Hex layer question

[mididiot]

Is it possible to initalize a new hex layer patch and save it in the data editor?

I haven't seen any tutorials dealing with that.

What do you mean by initialize?  There are user Hex Layer tones that are all at zero (default settings).  Any tone can be saved to the computer from the data editor.

Do you mean how to create a Hex Layer from scratch?  If yes, this is how I would do it:

1. Select a Stage Setting that you don't use.  I usually play with the No Change (3-2) Stage Setting.

2. Select either Tone Z1 or Tone Z2 tab.

3. Click on the Tone Data Selector button (this is the button just below the Stage Setting tab.

3.1 Select Type=User & Timbre=Hex Layer

3.2 Scroll down the list until you see the Data Name "Hex User 0xx".

3.4 Select the first one or any one with Hex User in it.

4. The Tone Zone editor will now change to a Hex Layer editor with all layers defaulting to Sin Wave.

5. Experiment to your heart's content and share your Hex Layer.  Click on the Save (Disk) button to save the Hex Layer Tone (ZLT).

 

You can now use your User Hex Layer in any Stage Setting's Tone Z1 and/or Tone Z2.

 

Hope this helps.

Thank you both for the reply. I've got it now. I'll be sharing some things I'm working on.
