Playing patches:
Use the dial on the right hand of the remote for selecting patches.
If you happen to start an automatic backing track and you want to stop it press and hold the joystick on the left
hand for 2 seconds [Escape].
You can change banks by going to the left to [BnkNo] (= bank number). Press [OK] and select another bank
for channel 01 after selecting the parameter on the right with the joystick (to the right) or button 3 or 4.
Banks for wind controllers have "...WC..." in the name while banks named "...KB..." are for keyboards and
might not work very well with a wind controller ...
The most important patches are in the Factory1 bank.
If you want to edit patches in [Edit] mode you need to store them to a user bank (e.g. User1 or 9). You might
want to copy Factory1 to the User1 bank in this case first. Please check the manual for how to do this.
Once you have tested a little we should skype or email so I could give you some more information on e.g.
setting up extra controllers.
In case you want to add pedals or foot switches: The pedal polarity is set up for Yamaha or Korg pedals. Foot
switches should be closing (no latching) - otherwise the polarity can be reversed in [Utility].
You can check incoming MIDI and pedals in [Utility] then go 7x to the left until "MIDI Monitor". Filter specific
data being displayed by using the dial on the right hand.
Always exit with [Escape] (pressing onto the dial for 2 seconds).

To get an idea about playing some of the chord mapper presets (e.g. F1-73 "Moonlight serenade" + F1-74 "In
The Mood") please look up the example sheet music here:

Troubleshooting:
To check the audio connection play the demo songs:
- Move the joystick briefly to the left twice until "Demo" is flashing.
- Press briefly onto the joystick for [OK]. The demo songs will start playing. You should hear something now.
If no sound is audible from the first stereo out try another stereo output.
- Stop the demos by pressing and holding the joystick for 2 seconds (= [Escape]).
To check to MIDI connection watch the 2nd and 3rd line of the display:
- You should see pitchbend (line 2) and your breath dynamic (line 3).
More advanced - use the MIDI-Monitor:
- Move the joystick briefly to the left once until "Util" (Utility) is flashing.
- Press briefly onto the joystick for [OK]. You will now enter [Utility].
- Move the joystick 7x to the left until "MIDI-Monitor" is flashing.
- You should be able to see the incoming MIDI data. Ch01 is input1, Ch17 is input2 (front), Ch33 is USB.
- Return to the main screen by pressing and holding the joystick for 2 seconds (= [Escape]).
If you are experiencing problems on either one press and hold onto the joystick for 5 seconds until you see
" R E S E T ". This will reset the audio and MIDI interfaces.
If you need a mono output instead of a stereo out:
- Move the joystick 4x briefly to the right until "Glob" (Global) is flashing.
- Press briefly onto the joystick for [OK]. You will enter [Global] mode to set the global settings for the unit.
- Press onto the joystick for [OK] and then briefly move it to the left to "Out1 Mono-Stereo Settings".
- Set it to "mono" with the dial on the right hand of the remote or by moving the joystick up briefly.
- Return to the main screen by pressing and holding the joystick for 2 seconds (= [Escape]).
