7. Another way to divide SINGLE patches would be to make the SINGLE patch dependent on the key velocity the force with which you strike the key STRINGS for light strokes and BRASS for heavier strokes for example Example BRASS 1 Heavy strokes 10 3 Layering sounds Overlapping SINGLE patches with slightly different tunings or with complementary tones produces a richer fuller sound Example IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII E lt STRINGS Doe 9 STRINGS _ _ SINGLE patches with slightly different tunings STRINGS TI 4 Using the K11I as MIDI sound sources If you assign a different MIDI receive channel to each SINGLE patch in the MULTI patch the K11I simultaneously performs as eight or nine using DRUM SECTION different MIDI sound sources Since these can include the K11I s built in DRUM SECTION and percussion sounds a sequencer other external controller can use a single for everything from rhythm to harmony Example MIDI channel 1 STRINGS MIDI channel 2 PIANO MIDI channel 3 BASS MIDI channel 4 DRUM SECTION MIDI channel 5 BRASS b Playing one tone patch on the 1 keyboard while MIDI sequencer plays another Jj uj Moz eene Re geet a KIN 6 Combinations of the above The 1 gives you complete freedom to combine SINGLE patches any way you wish Example HET Piano Bass Brass Vibraphone 11
