- SQ_ENSON.DK Help File
- Loading in the file SQ_ENSON.DK will setup Band-in-a-Box for the Ensoniq
- SQ1 and SQ2 multi-timbral synthesizers.
- It will setup:
- 1. Drum #'s for the Ensoniq SQ series All Purpose Kit (Patch 89).
- 2. Patch Map for the Ensoniq SQ series synths.
- 3. Startup Patches and Channels in the Midi Settings Window.
-
- Your SQ has to be setup to receive in a Multi-timbral fashion,meaning the
- ability to play more than one sound at a time. The SQ has its own built-in
- sequencer which has eight tracks. In making songs on the SQ,you first put
- together seperate sequences that will later be compiled into a song format.
- This is where setting up a Multi-timbral patch comes into play. Multi-
- timbral setups are done in a sequence patch using the TRACK buttons (1-8) as
- if you were about to sequence something from within the SQ.
-
