The Touchstrip is a bi-directional controller which is normally connected to

control pitch. It can, however, be patched in to any modulation destination

in the Cords section of the Preset Edit menu. The Touchstrip is referred to

and programmed as “Pitch Wheel” in the Cords menu. See page 228.

Simply slide your ﬁnger along the touchstrip while playing the keypads to

hear pitch bend. There is a slight “dead band” in the very center of the strip

to facilitate starting on pitch. You can press anywhere along the strip and

the pitch will instantly jump to that setting. When you release your ﬁnger,

the pitch will jump back to normal.

Touchstrip Hold The Touchstrip Hold button holds the pitch at the position last touched so

that it doesn’t jump back to center when released. The LED in the button

illuminates when this function is on.

Transpose Buttons These buttons transpose the current range of the rubber keyboard up and

down in one octave intervals. The LEDs on either side of the transpose

buttons show the currently selected range. With no LEDs illuminated, the

keyboard is in its normal range, Middle C to High C (60-72). Each LED to

the right of the buttons stands for one octave up. Each LED to the left of

the buttons stands for one octave down.

Rubber Keypads The velocity and pressure-sensitive keypads can play on any MIDI channel

as programmed in the Controllers menu. They are normally set to play on

the “Basic” channel, which means that they play the preset currently

showing in the preset view screen. The keypads output channel (mono)

pressure internally (routed in the PatchCords) and both channel and

polyphonic pressure over MIDI.

Glide Button This button turns Glide (portamento) on or off for the current preset. The

LED in the button illuminates when Glide is turned on in the current

preset. See Glide on page 218.
