Introduction MainFeatures 1-1 Chapter 1 Introduction Cong ratulations on your purc hase of a Kurzw eil SP4! This manual will help you get acquainted with your new instrument. Be sure to keep the manual on hand as y ou continue to familiarize y ourself with the features and functions of the SP4.
Introduction StayingCurrent 1-2 • an assignable control knob , which can control a parameter of your c hoosing • on the rear panel, tw o jacks for optional pedal controllers: one for a switc h pedal and the other for a continuous controller pedal.
Getting Started BeforeY ouStart… 2-1 Chapter 2 Getting Started This chapter will help you hook up y our SP4 to your sound system and MIDI system. If hooking up new gear is familiar to you, then simply read the following tw o sections in this chapter .
Getting Started StartUpDetails:TheRearPanel 2-2 Use Y our SP4 1. P ower up y our SP4 first, and then raise the MASTER V OLUME slider . T he SP4 starts up in Prog ram mode by default. Press one of the Function buttons to the left of the display to switc h Modes .
Getting Started ConnectingthePowerCable(LineCord) 2-3 The jack will also accept a dual switch pedal having a single stereo plug that is a v ailable separately (Kurzweil KFP-2S). F or more infor mation on connecting pedals , see Connecting Pedals on page 2-5 .
Getting Started ConnectingtoY our AudioSystem 2-4 Connecting to Y our Audio System After you’v e turned down the lev el on your sound system, connect the SP4’ s analog audio outputs to your sound system using a pair of stereo or mono audio cables.
Getting Started ConnectingPedals 2-5 Connecting Pedals Plug your switc h or continuous pedals into the corresponding jacks on the SP4’ s rear panel.
Getting Started ConnectingMIDI 2-6 Connecting a Switch Pedal When plug g ed into the FOOTSW jack on the rear -panel, a single switc h pedal will, by default, act like a sustain pedal. Of course this can be changed by prog ramming, as described in Setup Mode on page 7-1 .
Getting Started ConnectingMIDI 2-7 Connecting MIDI In addition to being a perfor mance-suited musical instr ument, the SP4 is a po werful, but intuitiv e and easy-to-use MIDI controller .
Getting Started ConnectingMIDI 2-8 Using the SP4 as the controller , connect the MIDI OUT port to the MIDI IN por t of the first module, and then connect that module’ s MIDI THRU port to the input of the next module, and so on, until the last module is connected.
Features of the SP4 TheFrontPanel 3-1 Chapter 3 Features of the SP4 This chapter will help you familiarize y ourself with the features of the SP4. Many of these features hav e both general functions and Mode-specific functions . F or more in-de pth descriptions of these features , refer to the chapters on the indi vidual Modes .
Features of the SP4 PitchandModWheels 3-2 Pitch and Mod Wheels Pitch Wheel The pitch wheel is the left most of the tw o wheels . It is spring-loaded, suc h that its center position is restored when it is not being used. That is because the pitch wheel is used for pitch-bending notes—its “off ” position is in the center .
Features of the SP4 FunctionButtons 3-3 Program Button Pressing the Program button will take y ou into Prog ram Mode (described in The Operating Modes on page 5-1 and, in further detail, in Program Mode on page 6-1 ). In Prog ram Mode , you can select and play different sounds (or “Programs”).
