To make settings for keys on the key control block, select
a bank and keyer using the delegation buttons.
The key type selection buttons, key fill/key source
selection buttons, key modifier buttons, and chroma key
setting buttons are assigned to the setting buttons. The
functions set in each button can be viewed in the setting
buttons display section.
The settings button assignments for different functions are
spread over three pages (1/3, 2/3, 3/3), and you can switch
between them using the [PAGE] button.
Setting parameters
If there are parameters available for the selected function,
the set value for each item appears on the display.
The parameters are adjusted using five adjustment knobs
similar to the menu panel (numbered 1 to 5 from the top).
When there are six or more parameters, the [MORE]
button is lit amber. Press the [MORE] button, turning it on
green, to display the 6th and subsequent parameters
(parameter group [2/2]).
You can set a parameter when the button is lit green. If the
button for the parameter you want to set is lit amber, press
the button, turning it on green, and then set the value.
