5 The pRP6 Presets The pRP6 contains 32 Internal Presets, consisting of Single, Layered and Split sound combinations. Each sound combination of the Presets recalls an appropriate configuration of effects (Reverb and Chorus) together with Volume and Balance settings.
6 The functions of the pRP6 pRP6 features 6 functions which affect the instrument in various ways. The Functions are activated using the last 6 notes of the highest keys of the keyboard. To activate a function and modify its value, hold down the corresponding key and press the DATA m / n buttons.
7 T ouch sensitivity If the keyboard of you r pRP6 is too “hard” or “soft”, you may want to modify the touch sensitivity. Your pRP6 has a touch sensitive keyboard; in other words, the keyboard behaves just as in a traditional piano: the harder you play, the louder the sound.
8 T ranspose The TRANSPOSE function allows you to quickly change the overall pitch of the instrument, raising or lowering it in steps of one semitone at a time (max. +/– 12 semitones). The transposition applied remains in memory until changed again, or until the instrument is turned off.
9 T une The TUNE function allows you fine tune the instrument. The tuning can vary between 427.5 Hz and 452.5 Hz (corresponding to an excursion of approx. one semitone) in steps of +/– 0.5 Hz. The default status of the instrument corresponds the equal standard A = 440 Hz.
10 MIDI Channel pRP6 is able to transmit MIDI messages on up to three channels, depending on the type of Preset recalled (single, layer or split). In reception, pRP6 can receive on all 16 MIDI channels.
11 Midi Local If you are using your pRP6 via MIDI as a controlling device connected to an external sound generator (expander, keyboard, etc.), when you play, you will hear the expander’s sounds together with the pRP6 Sounds.
12 Midi Common channel The Common channel is a special channel that allows you to control other MIDI devices that have automatic arrangements. The Midi Common function does not play a reference note during the setting operation. 1 Press and hold the MIDI Common function key (G7) and press the DATA m button to set the Common channel to ON.
13 About MIDI MIDI, the abbreviation for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface”, is a world standard interface that allows MIDI compatible instruments and other equip- ment to communicate with each other, in order to exchange data and control one another.
14 Another drumkit is also in Bank 4. These sounds and sound banks can only be selected via MIDI, not from the pRP6 control panel. To select these sounds via MIDI, you would have to send a Midi message to the pRP6 consisting of two parts: ControlChange/Bank Select (CC00-BankSelect) followed by a Program Change (PC).
15 MIDI Applications The following explains how your pRP6 can be used in the most common MIDI setups suited to this instrument: a) as a MIDI controlling device (Master); b) as a tone generator (in other words, a Slave); c) for MIDI sequence recording.
16 Panel Reset pRP6 offers a Panel Reset function which allows you to restore the factory settings without turning the instrument off. For example, if you have changed some parameters, such as the MIDI channels, the tuning, the velocity curves, etc.
