Each time the function key is pressed, the text display will present the next function of the group. Each function contains
from one to four parameters which may be changed with the corresponding control slider. Many of these parameters have
a large number of possible values. In order to allow easy access, the values are divided into several groups. Adjacent groups
of values are selected by moving the slider to the top or bottom end of its travel. To return to a previous group of values,
reverse the direction of slider motion.
While in Edit Mode, some SL-2001 functions are disabled to prevent interference with programming procedures. MIDI con-
trol functions programmed for the four control sliders or the Star and Alpha switch are active only during Perform Mode. SL-
2001 preset changes (from any source) are also inhibited in Edit Mode.

FUNCTION TYPES

There are four categories of functions in the SL-2001. The categories are based on the programmability of the function.
NON-PROGRAMMABLE (function group 1): These functions are not programmable. They are utility functions used to per-
form special operations that are occasionally needed, such as storing all presets to the memory card, or displaying MIDI data
entering the SL-2001. When any function in this group is accessed, the Preset Digits turn off, indicating that the function is
not associated with any particular SL-2001 preset. A complete description of the utility functions appears in section 5.
GLOBAL-PROGRAMMABLE (function group 2): Functions in this category have parameters that are globally programmable,
which means that there is only one set of values stored in memory. These values are not dependent on the preset that is
selected; they are the same for all presets. All global-programmable parameter values are stored permanently in memory,
even if power to the SL-2001 is switched off. Any time a Global-programmable parameter is changed, the new value is auto-
matically saved in memory. The new value will remain in memory until edited again. There is no need to use the STORE
switch to save Global settings; any changes are automatically updated.
The five-character names assigned to the MIDI devices in the system are examples of global-programmable parameters; there
is only one set of names which remains the same for all presets. Any time that a Global function is accessed, the Preset Digits
turn off to indicate that the function is not associated with any specific SL-2001 preset. A complete description of Global-pro-
grammable functions appears in section 6.
PRESET-PROGRAMMABLE (function group 3): These functions contain parameters which can have different values for each
SL-2001 preset. Any change in a Preset-programmable function must be stored into a preset location with the STORE switch.
The Preset Name is an example of a Preset-programmable function. A different name may be entered for every SL-2001 pre-
set. When any Preset-programmable function is accessed, the Preset Digits indicate which preset is being modified. A com-
plete description of all Preset-programmable functions appears in section 7.
ZONE-PROGRAMMABLE (function groups 4 through 8): These functions contain parameters that are different for each zone
(as well as each preset). This means that every SL-2001 preset contains eight sets of parameters, one set for each of the eight
zones. When editing these functions, you must choose a particular zone within the particular preset. The zone digit(s) will
appear whenever a zone-programmable function is selected. To change the zone, use the left or right arrow switch. The
Store function must be used to save any changes in zone parameters.
The MIDI delay setting is an example of a zone-programmable function. For every preset, each of the eight zones may be
programmed for a different delay time (0 to 10 seconds). A complete description of all zone-programmable functions appears
in section 8.

EDITING A PRESET

To edit an existing preset, enter Edit Mode and select the desired edit screen with the appropriate FUNCTION switch. As an
example, we will use the first screen of function group 4 (ZONE).In this example of an Edit Mode display, there are four
Vol#1
parameters shown. The current value of each parameter appears below the parameter name, and may be changed with the
corresponding control slider (while in Edit Mode, any MIDI control functions assigned to a control slider are disabled). The
zone digit is present because these functions are zone-programmable (when editing a zone-programmable function, be sure
that the correct number is displayed or the wrong zone may be inadvertently changed).
There is a Star on the third parameter of this screen. The Star is used in several functions to indicate that there is an alter-
nate screen which can be accessed by pressing the Star switch. The alternate screen contains additional parameters that are
related to the main screen but which are not always used. To get back to the main screen press the Star switch again. While
in Edit Mode, any MIDI control functions assigned to the Star switch are disabled.
The Alpha switch is also used in Edit Mode, usually to initiate special operations like memory load or save. Its function will
be designated on the screen where it is used. While in Edit Mode, any MIDI control functions assigned to the Alpha switch
are disabled.

CREATING NEW PRESETS

Creating an entirely new preset requires three steps: configure the zones, program each zone, and program any desired mis-
cellaneous Preset-programmable functions. The specific details of zone functions and miscellaneous preset functions is cov-
ered in reference sections 7 and 8. After learning how to create basic presets in this section, scan sections 7 and 8 to become
familiar with the many powerful functions available, and consult specific explanations as needed. Before any presets are cre-
ated, all devices used in the MIDI system must be designated by a five-character name and entered into the SL-2001's device
list. The MIDI port and channel associated with each device is also entered.

DEVICE INSTALLATION

The DEVICES screen is used to enter the name and description of all MIDI devices in the system. This information should
be entered into the SL-2001 before any new presets are created. For every device in the system, the SL-2001 must know the
port to which it has been connected and the MIDI channel on which the device is transmitting or receiving. SL-2001 presets
are then easily created by referring to the device name only; the port and channel are implied by the name and need not be
displayed.
