Keymap and Sample Editing
The Keymap Editor
9-8
ASSIGN
The ASSIGN soft button lets you select a sample, then specify the key range to which it’s
assigned. This enables you to insert a new key range within the current keymap. When you
press the ASSIGN soft button, a dialog appears that prompts you to select a sample from the
Samples list. Scroll through the list, then press the OK soft button. You’ll then be prompted
to define the new key range by playing the notes you want to be the lowest and highest notes
of the range. (Press the Cancel soft button if you change your mind.) When you trigger the
low and high notes, the new key range is inserted. If the new key range partially overlaps an
adjacent key range, the existing key range will be adjusted to accommodate the new range.
If the new key range completely overlaps an existing key range, the original key range will be
replaced.
DELETE
Press the DELETE soft button to delete the current Keymap (factory Keymaps can not be
deleted).
