12: SETTINGS AND INDICATORS
TEMPO CONTROL
The tempo of the accompaniment can be increased by pressing the upper button
and decreased by pressing the lower button. The current tempo setting, reported
in beats per minute, is displayed in the LED window. To change the tempo
quickly, keep the button depressed until the desired setting is reached. To return
to the default tempo, push both buttons simultaneously.
PITCH CHANGE
The normal pitch setting is A-440. Pitch can be adjusted up or down in 10 cent
increments to a maximum of a half step. The change from A-440 is displayed in
the LED window only while the pitch buttons are being pressed. After releasing
the pitch buttons, the LED will revert back to the tempo marking after about three
seconds. When the pitch is changed from A-440, the pitch indicator light will stay
lit. To return to A-440, push both buttons simultaneously.
VISUAL METRONOME (BEAT/BAR INDICATOR)
During recording and playback, or during use of rhythm accompaniment, the LED
indicates the beat per minute value of the metronome. The dots in the LED flash
to indicate the particular beats in the measure.
13: VOICE SELECTION
The MIE-3XG Keyboard has 15 voices plus an ASSIGN button on the front panel.
These voices are arranged in columns that correspond to instrumental groupings.
In the Normal and Accompaniment modes only one voice can be selected. The
light next to the selected voice turns on when activated.
In Split and Ensemble modes, each side of the keyboard can select an individual
voice.
Additional voices can be sent to the ASSIGN button via the software.
To select the voice for the left side:
Press the LEFT button (located above the voice section) and then select the desired voice.
The lights above the selected voice and the Left button turn on.
To select the voice for the right side:
Press the RIGHT button and then select the desired voice.
The lights above the selected voice and the Right button turn on.
A student must always push the LEFT or RIGHT button before selecting a new voice for their side of the key-
board. Returning to Normal mode causes the timbre selection to automatically revert to the last voice selected
as the LEFT voice.
