same key twice) or the entire length of the KE YBO AR D by hitting the lowest and then the
highest key. The range can be any contiguous combination of notes in between the highest
and lowest note on the keyboard and completely independent and different for each zone. Y ou
can ovelap any amount of notes from ZO NE to ZO NE .
TRANSPOSE
Used to TR ANS PO S E the range of keys on a ZO NE up or down a specific amount of half steps
from middle C . Normally the "4" ZO NE S have a TR ANS PO S E value of "0". This means that the
middle C corresponds to the central middle "C " on the G rand S taff. (providing the stored patch
in your synthesizer module is set to the same value).
Let's say you want to transpose and raise the tone of a ZO NE by 4 semitones. E nter E DIT
mode, select the desired ZO NE to be edited, select the TR ANS PO S E function using the
UP/ DO W N keys. Now hit 4 on the numerical keypad and exit the E DIT mode. Let's say you wan-
ted to lower the tone by an octave. Follow the same procedure as above but instead of hit-
ting (4) on the 10 key keypad, first hit the minus key then enter 12 and exit E DIT mode. Y ou
can TR ANS PO S E a maximum of +/ - 24 semitones (or two octaves) by entering a positive or
negative number up to 24 (+ or -). P ositive values are entered by depressing the desired num-
ber keys and negative values are entered by first hitting the (-) key then the desired number
key(s).
SUST AIN
This FUNC TIO N allows you to enable or disable the S US T AIN PE DAL for each zone. For an exam-
ple, if you want to disable the S US T AIN PE DAL for ZO NE 2: W hile in the E DIT MO DE press
UP/ DO W N again to select the S US T AIN function. Now that S US T AIN is selected (LE D switched
on), press the ZO NE #2 button to select ZO NE 2 or editing and then O FF key which corresponds
to "E flat" on the numerical keypad. After that, all the other ZO NE S will be affected by the
S US T AIN PE DAL, while ZO NE no. 2 will be excluded. T o regain S US T AIN PE DAL control on the
excluded ZO NE , select E DIT , S US T AIN and then press O N.
An obvious application for this FUNC TIO N would be to disable the S ustain P edal on a ZO NE set
to the lower end of the KE YBO AR D that is set to a Bass patch. In addition, now use the other
ZO NE S to play a Piano or P ad/ S tring sound layer leaving the S US T AIN PE DAL functional for
them.
Hopefully you are starting to see even more of the possibilities now becoming available to you
using a S tudio Logic Master C ontroller. W ith just a bit of creative thought on your part you
should be coming up with interesting and useful patches for your own musical needs.
WHEELS
This FUNC TIO N allows the user to disable or enable the two W HE E LS for each of the four ZO NE S .
Again, as an example, if you wanted to disable the two W HE E LS for ZO NE 1: enter the E DIT
mode, select ZO NE 1 for editing (pressing ZO NE 1 button), now use the UP/ DO W N buttons to
scroll to the W HE E LS parameter selection (making sure its corresponding LE D is lit,) then
select the O FF key (corresponding to middle E b on the keyboard.) Now exit the E DIT mode by
depressing the E NTE R / E DIT button. W ith this edit all the other ZO NE S will be affected by the
W HE E LS while ZO NE 1 will be excluded. T o reverse this edit follow the same instructions as
above but instead select the O N button on the keyboard (corresponding to middle Db on the
keyboard.)
A possible application for this feature would be to have a ZO NE or ZO NE S assigned to the lower
part of the keyboard set to sustaining or "P ad" sounds, with the top ends of these ZO NE S
ending somewhere in the middle of the keyboard, leaving room for a split above it.
P erhaps you can transpose the lower ZO NE S up an octave so that you would play chords on
the lower part of the keyboard but sounding in the middle range closer to middle "C ". Leave
the S US T AIN PE DAL enabled but disable the W HE E LS for this ZO NE or ZO NE S .
Now use remaining ZO NE S to create a layer using the upper unused remaining notes on the
keyboard. Assign this ZO NE or ZO NE S to a lead patch or patches, disable the S US T AIN PE DAL
for these ZO NE S but leave the W HE E LS enabled.
Now you can perform and hold down chords in the lower part of the keyboard using and hol-
ding down the S US T AIN PE DAL to "latch" the sustained chords.
Now, using both hands to play lead over the top, using the right hand to play melody and the
left to use the PIT C H and MO DULATIO N W HE E LS , R elease the S US T AIN pedal to change chords
then S US T AIN and "latch" again on the next chord and continue playing two handed leads over
the new chord.

AFTERTOUC H
This FUNC TIO N allows you to enable or disable the AFTE R T O UC H for each ZO NE . For an exam-
ple, if you want to disable the AFTE R T O UC H for zone 3: W hile in the E DIT mode select ZO NE 3
for editing then press UP/ DO W N buttons to scroll to and select the AFTE R T O UC H function..
Then press O FF key which corresponds to E flat on the numerical keypad. After that, all the
other ZO NE S will be affected by the AFTE R T O UC H while ZO NE no. 3 will be excluded. T o regain
AFTE R T O UC H control on the excluded ZO NE , select E DIT , AFTE R T O UC H and then press O N.
An application for this might be as follows: R efer to the patch set up from the preceding exam-
ple in the W HE E LS section above. In your lead patch in the right hand you may be using
AFTE R T O UC H for volume swells or vibrato modulation. W hile doing this you may find that unde-
sirable vibrato messages are being sent to your sustaining chords in the lower ZO NE S in this
patch. Use the AFTE R T O UC H disable feature in these lower ZO NE S to eliminate aftertouch mes-
sages from your lead performance being sent to your sustaining chords.
SHAPE
This function allows the user to change the dynamic curves which control the velocity respon-
ses for each of the four ZO NE S . This FUNC TIO N allows you to adapt your Master Keyboard
C ontroller to the dynamic response of your expander or external MIDI device. It also allows
you to adjust the keyboard's reaction to your specific touch. The S tudio Logic S L-760's S HAPE
FUNC TIO N offers you 8 different preset curves to select from, 4 positive and 4 negative. E ach
ZO NE can have its own S HAPE setting.
T o select a specific S HAPE for a ZO NE follow the normal E DIT operation. E nter E DIT mode,
select a desired ZO NE for editing by hitting its corresponding ZO NE switch. Now select edit
function S HAPE using the UP/ DO W N buttons and finally select 1,2,3 or 4 for S HAPE selection.
S electing a (-) before hitting the number will select an inverted version or NE G ATIVE S HAPE
of that curve. By negative shape we mean that the curve has an opposite affect with respect
to the touch. Therefore, a light touch brings about a high response and vice versa. This S HAPE
FUNC TIO N is useful when you have two different curves (one + and one -) on two ZO NE S , as
this results in a velocity crossfade effect. As one sound gets lower the other gets louder. S HAPE
(-) 1 corresponds to the inverted S HAPE 1, and so on.
S HAPE no. 1 has a linear response, which is compatible with most of the MIDI devices pre-
sent on the market. This is the default setting for each of the (3) ZO NE S .
S HAPE no. 2 has a less sensitive response, so it requires a stronger touch. This setting is use-
ful to gain a wider dynamic response. T ry this S HAPE on a Piano or E lectric Piano while playing
a ballad or softer piece of music for a more expressive feel to the keyboard. Y ou may also like
this setting while using the S L-760 to program Hi Hats or Drums into a sequencer, it makes it
easier to "pump" a part or vary the accents. It is also useful when the input MIDI device is
too sensitive and you want to lower the relative velocities being transmitted.
S HAPE no. 3 has a more sensitive response than S hape no. 1. Y ou will be able to transmit
higher velocities with a lighter touch. This S HAPE may be useful to you if you are playing a
R ock Piano or Honky-tonk Blues style and need to be heard over a loud band. This S HAPE sca-
les the relative velocities up.
S HAPE no. 4 has an even more sensitive response than S HAPE no. 3. Useful for removing some
or all of the dynamic response to the keyboard. Use it when you want to trigger S amples, Loops
or S ound FX easily so that they play at their maximum volume without having to hit the key
as hard.
VELOC ITY
The VE LO C ITY is similar in function and application to the S HAPE feature in that they are both
dynamic response settings for the keyboard and the MIDI velocity information that is tran-
smitted. The difference is that the VE LO C ITY parameter is a G LO BAL setting. W hile in E DIT
mode when you select VE LO C ITY , the LE D's for all 3 ZO NE S light up simultaneously indicating
you are changing a G LO BAL setting covering all three ZO NE S . W hile in the previous section you
could select a dynamic curve for each ZO NE , now you have 8 different curves that affect the
response of the entire keyboard. This VE LO C ITY parameter can help adapt your C ontroller
Keyboard to your MIDI modules and to your specific touch and feel preferences so as to give
you the most expressive control available.
T o select a VE LO C ITY curve enter the E DIT mode, use the UP/ DO W N buttons to select VE LO -
C ITY , then chose 1 through 8 on the 10 key keypad to select your VE LO C ITY setting. E xit E DIT
mode to play and audition each of these curves.
