VOLUME
When multiple instruments are played simultaneously from the keyboard ("layered"), it is
essential to balance the relative volumes of each sound. The VOLUME function specifies an
initial volume level for each of the four keyboard zones.
To set the volume, press and hold the desired ZONE switch. Press the FUNCTION 3 switch, then
release both switches. The ZONE switch will blink. Use the DATA slider to adjust the value as
indicated on the LED display. If no initial volume message is desired, adjust the slider until a
dash (-) appears on the display. Press the blinking switch to exit edit mode.
The overall volume level for all four zones as a group may be adjusted with the Master Volume
slider. This slider is linked with the four initial volume settings for each zone, so that as the
master volume is changed the relative volume among the four zones is maintained.
TRANSPOSE
It is often desirable to shift the pitch of a sound my some interval up or down. This is especially
useful in layered presets. To set the transpose interval, press and hold the desired ZONE switch,
and press the FUNCTION 4 switch. Release both switches. The display will indicate the current
value in semitones (the total transpose range is plus and minus two octaves). Adjust the value
with the DATA slider. Press the blinking switch to exit edit mode.
CHANNEL
Each keyboard zone can be programmed to transmit on any one of the sixteen MIDI channels.
To set the channel, press and hold the desired ZONE switch, and press the FUNCTION 2 switch
twice. Release both switches. The Zone switch will blink. The display will now indicate the
MIDI CHANNEL for the zone, which may be changed with the slider. Press the blinking switch
to exit the edit mode.
VELOCITY
Most sound modules can produce a wide range of instrument sounds, and each sound requires
an appropriate keyboard playing technique. The Velocity parameter of the SL-1100 is used to
adjust the keyboard dynamic sensitivity for the best response or "feel" for a given instrument
sound. To adjust the keyboard velocity sensitivity, press and hold the desired ZONE switch.
Press the FUNCTION 3 switch twice, then release both switches. The ZONE switch will blink.
Use the DATA slider to adjust the velocity sensitivity from -5 through 5 (select 3 for normal
positive velocity). Press the blinking switch to exit edit mode.
The chart below indicates the relationship between keyboard playing force and MIDI velocity
values for various settings of the Velocity parameter.
The chart shows that for a setting of zero, any key that is depressed will issue a MIDI velocity
value of 64, regardless of the actual key velocity. As the parameter is moved toward larger
positive values, the range of MIDI velocities is increased. At a setting of positive 3, all MIDI
output values may be transmitted depending on actual key velocity. At the maximum parameter
value of positive 5, it is very easy to issue MIDI note-on velocities anywhere between 1 and 127.
The negative settings for this parameter may be used to create special "cross-fade" effects.
Create a preset with two active zones, and set one zone for a negative velocity sensitivity. As the
keys are played with increasing force, the sound from the first zone will decrease in intensity,
while the sound from the second zone will increase (Demonstration Preset 4 is configured for a
velocity cross-fade).

The left slider on the SL-1100 front panel can be programmed to issue any MIDI control change
message. To set the controller number, press and hold a ZONE switch. Press the FUNCTION 4
switch twice, then release both switches. Use the DATA slider to set the controller number (if no
controller is desired, adjust the slider to display a dash "-"). To exit edit mode, press the blinking switch.

The two control wheels on the Studio-1100 are dedicated to PITCH and MOD functions. The
wheels may be switched on and off for each zone (both will be enabled or both will be disabled
per zone). First press and hold the specific ZONE switch. Press the FUNCTION 2 switch three
times, then release both switches. The LED display will indicate On or OFF. Use the DATA
slider to change the setting. To exit the edit mode, press the blinking switch.
The SL-1100 will transmit aftertouch, which allows expressive musical control during the course
of a note. The aftertouch value is determined by the total key pressure on all depressed keys
("channel pressure").
To enable or disable the aftertouch, press and hold a desired zone switch. Press the
FUNCTION 3 switch three times. Adjust the data slider to change the display to ON or OFF.
Press the blinking switch to exit edit mode.
Note: Not all sound modules respond to MIDI aftertouch (channel pressure) messages.
The SL-1100 is equipped with a voltage input for external analog controllers such as a voltage pedal
(available from your Master Controller Keyboard dealer). The pedal input is set to adjust the master
volume (same as front panel slider) but may be reprogrammed to issue any MIDI control change
message.
To set the controller number, press and hold a ZONE switch. Press FUNCTION 4 switch 3 times.
Release both switches. Use the DATA slider to set the controller number (if no controller is
desired, adjust the slider to display a dash "-"). To exit edit mode, press the blinking ZONE
switch. The default setting for this input is controller #7. This value is not issued directly as the
input changes, but is scaled by the initial volume setting for the zone. All other controller
numbers will cover the range from 0 to 127 as the pedal is moved.
The Sustain input on the SL-1100 back panel may be used with an external footswitch. A MIDI
control change message (#64) will be issued on each zone when the footswitch is actuated. To
enable or disable the sustain messages, press and hold a desired zone switch. Press and hold
the sustain pedal, and then press the Function 4 switch 3 times. Adjust the data slider to change
the display to ON or OFF. Press the blinking zone switch to exit edit mode.
