Coker Posted August 3, 2018 Author Share Posted August 3, 2018 In the IOS editor there is a setting within the Multi editing mode for notemap = constant. Maybe that does it. You can download the editor and use it without an SP6 attached just to check it out. Quote CA93, MODX8, YC88, K8.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeffw_00 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 What is your goto lead electric guitar patch? I don't see an obvious one in the SP6 set, and the PC3 set is a little daunting to audition - thanks!

Dave Weiser Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I just left a little gift for any/all SP6 owners over at the SP6 Facebook Users Group, a small set of factory sounds from PC3/KORE, loaded into and saved in my Forte (I think that might make them a tad more SP6-friendly). Stuff that I've seen requested recently. Includes 3 lead guitars, one 12 string and a solo tenor sax. They come from PC3 to Forte... so they might come up in a weird state, might require some knob tweaking or param re-assignments. Note the leads all used mono pressure on PC3 by default for vibrato and I didn't have time to reassign it to the many layers in each program. (And the modwheel is already occupied with wah or feedback.) Still hoping you guys might have some fun with these even without aftertouch.

A nice system enhancement for the SP6 would be additional options on the CC Pedal Page to allow the pedal to send Aftertouch or Mod Wheel not just for this reason of imported programs (or use as a MIDI controller for something that expects aftertouch) but also so even mod wheel effects could be in invoked when you don't have a hand free.

Chris47 Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 So have spent a week with my new SP6, and pretty happy with it, particularly the PC3 sound set I've loaded. Can anyone tell me how to change leslie speed on the PC3 organ sounds? How can I assign leslie speed to the variation button, or a pedal? Thanks in anticipation.

I'm sure if I dug into the SP6 I could get the Leslie assigned to the pedal or switch but if someone has done this already that would be great.... it shouldn't be to difficult.

stoken6 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I'm hoping the other manufacturers will follow suit and launch 7x's of their own. (Casio, with your 5-pin MIDI socket - I'm looking at you...) Cheers, Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coker Posted August 10, 2018 Author Share Posted August 10, 2018 I keep getting blown away by this thing. I found the stock dual Leslie speaker effect for B3s to have a little too much variation in volume during a rotation. Using the SP6 sound editor, I found what must be at least 50 different Leslie insert effects, which seem to be different combinations of Leslie speaker models, amounts of overdrive, EQing, speeds, etc. Wow! I now have about six different Leslie inserts that will work for me. What a fantastic keyboard! Quote CA93, MODX8, YC88, K8.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mildbill Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Probably the wrong thread for this, but I have a couple thoughts about Kurzweil (whining - ha ha). For my own preferences, Kurzweil seems to be going in the wrong direction. I had a K2600, and I consider that their pinnacle. By this, I mean they are adding things like streaming, and following the trend of more sound/patch material, and taking away the things that I consider are more important. The new keyboards no longer have a ribbon or breath control input, they have less audio outputs, and control pedal inputs. Some don't have aftertouch or a sequencer either. My ideal keyboard would have the dual ribbons and breath control input, the nine sliders accompanied by nine knobs, and the setup controller capabilities of the the K series. Yes - I know - maybe I should have kept the 2600. If it were about 1/3 the weight, I probably would have. As a non-gigging home hobbyist, I use a computer for most of my sounds, and a keyboard as my main controller. A gutted 2600, even without any sound producing capability, but with all the controller capability intact, along with a massive weight reduction program would find me in a buying position again. /whining sorry for the thread derail, but it feels good to get that off my chest.

jeffw_00 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Hi! Two questions: 1) has anyone found a shortcut to change the case of a character when naming a patch? 2) Has anyone been programming a multi and experienced the transpose value of a layer changing when you went to a different screen within the edit function?

jeffw_00 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 1) thanks - i'll try to get some input to the developers. 2) According to the SP-6 FB page, this is a known issue already reported.

jeffw_00 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Did anyone else think that the sustain pedal that shipped with the SP-6 was particularly hard to press down- does it loosen up?

Coker Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 If the pedal moves freely but is hard to press, then that sounds like spring compression or tension, which will probably not loosen up unless the springs are really cheap.

Ken Beaumont Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Yes, I don't use it. I replaced it with a Korg 1/2 damper pedal (DS-1H).

Frank BFB Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Does anyone know how to program/assign the FX1 and FX2 knobs? Is there a possibility, when you are editing a sound, to compare the editted sound with the original one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Beaumont Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 On page 3-1 of the manual it tells how to edit the knob assignments. As for comparing, save it as a new program in an unused memory location. Then you can switch back and forth and if not quite right edit it some more. Chapter 3 Program Edit Mode Program Edit Mode allows you to edit and customize Programs. Any Program can be edited in Program Edit Mode and saved to one of the 1024 User IDs. To enter Program Edit Mode, first press the PROGRAMMode button to enter Program Mode, then press the EDIT button. In Program Edit Mode, the top line of the display shows the current pagename and number. Navigate to each page by using the CHANNEL/PAGE buttons. Navigate to each parameter on the current page by using the PREVIOUS and NEXT buttons. Change the value of the selected parameter by using the ALPHA WHEEL, or use the keypad function of the CATEGORY buttons to type a numeric value followed by pressing the ENTER button. Assignable Params Page Use the Assignable Params Page to view and edit the 4 user assignable parameters of the knobs (P1 through P4). The left column shows the name of the parameter assigned to each of the 4 knobs. The right column shows the current value of each parameter. Parameter Column When the Parameter column is selected with the cursor, change the parameter assignment for the selected knob by using the ALPHA WHEEL.
