presets”.
These customized One Touch settings are stored in a
special memory area inside the VA-76. Though they
are not part of the User Program parameters (because
User Programs and the One Touch facility are mutu-
ally exclusive), they will be saved to disk whenever you
use the Save User Program Set function (see
page 211).
