Dave Smith Instruments MOPHO KEYBOARD - Manual (Page 12)

Program —Press to return Mopho to program mode. Hold to select global mode.
Compare —When editing a Program, press Compare to hear the saved version.
Turn Compare off to return to the edited version. Compare can also be used to
audition write destinations when moving a program.
Write —Press Write to save the program and write any edits to memory. You can
write the program to the same location or choose a different program number
using Param 1; Param 2 chooses the bank. Press Inc/Yes to confirm the write
and Dec/No (or Write again) to abort.
While there is a write pending, press Compare to hear the program in the target
destination prior to saving. Just be sure to turn Compare off before you actually
hit the Inc/Yes switch to save.
Param 1 — Used to scroll through programs in program mode. In global mode,
used for scrolling through the global menu items.
Param 2 —Used to change banks in program mode and edit the displayed
parameter in edit and global modes.
Inc/Yes and Dec/No —Increment or decrement programs in program mode or
values in edit mode and global mode. Also used to confirm or cancel/abort an
operation.
Push It —Push It is a manual trigger. Its behavior depends upon the Push It
Mode, Note, and Velocity settings, which are programmable. Why is a manual
trigger necessary when there are already 32 other manual triggers (that is, the
keys)? It is surprsingly handy, especially in Toggle mode. It can be used to start
and stop the sequencer or to just latch a droning note on. And that frees up both
hands to twist knobs!
Tap Tempo —With Shift on, Push It becomes Tap Tempo for setting the internal
clock’s BPM.
If Push It is set to Toggle mode and Sequence and Shift are on, tap five times to
set the tempo and toggle the Push It Note on, starting the sequencer. That is, a 4-
count to set the tempo and then a tap on beat 1 to start. To stop, turn Shift off
and press Push It again.
Tap Tempo can also be used to change the tempo while a sequence is playing. If
Shift is on while a sequence is playing, tap the button 5 times and the sequence
speed will change to the tapped tempo on the fifth hit. You can continue to tap
the button, slowing down or speeding up, and the sequence tempo will adjust
accordingly. The sequence will average and smooth out any small timing
differences.
