Setup is typically performed by the technician when the system was installed and you will seldom need to access
the setup menu. Once Chili is installed on your piano it is a good idea to adjust the settings to your preferences.
This setup determines how Chili will control the piano, will detect any accessories attached to the piano, performs
various tests to align the system with your piano, and stores your favorite settings. The following pages explain
the setup menu, and the various available options.
Press the Setup Button and the following
options are displayed. Turn the data dial
or use the left and right buttons to scroll
through the options. The word/options
move to the left and the first word on the
left of your screen's second line is the
menu item that can be selected. Pressing
enter will access that options menu screen.
Presets allows
you to set
favorite
settings for
easy recall
later. For
example, if you
like a certain
volume or
system setup, it
can be stored
for future use
without having
to go through a
manual setup
again. Factory
defaults can
also be found
here.
Default allows
you to set how
the speaker
and piano
volumes will
track each
other. It sets
MIDI defaults
for delay and
Piano Types.
Default also
allows you to
set up
playback to be
auto start,
shuffle and/or
repeat.
Record Strip allows
you to tell the unit
that the MIDI input is
occupied by a record
strip and not by
another source. This
eliminates a loop
that may occur when
a note is played,
recorded and played
back. It contains the
setup for quick
record and advanced
record features of
the unit. It also
contains the routine
to align your record
system for “What
you hear is what you
get played back”.
MIDI Merge takes
care of a MIDI
input occurring at
the same time
that a Floppy’s
MIDI file is
playing. The two
files will be
merged. If this is
not desirable, turn
it off and any
incoming MIDI file
will be ignored.
This is good if
there are many
sources
constantly
inputting music.
AMI Out is
set to on
when the
unit is not
attached to
the
Pianomation
MIDI
system,
and/or you
are
recording to
an analog
source
where you
will require
the AMI out
port on the
back of the
unit.

EACH WORD (not set of words) on the
second line is an option you can select.
Turning the dial simply shifts the words in the
line left or right. When the word representing
the option you would like is the first word on
the left, pushing enter will go to that word/
option’s submenu.
Microphone: If there is a
microphone on the
soundboard of your piano,
and you would like to mix that
sound with the background
music you would need to set
the Microphone to on.
Version: Tells
you the software
levels of your
operating
systems.
Layering al-
lows you to
hear up to 16
sounds at one
time while play-
ing a piano with
a record strip
attached. If
layering is
turned on while
recording you
can record up
to 16 different
instruments at
one time each
going to their
own track.
