[. . . ] When the FX Mode is set to "bypass, " the effects are turned off on a global scale. This includes Effects programmed in the preset. FX MODE enabled Effects Multi Mode Control The routing scheme for the two stereo effects processors provides a lot of versatility. When in multi mode, you can "use master settings" which applies the Master effects settings to all 32 MIDI channels. FX MULTIMODE CONTROL use master settings If you want more control, you can use the "channel" setting which applies the effects settings of the preset on a specified channel to all the other channels. Changing the preset on the specified channel changes the effect. FX MULTIMODE CONTROL preset on channel 1 If you are in Omni or Poly modes this parameter is disabled and the message in parentheses explains that MP-7 is currently in Omni mode.

"Edit All Layers" is an Edit menu feature which allows you to select all layers (the letter "A" appears in the layer field) in order to edit all four layers simultaneously. Because this feature can be confusing to the beginning programmer, it can be disabled here in the Global menu. EDIT ALL LAYERS enabled User Key Tuning User Key Tuning lets you create and modify 12 user definable tuning tables. The initial frequency of every key can be individually tuned, facilitating the creation of alternate or microtonal scales. Using the cursor keys and the data entry control, select the user table number, the key name, the coarse tuning and the fine tuning. The fine tuning is variable from 00 to 63 in increments of 1/64 of a semitone (approx. For each preset, the specific tuning table is selected in the Preset Edit menu.
