I am afraid it is not possible, you need a little mixer to make it.

Thanks a lot Brad, I will try both the options. 

Hello everybody, I hope you are going fine. It’s a couple of days I am trying to solve a problem between my PX5 and a Blofeld Desk. This is the issue: I have a Stage splitted in two parts, with Brass (zone 1) in the lower part and a Synth (zone 2) in the upper. I also prepared the zone 3 with a sound from the Blofeld that I would like to switch on/off during the song alternating with zone 2. Now, using the pedal, I can switch on/off the zone 2, but I don’t know how to switch on/off the mid out of the zone 3 without going to the stage/edit/midi setting through the display, too much stuff to press into a second! Sorry if the topic was already discussed, but I could not find anything to solve the problem.

You can try flute waveform with HEX LAYER editing/ tweaking.

Waveforms don't have vibrato effect.

 

Good, I will try it!  I would like a percussive flute that sounds fine even with sixteen notes repeated. Any hint is welcome

Hello-I'm looking for. Classical flute sound to cover the Marshall Tucker Band 'Can't you See.' Does anyone have a suggestion or can suggest an existing patch? thanks in advance!

From what  I have seen there is only a flute sound that comes already sampled with vibrato. It's a good sound indeed, but I would like to add myself the effect. I tried to eliminate the vibrato from the sound but it seems impossible to me. I am thinking about adding a keyboard or at least an expander to complete the px5s

At the end I got the VFP2/15 dual pedal, it works fine.

Are anybody using this pedal in the title? It is a dual sustain pedal with 2 cables and I want to buy it. Since I had a bad experience with a Roland one that often when releasing the pedal didn't stop sustain, I would like to avoid any other bad surprises. Another pedal I could buy is the M-Audio SP-DUAL, anyone knows it?

I have found something similar in a layer of the "Super PX" Stage Setting. Not exactly the same, but it's a good starting point. Is there a way in the editor to keep all the setting for a layer and change just the wave? It could be very useful sometimes.

Hi everybody, could you help me to make this sound? Maybe it is a guitar, I don't know, but I would like to have it on a key for a cover song.

Thank you algx, very clear, but what I mean about first question is that sometimes I find default tones with chorus, delay and reverb all at 127, that is not a good live set. So I would like to have an idea about which values it is better not to overcome, just for a starting point.

For the second question you have centered the point, but what I need is a practice example. In the case of an Alto sax, I found that a little choir in the background helps a little to swell the sound and I wish to put together just another tone, but I don't know wich one will sound better, maybe a triangle wave or a saw one? another one? Experimenting all the chances could be exhausting, so here again I would like to listen to an expert opinion.

Actually the third question is not very important, I am just curious to see what users think not to have in the PX5S... maybe a cup of coffee?

I know that the best way is to experiment case by case, but I am looking for some hints and tricks to start and save time to play instead of programming. I will appreciate very much any help.

1. Which values of reverb, chorus and delay you consider reasonable for pads, strings, brasses and solos in a live performance with a little band (four or five elements)?

2. Is there a way to swell a solo sound that seems too tiny, for example an alto sax?

3. Which expander or little keyboard you find to be more complementary to PX5S in a pop/rock band?

Hi Ebonivor, nice surprise! I did not expect this explanation, you gave me a couple of answers to some questions that I was wondering. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the answer BradMZ, it's ok, my pedal 2 target is "Zone On/Off" the min and max value are set to  0 and 127 respectively, the On Rate and Off Rate are set to 0 and 127 and the edit>stage setting>zone>controller>pedal enable....is ON for the zone I want to switch and OFF for the others....... but It doesn't work, I also tried with System-Stage Set Filter-Pedal 2 at ON and then at "Stage Inc", but neither of them works. That pedal seems to work fine just like Pedal 1 (sustain) and not for other purposes. Tomorrow I'll ask a friend of mine to lend me another switch pedal and I'll do another test. Auff, what a stress! but I love too much this keyboard and don't want give up it now.

I got it, ON and OFF rate must be both at 127. Thank you!

His pedal was set to min 127 and max 127.  Both of those are ON message values.  He needed an OFF message value of "0" as min.  

 

Nothing has changed in terms of switching two zones at once. 

 

For your situation, check that edit>stage setting>zone>controller>pedal enable....is ON for the zone you want to switch.

That worked - thanks guys.  Schoolboy error

I know has been passed  three years now, I'm sorry, but I don't understand which was your error and how did it work since nobody gave you a valid solution. I am having the same issue with the switch pedal that comes with PX5S, engaged as pedal 2. I set up everything as you said but I can't manage to switch on/off the  zone, maybe it is not the right pedal or maybe there are some other set to do, I don't understand. Finally BradMZ said there is no way to turn ON one zone, and AT THE SAME TIME, turn OFF a different zone.....all with ONE press of Pedal 2. Is it still like it or has something changed in these years? It would be great!
