SINGLE, DUAL AND SPLIT keyboard modes

First, press MS1. (This switch has been assigned to SINGLE,

from now on abbreviated to MS1 = SINGLE.) The keyboard

is now in SINGLE mode. Notice the LED is now indicating

SINGLE. This means that only one MIDI bank is active. If

you play the KX88 keyboard, sound will come from only

one tone generator module. Notice that only one of the

readouts is lit. This indicates which MIDI bank A or B is

being sent. To switch banks, press a program select or bank

switch in the other bank. If you press the bank switch of

the bank that is not being sent, that bank will now become

active, with the same voice program number it had before.

If you press a program select switch in the bank that is not

being sent, that bank will become active, and the voice pro-

gram will change to the number you have just pressed.

If you press MS2, you will return to DUAL mode. (MS2 has

been preset to DUAL, ie. MS2 = DUAL) When you play the

keyboard, both tone generators will sound, since both MlDI

banks are active.

There is one more keyboard mode, SPLIT. Press MS3.

(MS3 = SPLIT) The LED will indicate SPLIT. In SPLIT

mode, notes played on or below the split point will be sent

on MIDI bank A, and notes played above the split point

will be sent on MIDI bank B. If you press MS3 again while

you are in SPLIT mode, the upper readout will show SP

and the lower readout will show the current split point.

C3 Touch the keyboard where you want the new split

point to be, and the new split point will be displayed. A

decimal point indicates a sharp. (#)

SWAP Press MS4. (MS4 = SWAP)

This will interchange MIDI banks A and B. Notice that the

voice program numbers in the readout have traded places.

Now, MIDI bank A is channel 2, and B is channel 1. If you

SWAP while in SPLIT mode, the sound that you were play-

ing on the lower part of the keyboard will interchange with

the sound you were playing in the upper part.

MIDI CHANNEL Press MS5. (MS5 = MIDI CH)

The readouts will show the MIDI channel number for banks

A and B. (Later, we will learn how to change the channels.)

MONO/POLY Press TS1. (TS1 = MONO/POLY)

The TS1 LED indicator lights, and the sound generator is

now in MONO mode and will sound only the last note you

play. The TS1, 2 Toggle switches are of a different type

than the other front panel switches we have used so far.

TS1, 2 each have two functions, one when they are pressed

ON and one when they are pressed OFF. In this case, the

two assignments are TS1 = Mono, Poly.

PORTAMENTO ON/OFF, PORTAMENTO TIME,

LFO SPEED

Now press the other toggle switch, TS2.

(TS2 = Portamento ON, Portamento OFF) When the TS2

LED is on, portamento will apply to the keyboard. (Again,

all these settings can be applied to MIDI channels A and/or

B, as we will explain later on p. 14) If the portamento time

is too short, you will not be able to hear it. So, adjust the

portamento time. CS4 (continuous slider) has been assigned

to portamento time. (CS4 = portamento time) Move it up

and down to adjust the portamento time.

CS3 = LFO speed. Move it up and down to change the LFO

speed.

NOTE: LFO speed is a voice parameter, and the KX88 is

sending System Exclusive messages (Yamaha ID

number) to change them. If you are using other

companies' tone generator units, you will have to

change these parameters by assigning a Universal

Parameter. (see page 20.)

CS1 and CS2 have been assigned to VOLUME for

banks A and B. Move them and notice how the

volume of each tone generator changes.

Let's try the other controllers.

WI = Pitch Bender, W2 = Mod Wheel, After Touch = After

Touch, Breath Controller = Breath Controller, FC1 = Vol-

ume, FC2 = Foot Controller, FS1 = Sustain switch, and

FS2 = Portamento switch. All of these will affect the MIDI

tone generator or synthesizer in the normal way. For ex-

ample, if the DX7 function memory is set so that Foot

Controller Range is 99 and Foot Pitch is ON, then using the

FC2 connected to the KX88 will change the Pitch Modula-

tion of the DX7.

We have now finished our explanation of the way the KX88

has been set up at the factory. Before you go on to the next

chapter of this manual, spend some time becoming familiar

with the functions we have explained.
