We consciously did not make use of any other Controllers in the Performance Set, as their default settings

would often deviate from those found in the Performance and would thus introduce unwanted changes to the

Performance. Any additional Controllers can always be added if required. The send function of the knobs

can be helpful here.

It makes sense to store all song specific modifications to a Performance as a new USER Performance

(STORE), and to store those settings within the song as a BULK DUMP 1 Perf

, just to be on the safe side.

This also means that the Performance need not be in the USER Bank when the song is to be played back at

a later time.

The Song Setups contain no Sys-Ex events to set up the system effect types for Chorus and Reverb, as the

actual settings stored in the Performance are used for Multi Parts 5 - 16. The Variation Effect is only available

to the Performance Layers, not the Multi Parts.

Song Production in Seven Steps

This section will serve as a quick overview of the steps required for Performance Mode song production with

the CS2x.

You may choose a Performance (MIDI Ch. 1) and 12 Multi Parts (MIDI Ch. 5 - 16) for your song production.

You can then customise your Performance using the rotary controllers and EDIT function at the keyboard

and then store your modifications. The Multi Parts need to be set up from your sequencer program using

MIDI events.

Step 1: Preparation

You should set the CS2x UTILITY = LOCAL OFF, assuming both MIDI Interfaces are cabled for two-way

communication. This disconnects the keyboard from the tone generation part and only sends MIDI data to

the sequencer (MIDI out). If its MIDI Thru function is enabled, the sequencer will in turn echo (re-send)

incoming data to the CS2x tone generation section (MIDI in), including any modifications arising from each

track’s playback parameters (e.g. Transpose, Velocity). This means that you will only hear the sound of the

currently selected sequencer track when playing the keyboard, not the PEFORMANCE.

It is also a good idea to verify the RCV-CH setting. Normally Layer 1 (i.e. the Performance) is set to Ch1,

whilst Parts 5 to 16 will use their corresponding MIDI channels (Part 5 = Ch5, Part 6 = Ch6, etc.). To do this,

select each Part with the PART/LAYER Taste (left of the display). Sometimes the MIDI channels are changed

without your intervention; this can happen for example when playing back a song that has routed two Parts

to the same MIDI channel via Sys-Ex (Layer sounds!).

Alternatively, the correct default MIDI channel settings can be restored via a system Reset (hold down but-

tons 7, 8 and 9 simultaneously and switch on the machine), although all factory USER Performances will be

re-initialised, erasing any of your own creations in the process.

Another thing to bear in mind is that the CS2x is always in the so-called “Performance Top Mode”, not in

EDIT Mode, during the following sound change descriptions. Otherwise all received sound control data

would be ignored.

Step 2 = Setting up the Performance

Find a suitable Preset or User Performance which can act as a basic structure for your song creation and

then change the sound to match your ideas. You can use the PERFORMER to do this if you are working with

LOGIC or CUBASE. Save your modified sound as a new Performance with STORE.
