Radias - Disable 16 Keys for Program Select

Post by drewspuppet »

Just wondering if there is a way to disable the 16 Keys/ Program select.

Just picked up a Radias. Been a lot of fun so far.

No complaints.. but YeaH will take a while to NOT accidently lose edits due to program changes. Is there anyway to disable the Program 16 Keys option?

Been making some drum beats and it's actually pretty slick for putting down notes/steps in a typical step xox step sequence way. Editing the velocity kind of annoying and haven't figured out if there is a way to edit different velocities for notes that are on same step. Didn't buy it for drum purposes anyway but it's fun to play with.

Are there any settings anyway to deter program change/loss ... or is it just Save often and use Edit Mode?

If you're in edit mode (press EDIT/Yes) then the 16 keys should turn to page-select, not program change.

Also you can put them in keyboard mode using a button somewhere to the left (I forget right now).

You can't set different velocities for different notes on the same step. It is quite a fun groove machine though. Not quite an electribe as there's no pattern sequencing, But 16 programmable drums and polyphonic sequencing (with keyboard input pitch shift) is pretty awesome. Then add in the arpeggiator too.. This machine was the basis for most of my music for about 5 years.
