B i SP Made Easy This guide walks you step-by-step through a variety of typical programming applications you might use in the creation of Setups on the Stage Piano. All the following information applies identically to the SP76, SP88, and SP88X, so we refer to the instrument simply as the SP. [. . . ] Since we are making a split, try selecting a bass sound for the zone playing your external module. To create your split, you are going to limit the note ranges for each zone. At this point, you should have a piano on the "left" zone and a bass sound on your "right" zone. Since you can actually set each zone to any range of keys that you want, the "left" and "right" designations don't really mean anything - we are going to end up with the "left" zone on the right side of the keyboard and the "right" zone on the left side of the keyboard. You might find it easier to simply think of the two zones as Zone 1 and Zone 2. If the first column is not already selected, press the Column Select button until it is. (Remember that this "Left" zone is actually going to be playing the right side of the keyboard. ) Since this zone is playing the piano, we will set it to start playing at the A below Middle C. Middle C is note number 60, so we will set the value to 57 (three half steps below Middle C). The display should show the lowest key number on your keyboard (28 for 76 note keyboards, 21 for 88 note keyboards). Since you want the bass sound to play down to lowest note, we won't change this. Next, press the Row Select Button once to choose Key Range Hi (LED blinking). If you want to use a pedal for volume control, you will need to program that parameter for controller #7, similar to how we programmed the A ribbon for volume in the previous tutorial. If you only want to use the pedal to control one of your zones, press Edit till you have selected the zone you want. If you want to have the pedal control both zones, then select the other zone and repeat assigning it to #7. Keep in mind that unless you previously changed it, you still have the Control Slider assigned to Volume. Although it is possible to have both the slider and pedal assigned to volume in a Setup, you might find this confusing, since moving one controller would override any setting you had previously chosen with the other controller. If you don' want the Slider to control volume, then press Row Select until Control Slider is selected (LED solid) and set it to Off. What if you want to have the Pedal control Volume when in Internal Voices Mode. You can easily do this - j ust start in Internal Voice Mode, change the Control pedal parameter to Volume as described above, then customize the Internal Voice, as described in tutorial #7. 11 SP Made Easy 6. Transposing a Zone If you have created a split in a Setup, you might find that the notes assigned to a zone don't play in the octave that you need to be playing in. Or you might be playing with a singer who needs to have a song in a different key, but you don't know how to play the song in that key. The solution for either of these problems is to transpose one or more zones in your Setup. [. . . ] A simple way to test to make some easy change and send the dump back to make sure it is received correctly. For example, you can dump the memory, then change one parameter in a single Setup. Then dump the Setup back to see if it changes back to the original value. DonÕt forget that you have to call up the Setup after dumping it back in. 21 SP Made Easy ADDITIONAL INFORMATION A Note About the Physical Controllers The tutorials above specify that you select a particular physical controller.
