[. . . ] However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: · Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. · Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. · Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. [. . . ] See the diagram entitled "Combination structure and corresponding pages. " Effects The output of each timbre is sent to the insert effect, the master effects, and the master EQ. You can use the mixer section to freely specify how the audio signals will be routed. There is one insert effect and two master effects, and for each of these you can choose one of 89 effect types. The master EQ is a stereo three-band EQ. Note: The effect settings created and saved with a program in Program mode are not used in Combination mode. Effect settings are made independently for the combination. Overview of Combi mode parameters Select a program for each timbre In the COMBI 0: Play, Prog page (or COMBI 1: Ed­ Tone Adjust, Prog page), select a program for each timbre. Status and MIDI settings In the COMBI 2: Ed­Track Param, MIDI page, set "Status" to INT for the timbres that you want to play, and set their MIDI channel to the global MIDI channel. Arpeggiator A combination can use two arpeggiators (dual polyphonic arpeggiators). You can select the arpeggio pattern, specify the range in which the arpeggio is generated, and specify the region of notes (keys) or velocities that will trigger the arpeggiator.

The other pages let you modify the sound in more detailed ways. · Select and play combinations. · Select a program for each timbre, and set status, pan, and level. (Same as the 1: Ed­ Tone Adjust parameters; can be edited from either page. ) · Select an arpeggio pattern and make settings. To indicate that you are listening to the saved version, the button's LED will light up. Pressing [COMPARE] button again returns you to the version you are editing, and the LED will go out again. If you edit while the COMPARE LED is lit, the button will again go dark and your previous edits will be lost. 63 Combination Program 0: Play Setup Introduction Selecting a program for each timbre Playing and Editing Combinations MIDI filter settings Here you can specify whether the MIDI data sent and received by timbres 1­8 will be filtered. Layers, Splits, and Velocity switches Within a Combination, you can use note number and velocity to determine which Timbres will sound. The Programs assigned to each Timbre can sound in three ways: as part of a layer, a split, or a velocity switch. A Combination can be set to use any one of these methods, or to use two or more of these methods simultaneously. If a check box is checked, the corresponding MIDI data can be sent and received. If "Status" is INT, movements of the X5's controllers or incoming MIDI data will apply an effect for the program of that timbre. (Effect Dynamic Modulation functionality is not affected by these settings. ) If the "Status" is EXT or EX2, movements of the X5's controllers will transmit MIDI data on the channel of that timbre. MIDI transmit/receive settings for the entire X5 are made in "MIDI Filter" (GLOBAL 1). If a check box is unchecked, the corresponding MIDI data will not be sent or received. As another example, let's say that you've selected a bass Program for Timbre 1, and a piano Program for Timbre 2, with the goal of creating a bass/ piano split. You could make the following settings so that pressing the damper pedal affects only Timbre 2's piano sound: 1. [. . . ] Has your computer detected the connected X5?
