Selecting the function of the [FUNCTION] switch
Using the [FUNCTION] switch
One of four functions can be assigned to the [FUNCTION] switch, depending on the application.
Press the [UTILITY] key in Play mode or Edit
mode.
Press the right-most parameter select key.
Use the [VALUE+/–] key to select a function.
The following four functions are available:
● bd (Bank Down)
When you assign this function to the switch,
pressing the [FUNCTION] switch in Play mode
causes the bank with one number lower to be
recalled. (This is the reverse operation of the
[BANK▲] switch.) This function is useful when you
need to switch banks frequently during
performance.
● Mn (Manual)
When you assign this function to the switch, using
the [FUNCTION] switch enables you to toggle
between Play mode and Manual mode. In Manual
mode, you can use foot switches 1–3 and the
[BANK▲] switch to turn the effect module in its
entirety on and off.
In Manual mode, the following modules are
assigned to foot switches 1–3 and the [BANK▲]
switch:
Switch: Corresponding module
Foot switch 1 COMP/WAH
Foot switch 2 DIST
Foot switch 3 MOD
[BANK▲]switchREV/DLY
• You can also turn the module on and off by pressing and
holding the parameter select key. You can use this
method either in Play mode or Edit mode.
• You cannot turn the EQ module on and off using the foot
switches. Use the parameter select key.
● Ct (Control)
When you assign this function to the switch,
operating the [FUNCTION] switch enables you to
control the RTM function that changes a given
effect parameter or volume setting in real-time.
See page 14 for more information on the RTM
function.
● JP (Jam Play)
When you assign this function to the switch,
operating the [FUNCTION] switch enables you to
turn on and off the basic samplers (the Jam Play
function) that can record up to five seconds of
data. See page 9 for more information on the Jam
Play function.
Press the [GROUP/EXIT] key.
The 2100 returns to Play mode. The function
selection for the [FUNCTION] switch will reset to
the previous setting unless you store the patch. If
you wish to store this setting, store the patch.
