Using Technichord |
|
This is one of my favorite features on the KN keyboard and in my humble opinion, very under-used. Technichord offers wonderful opportunities to greatly enhance the way you sound, but most people I have encountered simply use the feature in it's default state which is either RIGHT 1 or RIGHT 2, unaware that it can be assigned to almost all of the remaining parts. Plus the fact that you can give any of those parts any sound you wish via the PART SETTING mode, and furthermore, as if that wasn't enough, you then have the option of selecting a particular type of Technichord from a choice of several. It really is a wonderfully valuable asset and here is how to use it: 1. Press and hold down the Technichord button until the display changes 2. The new display shows you what Technichord type is selected at present 3. Press 'Display Hold' 4. Now go up a page and you are in Orchestrator Part Conduct 5. This will be showing either Right 1 or Right 2 6. From here you simply select the part you want to play your technichord 7. You now go to 'Part Setting' and assign any sound you want to it. |
| IMPORTANT The very essence of how well the Technichord sounds is down to a particular factor, and that is VOLUME. So be extremely careful with it as it can make or break you. I find that between 60 and 90 is suitable for most needs but perhaps a little higher when using a big band registration. |
