The Live Set function is a convenient way to change among different Performances as you play songs on a setlist, for example.
On the MONTAGE M, you can create a Live Set simply by registering your favorite Performance to each slot.
You can register a Performance to the Live Set by following the procedure below.
Store the Performance you have just edited before registering the Performance to the Live Set. However, when you register to the Live Set and select Store As New Perf. and Register or Overwrite Current Perf. and Register, you do not need to store the Performance in advance.
When you select a different Performance or turn off the instrument without first storing the Performance, you will lose the edited settings you have made.
Here, the [LIVE SET] button needs to be fully lit or dimly lit.
The Live Set Register screen appears.
Move the cursor using the Slot number and Category name selection buttons, or tap the slot shown on the screen.
Store As New Perf. and Register: Store as a New Performance and register to the slot
Overwrite Current Perf. and Register: Overwrite the current Performance and register to the slot
Register without Storing: Register without storing the Performance first
The selected Performance is registered to the slot.
You can exchange the contents of two slots.
The Live Set Edit screen appears.
When the Live set page on the Preset bank or the Library bank is open, the Live Set Edit screen will not appear.
The JOB screen appears.
The Performances of the two slots will be exchanged.
If you wish the copy or exchange the entire bank or the entire Live set page, simultaneously hold down the [SHIFT] button and press the [EDIT/] button. Then the dialog box will appear.
You can also add Patterns, Songs, or Audio files to Live Set slots. This way, you can select a slot for playing back a desired Pattern, Song, or Audio file, and then play the Performance on the keyboard along with it.
The Live Set Edit screen appears.
