♦ The playing sequence of sequential KEY1 is:
Group 1-1 → Group 1-2 → Group 1-3 ..... →
Group 1-N (the last group) → Group 1-1 .....
♦ The playing sequence of random KEY1 is:
Group 1-3 → Group 1-5 ..... → Group 1-N →
Group 1-3 → Group 1-5 .....
That KEY1 functions as a random key is a
special case of sequential key, which combines
a particular arrangement of sub-group play-
ing sequence.
♦ Reset of KEY1 playing sequence
If a sub-group of KEY1 group is being played
and one of KEY2~KEY8 is triggered, the
playing sub-group will be terminated, and
the newly triggered key group come is played
instead. The first sub-group will start play-
ing by retriggering KEY1. In other words,
the KEY1 playing sequence is reset when-
ever a key other than KEY1 is triggered (see
Figure 1).
♦ Sub-group selection
When KEY1 is triggered with pulses, a de-
sired sub-group can be selected by controlling
its corresponding pulse number. However, the
features of KEY1 have to be set in the follow-
ing ways:
– sequential or random
– retriggerable
– minimum key debounce time
(≅700µs, fOSC=96kHz)
For instance, if sub-group 1-3 is the previous
playing group, sub-group 1-5 will start playing
after 2 pulses are applied to KEY1, and so on.
To make selection of KEY1 sub-groups more
easily, one of KEY2~KEY8 should be pro-
grammed as silence. Then this silence key has
to be triggered to reset KEY1. By so doing, the
playing sub-group of KEY1 is directly speci-
fied by the pulse number applied to KEY1 (see
Figure 2).
• KEY8 as a stop key (by mask option)
When KEY8 functions as a stop key, any voice
output can be stopped by pressing KEY8.
• KEY1~KEY7 as a repeat key
KEY1~KEY7 all function as repeat key if one
of the seven keys is set as a repeat key. In
other words, once the mode of one of
KEY1~KEY7 is determined, the remaining
six keys are set accordingly.
As a repeat key, the sections included can be
played sequentially and repeatedly till other
key input is triggered. KEY8 has no other
choice but functions as a stop key when
KEY1~KEY7 are set as repeat keys.
