(2) Use a Single Part page
Single Part pages contain all available Mixer parame-
ters for the currently selected part. A typical Single
Part page looks like this:
Here, you need to proceed as follows:
1. Select one of the VA-76’s Mixer pages (see a~c on
page 112).
2. Select the Mixer group that contains the part whose
settings you want to change by pressing the [Keybrd
Mixer] or [Style Mixer] field.
3. If the [Single Part] field is displayed in the upper
left corner, press it.
4. Use the [i][m] fields to select the desired part.
5. Select the desired parameter by pressing the
[Delay], [Chorus], [Reverb], [PanPot] or [Volume]
field.
6. Edit the selected parameter in one of the following
ways:
a) Use the slider to the right of the parameters —or—
b) Press the field of the parameter whose setting you
wish to change and use the [TEMPO/DATA] dial, or
the [DATA] button/Numeric Entry pad (see page 49).
Note: The Equalizer and Insertion M-FX parameters can
only be set on Single Part pages.
About the Audio In part
The Audio In part has a special place among the “Key-
board parts”. That’s because it is not really a Keyboard
part: it allows you to mix your live vocals with the
music played by the VA-76.
This explains why it has two pages to itself (a Single
Part and a Palette page). Choose whichever is more
convenient for you. See page 58 for details.
8.2 Volume and pan
Global Volume
1. Press the [Mixer] field in the display.
2. If necessary, press the [Global Volume] field:
Note: We strongly recommend that you first assign the
Tones you need to the parts you intend to play because the
character of the sounds you use affects the balance. Thus, a
trumpet sound will be perceived louder than a flute because
the former contains more harmonics (overtones).
The sliders on this page are group sliders that allow
you to set the volume of several parts at once:
Drum— Refers to the volume of the ADrums (ADR)
and MDrums parts (MDR). With this slider, you thus
affect the volume of two parts.
Bass— Refers to the A Bass (Music Style bass) and the
MBS (Manual Bass) parts.
Accomp— Refers to the AC1~AC6 parts of the Arran-
ger. These are the melodic accompaniment parts.
Lower— Refers to the LW1 and LW2 parts.
Upper— Refers to the UP1, UP2, VariPhrase, Audio
In, and MEL INT parts.
As the name implies, you could use this page for glo-
bal changes to the volume.
3. Press the name of the VA-76 part section whose vol-
ume you wish to change.
In the above illustration, the Upper slider (group) has
been selected.
4. Set the desired volume in one of the following ways:
• Using the on-screen slider;
• With the [TEMPO/DATA] dial;
• By pressing the [DATA] button and using the Numeric
Pad (see page 49).
Means that you are on a Single Part page
Palette page Single Part page
If you only need to change the balance between the
Arranger (or Song) and Keyboard parts, using the
[BALANCE] knob on the front panel is even more
convenient.
