8 About Performance Presets

Suggested Uses for Performance Presets

The most obvious use for performance presets is to have instant access to different combinations

of instruments selected, stacked, and mixed in various ways. Here are some other possibilities:

• Easier access to patch select variations. Suppose you have selected the piano sound and

“locked in” some patch variation (by holding down the desired combination of patch select

buttons, and then pressing an Instrument•Sequence Track button). By creating a preset

while the alternate patch is “locked in,” you can later return to that sound just by selecting the

preset.

• Controlling remote MIDI devices. Suppose you have created one or more MIDI instruments

for sequencing remote MIDI devices from the ASR-10. Each performance preset can store a

different MIDI OUT PROGRAM number, VOLUME setting, INST (key) RANGE and XPOS

(transpose) amount for each of those remote MIDI devices. When you select a preset, each

instrument that has a status of MIDI or BOTH (SEND KEYS TO= on the Edit/Instrument

page) will transmit a program change and MIDI volume message on its designated MIDI OUT

CHANNEL (assuming TRANSMIT ON = INST CHAN on the Edit/System•MIDI page) to the

appropriate remote device. Performance presets let you store up to eight totally different

configurations. This allows you to easily recall stacks and combinations of remote MIDI

devices.

Performance Tip — Creating Keyboard Splits

One of the most common uses of presets is a keyboard split, in which your left hand plays an

“accompaniment” sound and your right hand plays a “solo” sound. This is easy to set up on the

ASR-10 by stacking the two sounds and assigning them different INST (key) RANGES. You can

save this arrangement as a preset so that any time you select that preset, you’ll recall the

keyboard split. In fact, using this method you can create up to eight split points across the

keyboard.

Since each Instrument•Sequence Track in the keyboard split has its own XPOS (transpose)

value, you are not limited to bass notes on the piano just because it’s on the bottom of the

keyboard. On the Edit/Instrument page, set the INST (key) RANGE to the keys you want to play

and then transpose the sound up or down until it’s playing in the range you want.
