Meaning of "T1" and "T2" when editing certain parameters

[Tom Georges]

Hi - I recently acquired a PX-5S and was curious about the meaning of "T1" and "T2" that I see when editing certain parameters.  An example is when assigning a Target to a controller like a slider when doing an edit of a Stage setting.  I see that you can have separate targets for T1 and T2 - but what in the world is that?  I've searched this forum and also the manuals but can't find anything about these.

 

Here are a couple of photos of the display showing the same parameter but with T1 and then T2 selected (by going left or right with the zone select buttons)

T1 and T2 means exactly what you have noticed, Target 1 and Target 2.  That means one slider, for example, can control 2 different parameters at once, like hex layer tone layer 2 volume and layer 3 volume.  The possible combinations of parameters are vast and useful for all sorts of tricks.

Ah - interesting!  Thanks so much, Brad!  I didn't even consider that possibility.  Lots of power under the hood of this beast!

Looking again at the manual, this information is indeed there - I just didn't notice it.  When I searched, I searched for "T1" and "T2" but that doesn't actually appear anywhere - it's "Target 1" and "Target 2" as you said (on top of page E-8 in the "User's Guide (Tutorial)" manual.
