The Controls & Connectors [REAL TIME LOOP REMIX] Button (Page 239) Turns the real-time loop remix function on or off. The indicator lights when the real-time remix feature is on. [SAMPLE EDIT] Button (Page 241) Engages the SAMPLE EDIT mode. The indicator lights when the SAMPLE EDIT mode is active. [STANDBY START/STOP] Button (Page 229) Switches to the sampling mode, and starts/stops the sampling operation. [REC VOLUME] Control Adjusts the input level of the analog signal appearing at the INPUT L and R connectors. Used for sample recording and A/D input. When the optional AIEB2 I/O expansion board is installed, additional DIGITAL IN and OPTICAL IN inputs are available, but the [REC VOLUME] control does not affect the input level of these inputs. 3 MIDI IN/OUT Indicator The appropriate lamp will flash when MIDI data is received or transmitted by the RS7000. Use this indicator to confirm MIDI data reception or transmission. 4 [MASTER VOLUME] Control Adjusts the level of the signal appearing at the RS7000 OUTPUT L/MONO and R connectors as well as the PHONES jack. When the optional AIEB2 I/O expansion board is installed, additional ASSIGNABLE OUT (AS1 ~ 6), DIGITAL OUT, and OPTICAL OUT outputs are available, but the [MASTER VOLUME] control does not affect the level of these outputs. 5 Display This backlit LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) displays all information and parameters necessary for operation of the RS7000. 6 [Knob 1] ~ [Knob 4] These four knobs adjust the parameter values which appear directly above them in the display. Rotating a knob while holding then [SHIFT] button allows coarse adjustment at approximately 10x the normal rate. 7 [F1] ~ [F4] Function Buttons Select parameters appearing on the bottom line of the LCD, execute functions, and switch between display pages. When more than one parameter is assigned to a single function knob ([Knob 1] ~ [Knob 4]), the corresponding function button can be used to select the parameter to be edited. When a function knob is active (i.e. it can be used to perform a function), the corresponding indicator will light. When a numeric parameter is to be edited, in some cases the SUB MODE buttons can be used as a numeric keypad for direct numeric data entry while the [SHIFT] and related function button ([F1] ~ [F4]) is held (Page 66). 8 SEQUENCE PLAY FX Controls In addition to the functions described here, these knobs are fully assignable and can be set up to control a wide range of functions and parameters. Since the knobs allow continuous parameter control for the selected track, they can be used for creative real-time performance sound control. 2 functions can be assigned to each knob, selected by the [SELECT] button to their right, allowing the three knobs to control up to 6 different parameters or functions. The default assignments for these knobs are the main PLAY EFFECT and MIDI DELAY parameters. Refer to "Chapter 2: The Pattern mode", pages 87 and 90, for more information on PLAY EFFECTS and MIDI DELAY. [BEAT STRETCH/GATE TIME] Knob [CLOCK SHIFT/MIDI DELAY] Knob SEQUENCE PLAY FX SELECT BEAT STRETCH CLOCK SHIFT SWING GATE TIME MIDI DELAY VELOCITY [SWING/VELOCITY] Knob [SELECT] Button [BEAT STRETCH/GATE TIME] Knob With the initial default settings, this knob provides realtime control of the PLAY FX BEAT STRETCH and GATE TIME parameters. BEAT STRETCH compresses or expands the length of measures (Page 89), while GATE TIME alters the gate time of the notes (Page 88). [CLOCK SHIFT/MIDI DELAY] Knob With the initial default settings, this knob provides realtime control of the PLAY FX CLOCK SHIFT and MIDI DELAY parameters. CLOCK SHIFT shifts the timing of notes (Page 89), while MIDI DELAY adjusts the delay time of the MIDI DELAY effect (Page 91). RS7000 13
