5.3. REALTIME DISPLAY
MAIN DISPLAY
This real-time display consists of two frames (Left and Right):
| Frame L | Frame R |
| Player A | Player B |
the active part is the one whose letter is outlined in white (here subframe A is active).
FRAME L
Frame L shows:
- In the first line
- (By Style), or the instrument or timbre on the left hand (accordion) or on the left of the split point for pianists (SYNSTRGS1 in the example). Select the left or right channel volume comtrols, bottom right near the master volume control, to change the instrument or timble
- In the second line
- instrument group from which the instrument or timbre was selected (STRINGS in the example). (Hmmm, not sure "instrument group" is correct .. GS)
- In the third line
- the MIDI configuration ACCORDION (Figure 25) or Split (piano/organ keyboard) (Figure 26).
- In Keyboard Mode
- Split indicates the note where the left/right split is made. By clicking Split you may adjust the split point.
- In Accordion Mode
- The left and right hands are physically separated, so the Split indicator does not appear.
- In Organ Mode:
- VA2 recognizes chords for accompaniment only left from the Split point! From the Split point to the right end of the keys you can play melody!
The dashes after [ACCORDION] or [C3] indicates the agreement recognized and played by the arranger (U.S. encryption) when it is in operation.
The Mode is selected from the Options button MIDI PORTS...
FRAME R
Frame R shows:
- In the first line
- selected instrument or timbre for the right hand of an accordion or the right side of the split point for piano and organ (ROCK PIANO in the example above).
- In the second line
- the group stamp RIGHT voice (PIANO in the example)
- In the third line
- the tone of the second voice (VIOLA in the example).
