hey charles, we all agree....Read the manual....it is your friend!! i also found the Prophet Users Manual Summary in the files section very handy seems to me that new people seem to encounter the 'panning' sound output issue, and also how to play the internal sounds maybe it would be an idea to add a section to the Prophet Users Manual Summary for these two points. just my two cents --- In prophet2000@yahoogroups.com, "midi pascal" <charles.copp@...> wrote: > > henrik read the manual for gods sake man!!! > > these are things you'll need to know if you want to be successfull at your p2000. > > its just not a game of spin the dial and make a sound ... > > you must actually know what your doing with the key assign ,keysplit,user map . > > to make full use of this thing takes some amount of time ... > and don't rely on what other people tell you either !!! they could be wrong or don't kow , thats why i say read the manual......but then we wouldn't hear from you would we? > > > execute sucks , i do not use theis feature. it has couple different uses > > do not use a disk to boot . > > ok be kind > > charles > --- Original Message ----- > From: Henrik > To: prophet2000@yahoogroups.com > Sent: Tuesday, May 05, 2009 5:34 AM > Subject: Re: [prophet2000] Re: Problem with built in sounds > > > > > I also tried to figure out how to make the built in presets work. On my p2k I can hear 12 presets. Some of them are layered sounds, some have kbd split in two sounds and some presets numbers contain the same sound. > > When I tried what you describe hear (to press the Execute in "sound number" mode so that a dot appears), there´s no sound in the upper third of the keyboard. Without the dot there´s sound on the entire keyboard.
