Getting started
A round trip of the front panel of your Sirius:
The individual control panels on the front panel of the Sirius are clearly divided. The following dia-
gram gives you an overview of the most important functions of the Sirius.
The elements and sections in detail:
The Keyboard:
As the diagram above is only a rough guide we would like to briefly introduce the individual ele-
ments and sections separately . A detailed description of the grouped functions like the Vocoder, the
Sequencer or the Synthesizer can be found in the relevant chapters in this manual.
The Keyboard is mainly used to play notes on the synthesizer. You also have the possibility to mute
individual tracks and to transpose a whole pattern (changing the overall musical Key of the pattern).
These functions are available on the first two octaves of the Keyboard.
