VOICE PERF SONG PATTERN MIX MASTER REMOTE UTILITY QUICK SET FILE Master Edit The Master Edit mode lets you create your own original Master programs-containing up to four different Zones (keyboard areas)-by editing the various parameters. In the Master mode, you can divide the keyboard into (up to) four independent areas (called "Zones"). To each Zone can be assigned different MIDI channels and different functions of the Knobs and Control Sliders. This makes it possible to control several Parts of the multi-timbral tone generator simultaneously by a single keyboard or to control Voices of an external MIDI instrument over several different channels in addition to the internal Voices of this synthesizer itself-letting you use the MOX6/MOX8 to effectively do the work of several keyboards. There are two types of Master Edit displays: those for editing parameters common to all four Zones and those for editing individual Zones. This section explains the parameters for Common Edit and Part Edit.
