Try Out the Voices —————————————————————————
Move the cursor to the voice number immediately below “TR1” on
the display (as in the display shown to the left). Note that the name of
the voice currently assigned to TR1 appears in the upper right corner
of the display. Play the micro keyboard and you’ll hear that voice.
DETAIL
In any QY20 mode, the micro keyboard plays the voice assigned to the
currently selected track. A MIDI keyboard connected to the MIDI IN con-
nector, however, will only play the voice assigned to the track that re-
ceives on the MIDI channel that the external keyboard is transmitting on:
MIDI channel 1 plays TR1, channel 2 plays TR2, channel 3 plays TR3,
channel 4 plays TR4, channel 5 plays C1, channel 6 plays C2, channel 7
plays Ba, and channel 10 plays Dr. Channel 10 also plays any other track
to which a drum voice (Dr1 through Dr8) is assigned.
Use the
[
+1/YES
]
key to step through the QY20’s 100 voices (you
can use the
[
1/NO
]
key to step backward, too), trying out each voice
on the keyboard.
Keep incrementing past voice number 100 and you’ll select drum
kits 1 through 8 (“Dr1” through “Dr8” on the display). Try these out
on the keyboard, too.
DETAIL
See the Appendix (page 174) for a complete list of note assignments (i.e.
which drum instruments are assigned to which notes) for all 8 drum kits.
HINT
If youre playing the micro keyboard, use the octave keys to access the
full range of instruments in each drum kit.
