thanks heaps - gr8!

Hi brains trust I need to play Jump (Van Halen), wondering if anyone has already gotten the sound as close as possible, and is happy to share? Cheers & thanks in advance Rusty

Getting there, will write it all up later today (got the PX560 patch file, enabled Reaper for CASIO MIDI & program changes, triggered individual voices as desired, but with multiple Reaper tracks one voice will affect voices on other tracks) - 1. what port should the MIDI in port be ideally set to - A, B or C? Or does it not matter? 2. should I send each voice / part / stem / track to separate MIDI channels? 3. Should the Keyboard Channel parameter in the MIDI section (second screen of menu's) remain at 1 (default) or be changed to something else? Thanks to all for your input & advice, greatly appreciated

Awesome! And thanks so much. It'll take me a while to digest all that, but thanks for reaching out & sharing this. I'll come back with a progress report as I try to put this into action. Thanks again

Hi and thanks in advance I would like to play back MIDI scores (say from Reaper) through my PX560, and need to understand a couple of things. 1. the voice mappings of PX560 voices to MIDI - so that I can call the correct voice 2. do I need to assign each voice (piano, cello, flute etc) to a separate channel? I've been looking but haven't found a guide that points me at what I need to set up a score to play back through the PX. Would greatly appreciate the forum's advice, pointers & links to relevant information. Rusty

Awesome & thanks! For completeness I had a slightly different path to get there, based on initially selecting Hex100 (Africa) as the tone. edit (at the voice screen)>edit>layer>layer2>pitch>coarse tune (-5 on layer 2) This gave me the voice in 4ths, sounds great. Now saved as my Africa4ths voicing. I'm running Firmware 01.10, which may account for the pathing difference. Again, thanks so much, really appreciated.

OK - not sure how to do the detune. Thought it was Select Tone (e.g. hex100) / Edit / Pitch / Detune - but not altering the pitch Manual isn't clear - do you have a 101 "steps 1-10 how-to" for this on the PX560?

DaveMcM got it in 1 😀

Hi gurus, I want to play a (fast) live line that is harmonised in perfect 4ths. Can I play it? Yes I can? Will I fluff it if I haven’t practiced it recently? Probably. Is there an on board voice that already does this? Or should I select a voice, de-tune Upper Part 2 by a 4th and save it in my voice bank? Thanks in advance & apology if this is already covered. Appreciate the forum’s knowledge bank and sharing spirit. Gordon

Hi, I'm unsure of the precise language needed, so not sure how to search this in the forum. Please forgive me going where I'm sure others have been. I play with a number of bands, all needing different setups. I use the PX560M as my main keyboard (love it), with a Hammond XK1 on top. I want to - save my current registration bank as BAND1 - then be able to re-load it. This will allow me to have setups ready for each band. Could someone point me at a "how to"? Thanks in advance Rusty

Hi, I'd like to bring the cymbal volume in the ride bass (factory PX-560M bass voice 003) up a bit. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks Rusty

Thanks BradMZ, done & all good. Really appreciate. So I share my learing, the path was Tone / Edit / Effect / DSP / LFO Rate. Slowed the oscillation rate to match the song tempo, saved as user tone with my naming convention, blended with another tone. Wow, amazing sound adaptability in a simple interface. Thanks again Brad, thanks Forum.

Hi, on PX560M, I'd like to edit (slow down) the wah speed of Electric Piano tone 45 (Wah Clavi 2). Clueless. Help greatly appreciated? Rusty
